TRADE: "Spoilered" Trunk springs for non-Spoilered!

Hey...I had a stock spoiler, and traded trunks for one with no spoiler.

Now I'm stuck with a friggin catapult everytime I open my trunk:



If there is anyone in the opposite situation (with a spoilered trunk that doesn't open at all) I would love to trade with you. It's an easy swap.

Let me know.

Ruel...PM'd you.

It's pretty easy, if you look under the trunk lid, you'll see two long black bars that mount to the trunk. Just some bigass screwdrivers and some prying and you can get them out.

why didn't you do it when you traded bootlids with bert?

because the springs are painted the same color as the car...

yeah, live in san bruno. Come to the SB^2 or the Eggettes meet and we can do the swap right then and there

San Bruno Starbucks meet is tonight, Eggettes meet is Wednesday, or just let me know when you are free and we can meet someplace to swap.

PM me when you can.

P.S. How's the new job, now that you finally got out of Stanford?
