If you have it almost finished, post up some pictures and you will get a much better gauge of interest.

O didnt know they called it like that, i always referred to it as high rise spoiler. Well I'm anxious at seeing your project, when are you going to post pics of the new wing? Or do you just want to surprise us with the finish product!

The front of the wing is wider because the convertible is wider it will made by a major running board company so you will have the quality and fit.
