Forgot a few others. C-West is the big one, Varis, Extremor others in sure. Here's the Cwest trunk which is much cheaper than Monster.

I want that CF C-West front bumper with the integrated splitter, the trunk and a diffuser (hopefully with carbon undertray). Any vendors?

Mr Bubbler where are you getting your prices from ? To clear the weight issues up the stock trunk weighs 21.16 lbs the monster carbon lid weighs 8.8 lbs.

Is the 21.6 lbs the Evo aluminum trunk or the Lancer trunk (steel I presume)?

go with vis. im sure they have the pull tabs and whatnot for it, the monster trunk does not have any latches or keyholes, so you have to use pins to hold the thing down
