it looks nice, but not great. IMO i say take another 2" off the top and form it to flow into the fenders a bit more smothly. not bad tho. chop my changes anyone?

It does look nicer than I thought it would, but pole is exactly right- 2" shorter and better "fender flow" and I'd run down the street & around the corner to buy one. Yeah, they really are that close to me.

OK, ill be the first to admit I was *partially* wrong. looks better than I thought, however, its still too big IMHO. anyway, in the above pic it doesnt look like the curve on the right matches the one on the left. the right side looks like it has more or a longer curve to it. maybe its just the picture. i guess it could be that the trunk isnt mounted straight.
i personally would have liked a trunk with no spoiler or the pre98 lip one. . . . .
not cracking on CF1. im glad they want to make stuff for us. i hope this is well received for them b/c i would hate to lose another manufacturer for us. looks like they are on to something, but not quite there.

Looks better than I expected, maybe I just want one too bad
Still would show off the CF alot more without the rear reflector though
Thanks for all your effort Dion.

I'll jump in on the "not-as-bad-as-I-thought" band wagon, I mean it definately looks better than the original mock-up, but still isn't styled in a way that would convince me to spend the money.

it is not so bad.. I take one for $500 shipped (final offer). Gives the "rear" a more aggressive look. Thats all anyones going to be seeing of my car anyways so its all gravy...

ABSOLUTLY AMAZING!!! Guys, listen, you are all wanting two inches shorter.. 2" shorter; go by a pre98 trunklid with a lip spoiler.  Dion, that looks great, MUCH better than the original pics. Take care of the fitment, and you've got yourself a fine product.
