ahh. How much was it? I see no-name brand ones on eBay for $50 and the Pure is $199. Just wondering if you paid the higher price.....doesn't seem worth it.

I removed Chef-Matts tips from his black 2012 300 and he had his tips powdercoated in gloss black, they turned out great.

The rear trunk wing emblem is peel and stick from the factory. There are no guide holes drilled into the trunk lid like the Gen I 300's. I bought a second trunk wing and had it painted in Bright white. I used painters tape and taped a box around the factory wing. Then removed the factory wing, clean up the excess 3M tape, then affixed the painted wing to the trunk lid and then removed the blue painters tape.

Looks great, especially the wing. I strongly believe the 2011 rear wings do have clips in them, which means there are small holes in the trunk. I tried taking mine off when I debadged the trunk, and I got hung up on both sides of the wing in exact same spot. I peeled the wing back enough to where it was getting hung up and I could see plastic tab going in to the trunk.

This is where I bought mine off of EBay. $135 and it already came in Bright White car color. They offer 4 pre-painted colors, if yours is not listed there is an additional charge to have yours painted in your color. I was not impressed with there paint job (lots of orange peel, not 100% match to my body color), so I had my painter re-shoot it.

Odd they would change that, I def. do not have holes in my 2012 trunk lid. If you do have holes than you can order the lighted rear wing mod from AAC and use the hole to pass the wire through for the lighted wing mod. I would have installed the lighted rear wing, but did not want to drill a hole in my trunk lid as one day I may choose not to run a wing on the trunk lid.

Yep, that was me you were parked next to at the recent Lone Star Mopar Fest. It was an honor to have another GenII 300S parked next to mine.
