My CF Roof Spoiler

Hey guys ....

I finally got my CF Roof Spoiler to go along with my CF Rear Spoiler , CF Mirrors and CF Door Pillars The fitting was very good and it came with it's own 3M tape which not for nothing doesn't feel like it's gonna come off anytime soon ..... well hopefully anyways Drove up the GSP at about 90 mpg and it's still on so i guess that's good news no Hmmmmm CF lip or rear diffuser next ???

One thing I noticed when I received my roof spoiler and trunk spoiler, was that the "3M" tape that was included didn't seem like real 3M tape. . Maybe it's just me but I was a bit hesitant to use the provided tape and went to AutoZone to purchase packaged 3M tape. The tape I bought was a bit wider than the tape provided so it covered more space, hopefully reducing the chances of them flying off the car.

I was soo hesitant about getting the roof spoiler after reading about all these issues of 3M tape , spoilers flying away and whatnot but i thought it would complete the look so i decided to take a chance and get this one and was pleasantly surprised to feel how strong the spoiler felt after attaching it. It was like a one time attempt where if we got it wrong it was going to be a b**tch taking it off and adjusting well only time will tell no ??? Keeping my fingers crossed !!!

You really would not want to see me in a bikini, it would be best if I keep my street clothes on. But seriously next time you are on LI I would love to shoot some pics of the two cars together. And if YOU (not ME) want to wear a bikini I would not object.

Salamat i actually feel more comfortable with the 3M taping i received with my roof spoiler than my trunk ! I remember there was like a 6 plust page thread of a group buy for a roof spoiler which turned out to be a "how to and with which tape" discussion on how to keep the spoiler on. I really think it has a lot to do with fitment and that everything is touching the glass solidly thus the tape will keep it on. Like i said i drove pretty quickly just after installing it and it stayed on yay but nevertheless i will keep my fingers crossed !!

Looks good the roof spoiler looks like it blends with your car, I lost 1 on the freeway the 3M tape didn't work for me.

Looks good Elaine. Where have you been?

Seems like everyone who taped their spoiler should also run a bead of silicone sealant for added measure.

The 3M tape that came with my roof spoiler last me about 2 weeks, and it came off half way. Put about 3x the amount of the original 3M tape on mine and never have to worry about the spoiler anymore
