well after reading loads of posts i thought what the hell and got some off ebay, they aint major bad there what i would give an o.k they met my expectations for 2 spoilers painted and shipped from china to the uk for 120 quid and nope customs didn't sting me a penny

my car is silver grey a08 and as i have found major hard to paint match from a standard block of different shades so of course like the damn bumpers look a different colour (thats another story) the spoilers arrived a different shade too, however i dont mind as i will wrap them with dinoc carbon 3m stuff when the roof is done.

i am not sure on fitment and alignment. the boot spoiler i am happy i put it on over the hump in the boot instead of try and align it on top of it i think i fitted it how it should be. the roof spoiler i am unsure on it does not go all the way across it just covers the window width. that i can live with maybe there all like that? however i dont know if to have it right against the roof or leave a gap for the gutter bit as pictured, simpley held on with 3m ticky tape stuff easily removed

I aligned my roof spoiler with the top of the window trim molding so yes there will be a small gap between the spoiler and the roof. Fitment is ok and not perfect by any means but still acceptable IMO.

I've had my "Chinese eBay spoilers" on for 2 years, paint still matches great. I only need to replace the trunk spoiler because it got cracked - my fault. I think the vendor was 4A motors
