I'm surprised Euroteck spoiler did that. I heard they were higher end epoxy resin UV CF. Didn't have any issues with mine. How long did you have it on if you don't mind my asking?

The Vorsteiner one should be high quality.

A good rule of thumb is to get any of your CF pieces clear coated before install

Try contacting Euroteck.... maybe a bad unit? I had mine for several years out in California year round sun and didn't yellow or degrade.

And yeah... Vorsteiner you are paying an arm and a leg.

Sorry about the spoiler issues.

I just PM'ed you AMG E Power. I'm not sure if this helps, but we can overlay parts in carbon fiber and could definitely do a spoiler project for you.
