Did I miss something re: Aero kit?

I am probably one of the few that really likes the look of the factory aero kit. From what I gather, it consists of front splitters and a rear wing. The kit on sale sells for about $4k. The front splitters are about $600. Meaning that rear wing is essentially $3,400? Am I missing something here? In the small chance that I am not, does anyone have a knock-off kit version of the $3,400 spoiler? I have read probably 30 threads with aftermarket spoilers but I just like that aero kit one the best. That being said, I don't think it is $2k + better than the aftermarket ones.

Re: Did I miss something re: Aero kit?

I quote: "Rear Wing
rear Wing is is comprised of 2 parts.
1st is the Base in GRP which requires the trunk to be drilled.
2nd is the Wing element which is available in a choice of GRP or Carbon Fibre"

It does look nice but please... drilling the trunk?!

The Photo on the Motordrive Site Showing the Front Splitters are on an Already Lowered Cayman GT (30mm lower than standard)

The Spring Kit is Eibach - The Same Specifications as H&R ....

So the Splitters Will Work with H&R Springs
