Weighs around 4-5# for full reinforced lid, but I’m sure he’s also do just a top skin for race car use that would be probably 2-3#
Strong enough to support a trunk mount wing?

If I lived in CA, I would have taken him to small claims court just for the principal of it, but it's simply not worth the plane ticket and hassle at this point. Dude is a total ***** and coward, but whatever.
I'm sorry to hear it and thanks for the heads up man!

From the dead! You’ll never believe this, but I randomly sent him another new paypal request maybe a handful of months ago to refund me, and I **** you not, he actually paid it. I’ve never seen or heard of someone totally shafting someone on a purchase like that, and then more than a year later actually refunding their money without being legally forced to do so. Let the buyer beware, but I have to say my beef with him is totally squashed.
