Well the price structure are similar to bodykit, which mean depends on original or copy, material it made from.......etc! I've seen them from $100-$850

which material are you after? you can choose from fibreglass to aluminium or carbonfibre, even kevlar if you're really keen... be prepared to pay big dollars for them though'...

and don't forget you need to pay more $$ to get the bootlid patched up as well...

if it's $500 just for the wing alone, you could get an aluminium job or maybe even fibreglass (with aluminium posts)... just bear in mind that aluminium wings tend to have sharp edges and hence easily defectable by cops for safety reasons.

oh and if you don't want ugly holes on your bootlid, expect to pay about another $300 to get it patched up and repainted... (from memory there are about 8 mounting holes altogether for the factory spoiler 8O )

im still tossing up between the veilside rear wing and a gt rear wing.
if i got a veilside does it cover the holes in the boot lid or will they need to be recreated?

I am new with this, is carbon fibre better than aluminium and fibreglass? if so why? Which one would u personally go after.
I had know this gt wing for 280 ... can anyone tell me what material that could be made out of? does that include fitting usually?

for $280 it would usually be made out of aluminium and i doubt it will incl fitting either...

carbonfibre is much better than aluminium or fibreglass because it is the lightest of the trio and it is the strongest out of all... that is why it's THE sh*t 8)

...then again i am a little' biased coz i've been known to have a fetish for carbonfibre so mehhhh... :P
