Looks good buddy. I really want that spoiler. I have the camera spoiler on this car and wish they made a version of the GT500 with a camera mount.

Thanks orph! Yeah this spoiler has been on my want list since new. Just never pulled the trigger yet due to order and priority of mods. I think it's the sexiest spoiler out there. Yeah if you have a camera tho, I think you have to keep that spoiler.

Hows your car btw? Hope all is well.

I agree, this is the best looking spoiler for the car. When I was shopping for my 2011 GT, I negotiated a lot of extras into the deal, but I could not get the sales guy to give me this wing for free, so I had to go with 3dCarbon from CJPP. The OP's Kona Blue looks amazing with this, love the look of his car.

The drop is 1.5" all around. IMO, it's the perfect drop.

For everyone that has the Carbon3D, how is the paint holding up and any regrets not getting the OEM ? Im really close to buying one now from MRT painted.

I think mine is holding up perfect. Looks as good as the day I installed it. Everyone asks me about it, too (ego!).
Ps: I answered you on the other thread, also.

Oh, to keep the black gurney-stip looking good, I use shine stuff (like Armor All) after I wash it. Remember to add that step...like when you do the tires.

I am loving my prepainted 3Dcarbon. The paint is perfect. The clearcoat they use is a little softer than factory paint, so it is more prone to swirling. But buying OEM will come to you primered, so you'd still have to get it painted, so quality will be same, not as good as factory.

OP, I noticed you are getting it from MRT. After I shopped, CJ Pony was much cheaper. MRT "should" also get it from 3DC, but I think they charge more for shipping, etc. CJ Pony is free shipping.

Also make sure you don't get it from American Muscle... they don't sell the 3DC prepainted. You will get a copy of it, with NO black gurney flap.

Yes, had I thought about the fishing line, I would have not snapped my OEM piece in two. Oh well..... I'll never go back to it anyways. But I was just going to sell it.

Update after about 2.5 mos of ownership. Spoiler is holding up great...prepainted piece is all solid and good. This was the first prepainted piece I have ever purchased and was worried about the quality, etc... But man, I am loving this spoiler to this day. Maybe even more so now. Lol.

Folks who see it car shows all comment on it. Worries me that I will get copied over and over lol.... ESP in my small hometown.

Anyways, I highly recommend getting it. Best spoiler

Don't worry about being copied. That wing is everywhere. It's a popular choice.
