New Rear Spoiler

OK - so I went ahead and bought this off ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/_Car-...1%7C240%3A1318

I know it looks cheap, but I figure even if it is crap and I don’t use it, I’m only out $45. I read the sellers feedback and noticed he has sold several of these exact items and all the feedback was positive - do any forum members have this on their car? Reviews? Thoughts? I will be sure to post mine whan I receive the item...

The reason I bought this product is because I like this design better than the others with the “pocket” between the rear glass and the spoiler.

I bought the same spoiler (at least it was the same picture) from a different seller and the fitment & quality was very good.
Take a look.


It looks like you got it for a good price. You should be able to have it painted for $100 or less.
I ended up selling that one a few weeks later and bought a cf one to replace it.

Not sure what’s up with the link - the pics aren’t showing. BUT the one you have and what I ordered are a different design…

Yours does look sick though, BTW

i bought it from that guy. fitment was really good. however, the only thing would be to sand down the lines on the spoiler so it looks cleaner.

I haven't look at the fitment yet, I took it out of the box, and it's still in the garage.
