Considering the alternatives out there, I don't think its that bad.. Tape is a minimal investment for installation..

That was with the first batch of rear window spoilers that we had and there was only one left. Since getting the second batch, prices had increased on me which is why I can't offer that low of a price anymore. When I had the first batch, not that many people wanted to step up and purchase which is why I had to resort to ebay.

This price is going to be where its at for the forseeable future.. I don't want to go into why again, its like beating a dead horse. We're not producing hundreds of these (and with a response like I'm seeing here, its understandable) therefore, it costs more to produce.

And just for arguments sake thats why there are not alot of 6th gens with that spoiler(sarona) but now with the paradox one its just a piece of fiberglass then you have to get it prepped and painted then stick it on your talking almost a $300 mod thats why i ask if it would come down in price i realize that he has a business to run but in my mind you would sell more for cheaper then less for amore expensive
ol' saying goes that bang em over time not all at once(ie repeat business)

If the market for these items was large enough to warrant producing hundreds of pieces at a time, I could get them for cheaper and in turn offer them for cheaper. Because I have relatively small production runs of these, the costs per piece are higher. Its not just a piece of fiberglass you are paying for, it is the molding costs, the production costs, the shipping costs. You can't compare to parts that are cheaper for other cars because their markets warrant making hundreds if not thousands of pieces at a time. The cost per piece is significantly lower in that case. The Maxima market, the 6th gen market specifically is finicky at best. I don't tack on all the extra fees that other companies do, I do not have as much overhead and I try to get the prices as low as I can. It may or may not cost you $300 in the end but that's with the finished product as opposed to the competition where it starts at $300 and needs to have it painted and installed. If you want to save a few bucks, I recommend purchasing the CF one and not have to worry about paint.
