Wing types for the Evo X

Sorry for the noobish question but which Evo X's got the high wing? Which ones got the lip spoiler? and lastly, which ones got the low wing?

Are all high wings the same? Conversely, are all lip spoilers and low wings the same?

in general Evos with the sight/sound package have the high wing. MRs and SEs come with the lip spoiler, but can have the high wing installed and ive only seen the low wing on 08 models

As far as I know only the gsr's with sss come with the high spoiler and non sss gsr's have the low wing. MR's have the lip spoiler.

There may be exceptions to this, but this is what I've seen so far

So is it fair to summarize:

Low Wing
2008-2010 GSR without SSS

High Wing
2008-2010 MR
2008-2010 GSR with SSS
2011-2013 GSR

Lip Spoiler
2010 SE
2010 MR-T
2011-2013 MR

If so, are all high wings / low wings / lip spoiler made the same? (i.e. is the high wing from the 2010 GSR SSS or the 2011 GSR the same as the high wing from the 2010 MR?)

Can the high wing bolt onto a low wing / lip spoiler trunk or are separate trunk lids required?

I have the 2012 GSR with the high wing - octane blue in color. Anyone wanting to trade for the MR trunk or low wing deck? My trunk is in mint condition, and I'd expect yours to be as well for the trade. Must be local to Texas ( within the 4 major metros).

I am not challenging your range for the Low/High wing, I have the low wing on my 2010 GSR w/ out SS, but I also have the lip spoiler, could it be part of my aero kit? I have the stock aero kit, wider side skirts etc.

You have more angles of your car? Interested to see how a wing and a lip spoiler look?

2011+ GSR comes with the high wing, SS or not (now called Sight and Sound since spoiler isn't part of it )
