Blau stopped getting them.  They actually sold my spoiler to me (After a 4 
month wait) at "their cost", which I know it wasn't, but still a nice 
discount for the wait. There are two reasons I won't copy my OEM unit.  1) 
Everyone I've talked to speaks of the molding process removing paint.  Having 
payed a considerable amount to get flexible paint matched to it, I'm not 
about to rip it off when I have an unpainted copy.  2) The vents, which is 
the only difference, would require much work to copy, probably about twice 
the time of molding the entire piece.  They are intricate slots, and would 
weaken the overall structure as well.  So that's why.  Not blasting anyone, 
just letting you know.  Once again, the Blau/Vortag/OEM spoilers are all the 
same piece, essentially.  The all have the exact same design.  The OEM piece 
is just a much nicer piece (duh, that's why I paid over 200$ used for it, and 
another 100$ to paint it...).  Therefore, I'll see what I can do with the OEM 
spoiler, But I think we can get the price around 100$ not including shipping, 
if all goes well and the guy is hard up for work...

Later!
