Hi guys, long shot here, but looking for some help...

To cut a very long story short, this was delivered to me in error by FedEX, who despite me calling them several times, have never got back to me.

Therfore before I take it to the local tip, I'm just wandering to myself if its worth any £££.....?

So, does anyone know the car its off? Big spoiler with a metal blade, which looks to be adjustable. It has a built in high level stop lamp too, but no manufactuer markings as such, except a few part numbers.

Almost sure it's off an Evo. The wing adjuster is virtually the same as on my VII.

ETA - Sign up to the MLR and put it up for sale on there if no one claims it.

It looks like the spoiler from a Mitsubishi Lancer Evo 5, or a generic version of it.

Actually I've changed my mind - instead of MLR, put it up on a corsa, nova, fiesta, saxo site.

thats the one but I agree it will make more money being sold to some eejit who drives a civic/saxo/etc with one of those naff bodykits trying to make a civic 1.4 saloon look like an evo!

Indeed - I'm pretty sure most Evo's come with a spoiler on! ALthough there is a (small) demand for replacements to damaged parts, or upgrades to older spec cars, or reverting to standard after fitting an aftermarket one.

How long ago did you receive it? If you just go straight ahead and sell it when it's obviously not yours then when whoever it does belong to turns up, you could find yourself in trouble.

I recieved it about 3 months ago now, probably longer. Its been sat in my kitchen at my flat for ages! I've done the decent thing by ringing FedEx to tell them its a mistake. The odd thing is that it was adresed to myself, which is the reason I signed for it.

A week prior to that, I had a set of alloy wheels delivered to me by FedEx, which I had bought online. I can only assume it was a system problem, that meant they sent out this package by accident....

FedEx pushed me to a smaller courier firm, who had sent the parcel via them. When I spoke with them, they took my details and said they would get back to me. Despite a follow up call, this never happened.
