either way i'm not expecting perfect fit since it's replica, but i think they should do a good job.

For the amount of finishing needed to get a mediocre fit, a $500 prepainted C55 spoiler from Harris is a much better deal with little risk. Maybe someone else can even do better. No reason to be penny wise and dollar foolish. It's not worht the effort to take pics. The front edge of the spoiler is not flat and despite spending an hour grinding and sanding the fit is better but still poor. The two corners that sit on the top of the trunk lift up and the spoiler would have to be built up to be usable.

I was the guy who criticized your packing since the box was torn in the corner and the tip was cracked since it wasn't covered by bubblewrap on the corners. I do have to praise your communication and shipping. They are unmatched considering you are halfway around the world. If I shipped the spoiler back, would you consider shipping a new one that is checked and found to be a better fitment than the original one?

True enough if you know about FRP
you can modify them to be usuable
and even you modify them and do proper sanding it will not cost that much
just email me at [deleted by moderator - TOU violation, non sponsor business]
if you want to clear up with me

I did buy the spoiler from you carlssonW208. I also paid more than $100. I have the paypal reciept. The reason i was selling it was it needed more modification to fit than I was looking to do. Im not sure if it was due to the packaging (The box was nearly off the spoiler by the time I got it). Also the one layer of bubble wrap didnt seem to protect it during shipping half way around the world. The spoiler looked exactly like Dr.Chill described his. I also did try to email you with no response. I was reluctant to ship it back to you considering your in taiwan, considering the time and hassle. If you can help me get a replacement that will fit wih out the extensive modification that the one you originally sent requires it would be greatly appreciated.
Oggle just for your info AUTOBLZ did not always sell them for $100. they were $160. https://mbworld.org/forums/classifieds/66290-fs-w203-parts-blow-off.html

I did receive partial reimbursement for the spoiler from Autoblz which was a nice gesture on his part. He is obviously trying to maintain good business practices and seems to be trustworthy and reliable. Future buyers of his replica spoilers must be aware that there will be a fair amount of modification required and the end result may not be satisfactory. The other alternative is to spend considerably more and get a better product, but it still may require some finishing before being able to mount it. I'm curious to see how Frank's spoiler will fit.
