I hope so. Duckbill looks really good on a dropped GE8. You guys think it will look weird on a stock height, stock wheeled, taffeta white GE8?

Looks weird in general, regardless of other mods.

Hi,

I've been lurking for quite awhile now slowly digesting all the mods available on this site.

After I saw this:

I decided that i will email John directly and I found out he had it in stock and was ready to ship. I bought it same day and was shipped same day.

Look what came via Fedex today!

The quality is superb. Just some small imperfections, but its hardly noticeable at all. I'll be installing it later today when the temps are a little cooler.

Blox Medium Shorty Antenna is on the way (3inch). I hope its enough to clear. Swift Springs are arriving this Tuesday and I will hopefully get it installed by the end of this week.

Couldn't resist here are some pics"

Sweet, looks good man. My brother just picked up a 2012 the same color as yours and is saving up to get one too. Makes a big difference I think.

Is your car lowered? Can you get a side shot please? The last few posts above discouraged me from buying since my fit isn't dropped, but seeing as yours kinda looks stock in some angles, it might re-spark the interest.

Again, thanks for the pictures xxryu139x. Here's a photochopped pic of your fit, lowered with stock wheels. Sorry for my photochopping skills I just squinted my eyes and pretended it was a TW fit. I think the stock wheel looks great with the spoiler.

lol. thanks for the chop. i agree it does look better on a lowered fit. i did get swifts and had em installed the other day. just havent gotten around to taking a picture of it.

Ok here's a pic on Swifts. The change is not drastic. It's very subtle.

Any updates to this? Is this still going on?

Looks like the last person to report (in the thread) that they received the duckbill is #10.

If you want it email John directly: sales@jdpengineering.com and see if he can still make one for you.
