Actually a guy near Brantford is the first that I know of. He recently bought the LS1Tech Pinks camaro. I was on the fencepost ever since this came out and finally I took the plunge and am glad I did. The thing fits better than stock and looks great. The only negative was that it cost $300 bucks to have it shipped here from VFN. Not such a big deal for me though. 2 years ago I quit smoking after almost 20 years. I figured I spent about 50 bucks a week on smokes so each week I transfered 50 bucks to a seperate account. In just over 12 months I bought: VFN hood/shipping/paint, LT1 SS Spoiler/shipping/paint, TT II rims and tires/shipping and various stereo items like a new deck and some focal speakers. I will NEVER smoke another cigarette again.

That's a wicked story. Good for you man. Did you get it shipped to your house. I've been debating how to do this myself with a WS6 hood. Not sure weather to have it sent to my place, or have it sent to the UPS store in upper NY state. Only problem is, I can't check it once it arrives...

I had my rims sent to Buffalo and picked them up. Saved a bunch of cash on that. Problem is the hood is so damn big the box wouldn't have enen fit in my truck. I have a short box F-150 and the box wouldnt have sat down flat cause it was so big. I'd have been worried about wrecking it on the way home.

I just noticed your in Ottawa. You'd spend 300 bucks in gas one way just to get to NY state!

Nope, I do it all the time. It's 45 minutes to the border. I go to Ogdensburg It's saved me hundreds of dollars.

Actually, I worked it out once - it's cheaper to drive down & back to buy gas, than it is to fill up here.

Clean as hell man! I think I need one now. What's the difference on a LT1 spoiler? It's hard to tell from the pics you posted.
