you need to mod the trunk in order for the CR wing to fit properly

What do you mean mod the trunk?

I thought you just need to take the trunk to a body shop ... fill the holes and spray over the trunk again

personally I would just do a swap if the conditions of the trunks are similar

you'll need to insert reinforcements so that the trunk won't flex. Go to the dealership, look at the underside of the CR trunk and fab up something similar. You might even be able to buy those reinforcement parts separately from the dealership....

I'm not 100% shure wether the reinforcements are the integrated in the trunk or if they are bolt on pieces, so hopefully somebody will back me up.

? What reinforcement parts are you referring to

I have the CR wing and it doesn't have any reinforcement parts. I only bought the wing + the stands + rubber stubs (to go along the gutter area) + those stiffer trunk springs (which only help to hold the heavier trunk up, and don't do anything to stiffen up the trunk)

The parts list don't suggest there is anything more than the parts that I listed though

CR trunk is different. There are new mounting points for the CR wing and the trunk has cross bracing. Remember the CR is fully functional aerodynamic component of the CR and works in tandem with the front lower spoiler. Anything less is simply ricer IMO
