    Which one?

    The kind you marry or the kind that you take to the car show?



    Oh, yeah, sometimes the same thing.

    $200 for a Grabber spoiler?? Wow, times sure have changed. I remember paying $50 for mine and that included the trunk lid that it was attached to. Our spoilers aren't even really "spoilers"--but more like a fiberglass trim piece that goes along the back of the trunk lid. Man that's expensive!...
    :rolleyes:

    Bob....

    ...no harm done.
    Have you mounted your spoiler yet?
    Some of these guys may be able to help you in
    getting the holes drilled in the trunk lid if you don't
    have an original Grabber trunk lid. I have never done
    it. I sold my Grabber end caps to someone and
    decided to leave my Comet as is. Craig, did I sell
    them to you? They were Grabber blue with the
    factory flat black paint.

    I know its sad but I just paid $250 for the spoiler with the trunk lid. On the bright side are cars are becoming popular and the value is climbing rapidly. I havnt owned my Comet very long and I have had 2 real offers that were twice what I paid.

    Well I remember one time me and my old buddy Abe Lincoln were returning a book to the library, walking in a blinding snow storm for 26 miles. We run across one of them maverick spoiler doohickeys along side the road. We broke it long ways and stabbed a wild boar, cooked it with a fire created from the end caps, ate it right there too. In 1826 prices that spoiler was only worth about an indianhead penny.
    Seriously, check out the buy it now on this gas cap on scambay!

    I bought one of those deluxe gas caps at Carlisle only a few years ago for $45. That one on ebay is way over-priced.
