Just got mine today, but didn't have time during lunch break to test fit. Not entirely happy with the workmanship and paint, but I guess I get what I paid for. On the rear edge, if you feel it you can feel that it's not smooth and there are several small bumps and one rather large bump on the right side. Paint also wasn't fully done and you can see the primer color exposed along the back edge (you can see this if you look at the car from the back). I'm going to try some touchup paint, but if that doesn't look good, I'm going to see about a refund or a replacement.

just pick mine up today i can say very fast shipping. The only thing i found wrong it lil scratches and small clear coat dots and if it is me anyone who put theirs on check the driver side of the trunk spoiler tell me if it fits meaning does the end life a little bc the double side tape dont stick or can be a small fitment issue. Roof spoiler was very easy to install i would recommend to get help install with 2 people bc it is def easier. add more plenty of masking tape for both of the spoilers let it sit overnight and then take it out in the morning.
pictures were taken with my 3.2 camera phone.

Check out the different angles in my pix... the worst is from straight on in the back... the other ones all look super clean...
all in all, i think it was a good addition and I am satisfied with the enhanced look

ya, the first 5 mins, i was very skeptical, but then 5 mins later somehow i fell in love with the look... although the look from the rear might still take some getting used to... 45 degree angle views are the best..

mine installed nice (see pics above), but here is a tip for you guys that haventinstalled yet...
DONT PUSH TOO HARD ON THE SPOILER TO MAKE IT STICK!
I did this in order to make sure the tape stuck, and I frickin put 2 little dents in the spoiler...
only noticeable if u are really looking, but was just an uneccesary F-up that didnt need to go down, that only OCD heads like myself will be pissed about for a few days...

no im talking about pushing on the actual roof spoiler... i pushed too hard while securing the tape, and the actual roof spoiler has a few small dents in it... i guess the fiber glass its made out of is fragile stuff...

all i did, was line up the left side, secure the left by slowly peeling, then keep pressure from the edge forcing it flush against the top pano part to eliminate the gap, then peel the top off
after going all the way accross, i secured the right side slowly by peeling the back very slow
then secured the bottom LAST, by peeling and appling pressure very slow
end result, spoiler fits perfect and sits flush

@ Spec.
The tape for the trunk sucks, have tried it also with thicker 3m Tape but still didnt work, so i have to stick it with 3M Window Bonding... now it sticks good..
The roof spoiler was good, also the tape sticks good.
Also looks nice on your car...
@ Rb.
Looks nice man, also matches good with the pano roof....
@ Bokx
