Rear Deck Spoiler

Just wanted to post this spoiler I bought from eBay. If you guys like it you can buy it at the link below. I like it but still need to paint it black. You don't have to but I want to. I'm also going to integrated to the trunk so it looks like factory. But it looks great as is... This spoiler is the highest one I have found around. The rest are not as high, this looks pretty good.

how close to the edge did you put this spoiler?
spoiler seen in ebay link is placed more inwards on trunk lid which looks bad

I went back as much as possible. Maybe this picture can help you see. I would have loved to install it 1/4 inch back more. But than the edges would not meet the edges on the car (if that makes sense). I definitely installed it better than the eBay pictures.

Thanks. Going to paint once I decide if I'm going to blend it in with the trunk. Haven't decided yet, but most likely I will.

Sulaco's I'm sure you have to drill and bolt on.
Mines you buy some strong glue at auto parts.
I bought a brand that dries within 5 minutes. Once dry it ain't going anywhere.
