How do you know that the pedestal spoiler isn't functional? If it wasn't functional why do you think it was put on the LS and required with the front splitter?

I am considering adding the LS pedestal spoiler but not planning to add the LS front splitter since I'll not be able to get it on and off the trailer. Will this be beneficial from an aero standpoint over the regular Boss spoiler on a high speed track like BIR or Road America?

And to this I'm planning on installing the GT500 spoiler. My bet is it's downforce is somewhere between the Boss and LS spoilers.

Well I've changed my mind and now I'm going to install the OEM LS wing. The question is will I be the first one to install a white wing on a Kona Blue Boss or will someone do it before me?

You should paint it white so I can see how it looks.

Does anyone know the paint code for performance white so I can give it to the person who will paint my wing?

One of the forum members here painted his flat black, can't remember who but it was that good-looking intelligent guy, not sure how this info will help you with a kona blue but just figured I would pass it along anyway

looking at a black LS wing on Race Red/Black car. I agree the regular boss spoiler is a bit understated for the car.

Yes, the code is all any body shop needs to match it. Any good shop will test spray to make sure it matches first. You need to make sure it is performance white on the roof, that I have no idea about. My guess would be that is the color they used but my guess means nothing. Who told you it was?

Nice is that primer or white? You didn't order the CF winglets? Did you order the 2010+ mounting brackets from Mulitmatic Racing?
