Default mugen style ss wing

Hi everyone, Ive always liked the mugen style ss wing, and i came across a used one on craigslist. Im curious as to whether or not there should be a seibon stamp or logo somewhere on the wing. Otherwise are there other companies that have made this wing? any experience with quality/ fitment of seibon or non seibon replicas? In my experience seibon parts are usually better quality than other companies for replicas, as far as fitment. (though i guess fitment cant be too bad for wings as opposed to fenders etc)

heres the link http://losangeles.craigslist.org/sgv...451210969.html

btw please dont bash on "non authentic" jdm parts

It does look similar to the Seibon, but Seibon attaches a label to their stuff so not sure what thats from....

Pretty sure its seibon. 180 is pretty darn cheap.

That is a seibon spoiler, you can tell by the mounts. There is no Seibon label on the spoiler, there isn't one on my seibon either. I got the risers for mine, so i can leave it low or raise it up.

That particular wing has been on sale for months. Not sure why it hasn't sold.
A friend of mine was going to buy it but for some reason he didn't.

Just give it a good inspection before purchasing. Especially the mounts and the threads on them and under the wing.

Good luck.

That one looks like it in rough shape. You may be better off buying a new one unless you plan on painting this one. Also the crack is troublesome.
