    Ive been thinking about gettin one of these, getting a bit tired of the stock look, I dont want to radically change the appereance of the car only some tasteful touches, I have yet to see a yellow new edge with a saleen wing.
    I have a few ??
    do I have to drill holes other than the ones already there?
    Ive heard fitment on Saleen products sucks, anyone have experience with this?
    would it be better to try to go with a whole different trunk instead of drilling holes on mine?
    and last Id appreciate some pics, Jimmy, Chad I know you guys have them... Talk to me!!

    no matter what decklid you have you will need to drill more holes. there are 2 on each side of the trunk up toward the back window, and 1 on each side in the back of the decklid. i have also heard the fitment sucks of actual saleen products. i have one on my car but it is an aftermarket brand... not sure what brand, i bought it used...

    i have noticed that on true saleen spoilers, that the left side of it kind of warps up a bit.

    mine came on the car when i bought it.

    It is a real Saleen product. to say the least I expeted a WAYYYYY better product from them.

    I like the look BUT.


    1. it fits like shit.
    2. it squeaks and rattles.
    3. it hits the fenders and leaft scratches. you MUST put some little rubber pieces on there to keep it from scratching. I will provide pics.
    4. 3rd brake light does not fit the opening it is made for.
    5. light will turn PINK.

    other than that NO PROBLEM. LOL
