JB991 is infamous around these parts
SpeedART parts

Anyone know someone who sells/deals with SpeedART parts? Forum vendors?

I'm really wanting the rear spoiler and diffuser.

side skirt and front spoiler just don't belong to the car, they look like some sort of civic body kit.

GMP Performance. They are forum vendors and have SpeedART parts.
My shop has the rear spoiler and springs on order. Hope to get delivery before next week...

Do you know if the spoiler will work with this spasm wing as it raises up a bit more? Also any info on pricing? Please pm if can. Thanks

Do not know about SPASM and did not ask the question since I do not have it, but looking at the geometry of the spoiler and knowing that it will still raise, I do not think there should be an issue with SPASM either.
Pricing listed on GMP performance website. Not too crazy (unlike the engine tune which costs a lot of $$$ for very few HP).

I think a bit less than an inch according to what I read. I do not like cars that are slammed, rubbing is out of the question and I always stick to the 'one finger minimum' rule (between the tire and the fender). I'll post pics as soon as the job is done!

Great thanks. Please post your impressions of the wing once you have it installed!

SM_ATL -- Any updates on these parts? Using you as my guinea pig if you don't mind.

Still no news
My shop is buying from Vivid who in turn gets it from the importer who has the exclusivity for the US. Last week, the parts were still in Germany. The spoiler would be ready but there were issues with the springs. It seems to be extremely difficult to get updates from the importer or SpeedART. I do not know which one of the two (or both?) are causing the issue.

I find this frustrating as springs are made by H&R and already being delivered in the US while SpeedART parts -that are way more expensive- are still nowhere to be seen. It also turns out that the first H&R shipments are already sold out.

I hope the parts will work well on the car because the service has been terrible so far. If I do not get a firm and solid answer with tracking information before the end of the week I'll probably cancel the order and move on with an OEM spoiler and SPASM springs (or H&R).

I'll keep you posted...

Not sure if you've seen the Techart kit but I think it trumps the Speedart package....I actually LOVE it......I emailed them and got some pricing and info....everything is available "except" the rear spoiler...available July.

** anyone know how to post pics NOT as an attachment?

Not bad indeed , but now that a Porsche aerokit cup option exists (I asked my shop if it would be available as spare parts already), I would be tempted to go OEM. Anyhow, I am just looking at lowering the car + rear spoiler for now.
