Woohoo!!! I was due long time ago to have one of these!

I just won a bid on eBay for a sportwing from AVO. It should be here next week.

Thats why i have the HID's on hold. Will get them either this weekend or next week :thumb:

AVO has been ebaying the store products for a long time, you just never looked. Gives people a chance to get it even cheaper then the AVO price (which from what I saw they were about $10 or so cheaper then AVO price)

Gonna be a nice addition to yours now, and its really gonna look great when you have the cladding painted.

i just sold mine on ebay. Had it since june 06 and it was still in the closet waiting for paint. I figured I didn't need it that much.

Cladding should be painted by SD Nationals and diamond plated too. Hopefully with enuff funds and time i'll slap a roll pan.

Dammit. I never dropped off the tail light to the body shop!

Anywho.... hey Strobin', i never got a shipping confirmation from the pope. Is it possible the sportwing is still getting painted? Its been days already.

i wish it came with more double sided tape. The 2 screws it came with,to me is not enuff.

Lucky i have a roll of double sided tape and im redoing it on saturday. Other than that im very satisfied with product. Quick delivery too.

Strobin · « **Reply #17 on:** January 25, 2007, 02:56:33 PM »

Looks good . . . how much more tape do you need, mines stay on and I'm always driving 85+

I have a gap in both corners and i believe is the foam tape across it is too thick. Maybe i didnt tighten the screws deep enuff?

I cranked the screws a bit more but i can still see the gap on it. Im removing the foam tape and placing a double sided tape instead hoping it'll work.

Strobin · « **Reply #33 on:** January 26, 2007, 05:01:05 PM »

I got a bit of a gap on the passenger side.

Im not 100% satisfied. Im tackling this tomorrow :thumb: It should work.
