For the spoiler, I'd try GM Direct Parts. TTR is a pretty damn good place to get the Injen. Nice price/fast shipping!

Here's a direct link to the chea[est place for parts (this is a direct link to the spoilers, you can hit the HOME button on thewebpage):

your welcome!

Installation of which? Wait, it doesn't matter, both are easy. Do it yourself. The intake and the spoiler are both just a couple of screws, pretty simply really.

no no no..hehe..im not dumb..its just that i dont have a bodyshop in my backyard to install the spoiler...because i was asking if i get the pre painted spoiler will it match my color good...but then ppl told me to go ahead and let the dealer install it..so i was wondering how much dealer would charge for paint and install

No, don't do that. WAY too much money. Buy the spoiler from GM, whatever GM source you want. Then if you didn't buy the color matched one, have a local body shop paint it to match. Then install it yourself. That is the cheapest way to go.

The color matched wings from GM Accessories are the exact same colors of the car. I'm not sure why people think otherwise.

Yeah man... the install of a spoiler is easy... especially if you already have one on and you are just changing it out. Un bolt one, then bolt the other on. I had to punch and drill the holes on my Jetta I had when I put the OEM spoiler on it. That was fun. I measured that dude a billion times before I drilled anything! Really didn't feel like having random holes all over the trunk lid. So no need for a body shop. Just do what everyone said and get that bad boy painted someplace with a great rep and put it on yourself! Same with the intake... it is easy to rip the old out and put the new in!
