OR Should I buy this Carbon Fiber spoiler?

Hi guys,

1) Some one is selling a Carbon Fiber Spoiler (looks universal) for $300. I took a look at it and it looks good but there is no brand name or any writing on it. feels light and robust. Looks very similar to this link below that I found on ebay but not exactly the same. The ebay one is selling for $200 so I am wondering if $300 is a good price for a spoiler looks similar to that. Any input please?

2) Do I just drill a few holes on my 88 vert? I have never put a spoiler on myself so kind of a newbie question here.

3) How do I know if the wing is mounted in the center of the trunk? what position? any tips on measuring?

Thanks a lot, guys

David
