    Looking around one night on evilbay, keyed in "Grand Prix spoiler", came across an ad that was a spoiler off a white SE, looked at the pics, it had the hood vents and what appeared to be roof rails still intact.

    Was able to find the number for the seller (salvage yard). Called them up and asked about the rails, didn't know if they were still on the car or not. Got a call later, said they were available...

    So here's what $30 + $15 shipping can get'cha... Condition wise, I can't complain, they cleaned up pretty nice with a little elbow grease and a wax..

    Lucky find guy.

    Every time I call on stuff I get this exact response: " Oh that was sold Yesterday."

    Always a day late.

    If I called on the rails the guy would have said oh we just put that car in the shredder...yesterday.

    Anyways congrats.
