thanx fo the replies guys, myron...I got a hold of the guy he has WRX trunks for $450...sounds pretty good to me, thinkin bout having him make a hood for my Scirocco, maybe a hatch too? It'll cost more like 750 for the hood and 1000 for the hatch for a one-off batch. Hes gotta make a mold first...

$1000 for a hood and $750 for a hatch? I guess I'm better off getting it shipped in then.
