That is called the Fab hood wing. They sell copies of it on ebay, like $250 or so as I recall.

Don't waste your time on the copies. I've heard from very respectable people that they fit like crap. This is one knock off you want to def. stay away from. If you want to pay the extra money to get it to fit right then go right ahead. I just got my Authentic Fabulous Hood Spoiler from MyAutoFashion yesterday. I paid $435 shipped. Got to pay to play.

Enjoy!

Man I wish I could read Japanese...

So does that mean there may soon be a well-made alternative to the Fab origional, Orataro?

Most likely not. Thought of making my own design but currently too many other projects keeping me busy. If I were to make one, it would be vaccuum formed rather then fiberglass. I just hate working with fiberglass.

There is another hood wing spoiler I found similar to the Fabulous one. If I can find the link again, I'll post it.

each nozzle has 3 streams that come from it.
i only had an issue with one stream hitting the wing.

if i fill the washer bottle up all the way, i don't have any problems.

i didn't want one soo tall or the big wings that wrap around the sides.

i am glad i got a deal on this one. i am happy that it hides the wipers if you look dead on. (the other on would not have done that)

but now with soo many peeps getting this one, i might change to something more rare

Whats it normally run to get it painted to match the body? This mod is definitely on my list of things to accomplish.

range of 100-200 for paint.

if it needs fitting it will run more.

please, please, please test fit your parts first to make sure it fits.

nothing worse than a poor fitting kit.
