At one point SLP offered the wing for-sale by itself to whoever wanted it.

SLP offered the hood too. I used to get the SLP catalog. Even the firehawk decals are available aftermarket.

i dont think it would ruin the cost of a true IROC spoiler. i havent really checked how much mark is selling his for ( maybe 800 shipped? after the sale) but if its that way, someone would probably pay a bit extra just to get a legit real one and i have people in line to buy mine when i sell my car just because they want an OEM one and not a reproduction.

I plan on ordering quite a bit from mark in my future. Seeing i have a ws6 and two lt1 ss camaros, this spoiler, the new mecham spoiler, and those lt1 camaro bumpers are all great looking products that have never been offered before. Great job mark and others!

I like it, but I have to think about if i like it enough to justify the price. just to be clear, the cost for the fiberglass piece is $700 + $200 for shipping, $900 total? or is it $700 total if you order now?

not really, they're still just as exclusive. not sure of exact number's he producing or anything, but I can bet you that you'll probably never see anyone with one of these driving around. considering how few f-body enthusiasts there are compared to owners as a whole, and then take the few who are into appearance mods enough to allow themselves to spend hundreds of dollars on parts like this (outside of rims which everyone gets), and then spread those few across the country... things like this aren't something you'll see too many people with. hell, how often do you even see firehawks?

even something like the CME valence which is probably one of their biggest sellers, is still something you rarely ever see in person. In general, these mods will remain fairly rare to see on cars while out and about. Eventually I'll probably see Marks car or some of the guys from the forums, but other than that there's a good chance I won't ever see another f-body with a targa top or splitter other than my own, these things will always be fairly exclusive.

Crimson you're 100% correct. CME is our best seller, SLP sold it before and yet I could count on two hands the CME's I've seen (across the country) INCLUDING those I know personally...

Fact is, these cars are becoming more and more rare to begin with. Now add in some specific, rare modifications and you're lucky to see another person at all with the same mods, unless you go on the Hot Rod Power.

Sorry for not updating, I'm driving a couple hours south on Tuesday to work out a private label with a different company that makes it 100% in the US and has no minimum orders, so it is still a go and should be at your doors a lot quicker than the other company...
