OEM rear spoiler?

Hey everyone, I'm wondering where I can get an OEM large rear spoiler for the Evo X other than from the dealership? I'm from Canada, and I got the GSR model. But the GSR models here doesn't have the SSS package, so it's all base which really bites. So all the GSRs here just have the regular lancer headlights and spoiler. It's pretty retarded, because you think that paying about 45K for a car (yeah here in Canada a GSR is about 45K after everything) you think it'd come with HIDs and the large rear spoiler! So I was wondering if any of you guys know of any places other than the dealership that would have an OEM large rear spoiler. I guess while I'm at it, does anyone know where can I get the OEM HID's as well. Thanks!

Sweet, thanks for the site!

Damn, I looked on that site, and it'll cost 2200.00 CDN for the rear spoiler, and 2400.00 CDN for the HIDs...

*sigh* Canada always gets the shaft on cars.

Shaft on cars?Che... you don't know the half of it double that price and thats what I have to pay in Barbados dollars, But yeah post pics of before, during and after the installation if you could. Those prices seem a bi exaggerated to me though might be wrong but still look a little more and see if you can get it cheaper or trade with someone who wants the small wing.

find someone on the forums who is selling the wing, that would be the cheapest route

I'm sure there are plenty of people who went/are going wingless. Like JoeyM3 said, search the private for sale section and one will show up eventually.

Yeah I'm looking for one too. It really sucks that we don't get the SSS option. Mine's a GG.
I'm thinking of going the seibon route and painting it.

Well 45K is what you pay for the base GSR model which includes all the taxes and stuff. I got this option called "Venture Shield" which is the clear protective film around the front bumper, side mirrors and hood, plus some rust protection underneath the car, and scotch guard on my interior, so I ended up paying around 47K, and it was CDN, but when I bought it last July, I think the Canadian dollar was close to the US dollar, so it might as well been 47K USD, haha.

And yeah I guess I shouldn't ***** about the car prices here, considering it's way worse than in some other places.

I never really looked into other options, I was pretty keen on getting the OEM big spoiler cuz I really liked the look of it. And since it's OEM I know it'll have no problem at all fitting on. I've had a bad experience in the past with bumpers, and lip kits that didn't fit that well. But if I really had to shell out 2200 for a new OEM wing, then screw it, I'll look for used, or I'll just keep the small wing haha! But I'll take a look at the seibon wing and see how I like it.

Oh yeah? That would be pretty awesome actually! Thanks for the info, I'll look into this.

And thanks everyone for the tips and info!
