how flush does your spoiler sit? I can see a small gap in the middle , also each end seems to have a gap on the sides of the trunk...


did any of you dremmel some high points on the inside of the spoiler , where the 3m tape will be placed?

 

Use my method and no Dremmel needed

 

It will never sit flush... its a spoiler. Unless you use body filler to "mold" it onto the body/trunk.

Mine sits on the portion of the edge of the trunk. There are 2 lines that make up the edge. Its hard to describe it

I'd be weary of relying solely on 3M tape, I have heard way too many horror stories of spoilers flying off on the freeway. If I had to do it again I'd do the same steps:


Maybe they didnt clean up the area, or left wax on the body.... I trust 3M and have used it for years. If you clean up the body correctly, theres no reason it would come off.

 

pjinca , thanks for the instructions.. I will try it this weekend.

Artic , your spoiler seems to sit really flush compared to mine. =\

 

mine sits just right, IMO.

Ive seen other spoilers that sit on the top portion of the trunk, i didnt like the way they looked.

post pics of yours, lets see what it looks like

 

pics of my spoiler are in my gallery

 

looks like we have the same one?

 

Yeah, I think we do. I got mine from eBay seller 4A-Motors, got the roof and trunk spoiler painted for $180 over 2 years ago. Paint matched perfectly, and so far no problems that weren't self inflicted (my wife left a breaker bar in the way when I was backing in, spoiler cracked and needs replacing)
