    its ok i got one from a dealer already and its on my car.paid $340 but i didnt care.i was too frusrated to car about price.i just couldnt beleive how they could mess up the color code when i give them the info.it was the wrong color like a pontiac purple color,but the paint job was awesome,i kinda wished our cars came in that color cuz in the light it turned orange,it was tight.

    Same thing happened to me. Bought the spoiler for ~150 and came out to be darker than the car. Called their company up which was found on his main ebay page and they gave me a discount to bring it down to the price of an unpainted spoiler. Best thing to do know is get it painted (MAACO charges about 125 and gets the paint code directly from mitsu) and install it yourself! Final overall cost is about 210 whereas Mitsubishi spoilers, painted and installed, cost about 540 with tax. Installation is easy and won't void the warranty.

    yea it was like a purple,i mean how the hell can someone mess up the paint when they have a book with the code and a picture of the color it should be.i gave them the paint code and everything.im already ahead of you,i went to my local custom shop tehy said around 120 as well,but since i drilled the holes forn the wing,it was a duplicate.it was about 1/2 inc too short,i was pissed more frustrated than mad,it was like 12 degrees outside when i was prefitting the spoiler and snowing and wind blustering,then come to find out it wasnt gonna fit,it was only 125$ for the wing so i didnt take the time to do all that.i jst went on ahead and spent the money to get one form the dealer for $340.i had already drilled the oem holes for the spoiler and once i got the wing,i put it on in less than 5 minutes and it was a PERFECT MATCH.money well spent there.oh well im over it my whip looks awesome now.
