Looks good except for the gap and white tape. Had the same problem too. It looks exactly how yours is now. I had the guy pull it off and pretty much glue the spoiler on. I wasn't going to take it off so I went that route. Hope you get this resolved.

That needs to be redone. What body shop did the install?
I am taking it to Bruce at TT Motorsports to redo the install one week from this Friday.
I have no doubt that Bruce will get it right. I was in Long Island today for a court appearance in Central Islip so I decided to swing by TT Motorsports to discuss an ECU reflash and the spoiler.
I liked Bruce and he seemed very knowledgeable.

A body shop in Brooklyn. They did a good job on the paint matching but not the install.
I am taking it to Bruce at TT Motorsports to redo the install one week from this Friday.
I have no doubt that Bruce will get it right. I was in Long Island today for a court appearance in Central Islip so I decided to swing by TT Motorsports to discuss an ECU reflash and the spoiler.

Rock on, buddy!
(again, sorry about Jacob - I'll have a talk with him and try to straighten him out next time I'm over there

Me too. In any event, the one I have is not a spoiler you want. It has been repainted (from Amethyst Grey to Carbon Black) and now has some pitting in the paint. The body shop guy contends that that is due to the repainting process. The problem is that the pitting is evident in the light. The paint is there but in the pitted areas, it is a little uneven.
