  • Spoiler question

    So used ones are going for around $200....

    Why not go with festivamotorsports version?

    Its $125 and new.


    any problems are a reason why one is better than the other?

    They are the same version but I don't believe they have them available at FMS anymore

          Yeah, but good luck! If you can get one for $175-180 on here you should go for it. I think someone has one for $175 on here now
          Edit: Here ya go

          $175+shipping

            $175-$200 seems to be the going rate for spoilers anymore these days

            1988 323 GT - B6T Powered
            2008 Ford Escape - Rollover Survivor

            1990 Festiva - First Ever Completed KLZE swap (SOLD)

            If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

              i like them but i dont like them that much, Im still in that mindset of keeping this on low budget upgrades. And i probably need to fix the huge dents all around it first. Mostly curious about why they go for that much used when they were cheaper new.

                Now that you can't buy them new anymore, so they're harder to get meaning price goes up

                  supply & demand. I got one on ebay for like $75 yrs ago. The supply has been depleted & the demand has went up, thanks to this site.

                      ^ I'm sure they were asking that, but not so sure they were actually selling How can a plastic/FG spoiler be worth more than the car?

                        There was a spoiler that actually did sell on ebay for around $500, for real

                          True. Multiple spoilers sold on ebay around that time for $250-500. I think a few guys here even cashed in on some of their extra spoilers. It's all just supply and demand

                            I would make one before I paid $500!
