I got mine this morning. I was really impressed on how well packed it arrived. Overall the quality is very good. The fitment is also great. I really doubt that anyone is able to tell it is not OEM.
BUT... I tried installing it and there is a small problem with the double side tape. First of all, I dont think there is enough tape surface to hold the spoiler tight. Anyways, the lower tape strip (the one opposite to the roof) doesnt touch the glass at all. The edge on the spoiler goes out a little further than the tape's height. I'll have to add another strip of tape to make it thicker. This is a minor proble but it will add +1 hour to the installation time
What would the best double side tape for this job be? Where could I get it? Thanks

The tape on mine was fine on both sides...you do have to bend it around the glass but the tape seems to be holding fine
here are 2 pics....sorry for crappy quality as i took them with camera phone
I left a slight gap as I thought it looked better than flush with roof

Yeah. I know it has to be bent in order to fit good. I actually installed mine and the fit was very good. Flush with the entire glass. The problem was that the bottom edge was loose (because of the problem described before). So I took it off. I'll add the extra strip of tape this afternoon. Any sugestion on what tape to buy?

OH MY GOD!!!!! THIS IS GOTTA BE THE FASTEST DELIVERY IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD!! less than 2 business days from Taiwan to Chicago. Brad shipped it out last Friday and arrived today. I just installed it. color, fitment are both good. No problem with tape. took me 10 minutes to install. I hope the tape holds. I have seen the OEM one, it also uses the same tape and same amount.
Oh, i heard the Sun is suppose to make the tape adhere better and make the shape of the spoiler mold to the shape of the glass to have better fit over time. so we shall see.

Sorry guys no pics yet, i bought some special tape, but i'm not satisfied about the tape. There was a gap and the tape didn't hold it good. There's a little tension on one side.. so the spoiler came off a bit.
So i put off the Trunkspoiler again, now i bought special 3M bonding. (3M 08603 w/shield bonding sys blk 310ml) to make sure the trunk spoiler is fitted good and i dont lose it. Try to fit it tomorrow, and will post some pics soon.
