Much respect to you and your wife Eric. Whatever you make, it's not enough. All the best.

Im not sure how to say what Im thinking but so far I have not stated my thoughts correctly. I have nothing against anyone here who buys replicas, My problem is with those that buy replicas and try to pass them as the real deal. To each there own, I was not attacking anyone, just stating my thoughts....So sorry if i affended anyone it was not my intensions....

thanks

We're cool Dinan. I hear you and I agree with you. Thus the reason I did not put the badges on the spoilers. I felt that was a bit over the top.

Just spent ?40K on a car, wasnt going to risk spoiling the look by using replicas.? There is an old saying..dont spoil the ship for 10 penerth of tar..?
So I took the plunge and ordered the original ACS, (you also get a choice of label colours included..(bonus)?

Ordered the AC Schnitzer boot and rear window spoilers. They are in after being painted at my local dealer, the car has just come off the transporter and is in London. New ETA is 8th Sept.....getting close almost a month ahead local dealer in Newcastle will fit when I get my hands on it.

I bought the trunk spoiler, fit like a glove, paint was good as well. matched perfectly with my car. I have a wife, she does not let me spend 1000 dollars on a spoiler. thus i get to spend 100 and get the same "look"

Like i said in my other thread, The spoiler seem to be a DIRECT mold of the original ACS. has the ACS serial numbers and the indentation for the decal badge. GTII are you upset because you are selling the same "replicas" for twice the price?
