Hi mate, yes this is the very rare Genuine Version R Spoiler and it is in superb condition as it was just taken out from a 2000 FTO in Japan.

The Buy it now price is Â£260(AUD$650), I could ship it by international EMS this week (ususally take 3-4 days to arrive) or local pickup in Hong Kong.

FTO did finish at 2000. But for $650 + shipping for a 2nd spoiler is very steep

I can have the same brand new aftermarket one ship from HK to Aus for around $350-$400 & no one could tell the different after the paint job either.

I think you are refering to the copy made by Kingsmart in Hong Kong for HKD1,500.

http://www.kingsmart.com.hk/products/pr ... =K-282-SNL

However, those copies were molded in 1 piece and crack easily.

The Genuine spoiler was made out off ABS plastic which much more stronger and it was put together by different pieces. So you could install without the middle fin or carbon fiber coated the middle piece.

It was more expensive then a copy, but the genuine is very rare and hard to find. Honestly, this is about the same to what I have paid for to get it from Japan.

If you have a Red FTO, then you could save I guess $200 for paint job as this is quite new and do not require respary.

Well few members had bought from Kingsmart before, so i know they comes in 3 pieces & none of them had any problem or issue with shipment or cracks.

I've been getting parts from Japan every now & then, i come across these geniune spoiler in different sites quiet offen & from my calculation after shipping, storage & fees (To Australia) all the one i've seen still cost less then $650.

Now i'm from HK myself, the shipping fees are less from Jap to HK then to Aus. $650 is way too much to pay for, if you did pay around that much for it.

Hi mate, just called Kingsmart to confirm. The Version R spoiler they sell was a 1 piece fiberglass replica, which it can not took apart (the middle fin).

Making the exact 4 pieces replica would not be half the price of the genuine as it require much more effort and stronger material.

If anyone did searching for genuine before, they would know this is rare and do not come cheap (special this one is as good as new). Just like the genuine VeilSide spoiler which was much more expensive then the replica.

As for the postage, 6Kg of spoiler sending via EMS from Japan to Hong Kong is about the same as sending it from Hong Kong to Australia. Please check online.

Hope this clarify.
