While looking through the forum i found a 5 with a speedracer decklid which is a first for me. Thought it looked good, anyone know where to buy one? is it easy to attatch or does it require particular clips to be installed? wat do ppl think of the decklid?

Thanks in advance for answering more of my noob questions.

Cheers.

Can you please update your profile to include your location, it helps form members give advice.

Someone might know someone locally who has one for sale.
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

There are a number of different decklids available for the 5. One of the more recent is the Speed racer version. It is made in QLD, and was designed to fit with the torque box roll bars. More info can be found in the group buy thread.

By my count, there are only a grand total of 5 Speed Racer decklids on the road 8)

Very solid construction, fluid shape, fits the NB shape (re: child bearing hips) a bit better than NA.
