Depending on where in Canada you are located, there may be shops you can order the wings thru... I know I'll be starting to look around, since the wing on my GTA is shot

By the time you land the wing it will be close to 750-800 dollars canadian after brokerage,freight and GST. Look for a used 4th gen wing and convert if you like the idea. Mine cost roughly 250 to buy the wing and modify it and the rear deck lid and paint as well. Its not the same look but it siuts the body lines pretty good tho IMO.

Well after LOTS of searching around, I found a company in Bolton, Ontario that has a fiberglass one. I am picking it up this morning. It's 500 Ca. so it's pretty reasonable.

Paradise Alley sold me my fiberglass spoiler for $400 Cdn taxes in.

Probably the best deal I have ever got from them.

I've been meaning to get up to Paradise Alley to check the place out, but never got a chance to this summer... maybe this fall when I get laid off my job. $400 is a pretty good price, especially when you figure the mail order ones are around $350 US, plus shipping.

The website is http://www.paradisealleyauto.com/

Yeah,
They sell them for more money to the US then we can get them for. They either get $450 or $500 US for them. Make sure you call first so that they have them in stock
