Bought them from BMA, spoiler was $155.00 and the valance was $242.10, plus shipping.

I got tired of futzing around trying to find decent used pieces - these are brand spanking new, so all they really need is a coat of paint.

I finally gave up trying to straighten mine and got a new one also. I found a lot of Bondo under the paint which was never an issue as the lip was gone when I bought the car. No way would the is lip fit. Watch those parking curbs and driveways!

Does BMA offer free shipping on expensive orders or anything like that?  I think I'm going to have to do the same thing with the front valance.  I haven't been able to source a good used one locally.

Nope, unfortunately not - it's oversize, cost like $45 to ship.

Of course, that was basically three large boxes, too - valance, spoiler, and the box of other junk.
