The hatch garnish is plastic. also the base of the raised spoiler is also plastic.

yeah it's kind of funny cause the raised spoiler seems kind of like an afterthought thing because it's just the garnish with 2 holes drilled into it to fit the upper spoiler part

I also think Josh that you have mistakenly thought that he is asking how it would look if 2 spoilers were installed but I don't think that's what he meant. I think he's asking what people think about those two spoilers.
ah thanks for the clarification, and yes, i had no intentions of mounting the raised spoiler on my current gs wing, that would look just plain stupid. ive seen a mazda speed wing and it (sorry) just screamed rice to me being that these are fwd cars
Well thats good then, I was kinda like WTF..

I guess its a good thing my car is AWD then to take advantage of the extra down force from my big a-- wing.

I have this lip garnish on my car, I think it might look cool with a RS spoiler.

was always going to try it but never got around.

I do not think the garnish ever came in metal either. just plastic.

Sure I can get some up by weeks end.

It is the lower lip off of the GTR spoiler. bought it off of someone here on the forum years ago, he didn't like the look of it. Took some work to get it fitted properly, re made a mold for it and re fiber-glassed the underside and installed bolts to fit it. I thought about making reproductions of it, but there was never enough interest. I might re make it in CF.

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

If you make replicas of that Josh, you've definitely got my interest.

In CF or FG?... I have been pondering making a replica of it in CF.

You know this got me thinking SRD back in the day made a full CF replica garnish, and I NEVER see anyone with one... Weird that no one has hung onto one.
