Default Authentic C-West EG rear spoiler??

I just received this in the mail from a reputable C-West dealer in a legit box, but it doesn't look legit at all to me >.<

Can anyone confirm if this is legit or not?





I am also contacting C-West about this >.<

I think I may have been the victim of a swap out during shipping

Looks fake, ship it to me asap.

For real though it looks fine to me, what makes you think it's fake?

The first thing that bugged me is that all the rest of my C-West parts have the C-West logo on the underside, along with the 4 letter code for what material they made it from. (PFRP, ect.).

More than anything, it just doesn't seem to match the picture.



Hell, maybe I was just expecting something a little more substantial or impressive like the rest of the kit

After visiting the JDM version of C-West's site i found out that this is for sure the real deal!!

The JDM site has about 100x's the info that the C-WEST USA site has and it's alot more up to date!!.... now I just have to learn Japanese....

Did he just bolt it on ?? or did he fill in the low spots and hide the screws?"?

I wish I could read the Instructions in Japanese lol

yes sir heres mine...





Your **** is real, and this spoiler looks dope as fu*k, I got mine from bulletproofautomotive about 3 months ago. Hopefully everyone dosent start buying this duckbill I thought I was one of the only with it. I used 5/32" aluminum rivets to fasten it to the stock wing, good luck man and good choice!
