I looks nice but why only the top trunk? No one would noticed the trunk is CF from the top view! The spoiler? ehhh not my type. Too upward. I would prefer a little more down tilted like 45 degrees. Post photos of this once its all done dion. Perhaps at that time itll change my mind.

Dan, the whole trunk lid is going to be CF, not just the top.. And again, if the spoiler was at about a 45 degree angle, it'd sell like mad(or well, mad for CEG!!).

And for the record, I have a 1969 Camaro SS/RS 350.
Dion,
I too had a '68 Firebird with the same spoiler as the Camaro probably before you were born (by the way nice car  ). It is very close to the style of the Camaro rear spoiler in general. The only resemblance to the BMW M3 is looking at it from straight behind the car. The side view is not even close, CF1 spoiler is almost straight up like the '67-'69 Camaro where as the M3 spoiler is thinner and is much more angled back and with very little height above the actual trunk deck. Had CF1 duplicated this they may have had something but as it appears in the pic's they did not.
Dude, if the finished spoiler comes out looking anything like that bimmer... I'll take one and a pack of wet naps

They should also fill in the spot to remove the entire rear reflector. I don't want it, and transferring over my painted silver one onto a CF trunk will look totally gay!

This thing is going to be sick(in a good way). Everyone's got their own tastes, but it does look like a lot of thought went into the design and angle.

Plain and Simple I think it would look good. I'd never pay $500 to replace my OEM trunklid for something that looks exactly the same anyways.
