shark wing on rd2
how hard is it to get a shark wing without the center post mounted on an rd2 and would fiberglass or urethane type be best to do it

where did you find one without the middle pillar?
Also, beware...these spoilers are easy to steal without that middle pillar there to secure it.
Are you talking about the wings west one, all the others have three pillars

Nice find!!! KNOX's gonna have some competition...
Find out if that one you're buying comes with the shocks that hold up the hatch (you'll need to replace them with different size) and all mounting equipment + middle brake light. That's what's nice about KNOX, he includes everything and ships fast. Just make sure you have that stuff included or else you'll be hittin up KNOX for those parts once you get it.

There's no way that lift supports are included, considering they list for $95 each and there are no aftermarket ones available that I have been able to find.

i bought one from erebuni. got it for 95 shipped.. hehe cuz im good. anyway, looked great. didnt have center post. has same LED as stock spoiler. i fiberglassed the bottoms to make it close to fit on the RD2 and its really not that hard. i sold it before i had a chance to clean it up, and install it because i got a free type-r spoiler.
tibby01 i believe owns it now. i sold it to dweet and then i think he sold it, so try asking them how its going. it looked like the spoiler woulda looked great but i could not pass up a type-r for free, and i didnt have to drill any holes or patch mine up.
