Think I'm going to order as well. How are you guys who are buying through eBay able to specify your color?

Thanks for the list.

Hey guys, if I wanted to be adventurous and really get a black spoiler for my AW, which black do you think goes better?

Don't get metallic if your car is not metallic. That'll look weird.

Just a cautionary note on instillation on the inexpensive white spoiler shown on this post. The paint quality is great,but do not use masking tape on the spoiler when you position it.
I should have realized that the paint had not cured yet. When I removed the tape for final placement ,some of the clear came off with it. The spoiler is a great product for the money and the error was mine,not the manufacturer . I had to take it to a local shop for buffing and sanding.

Mine just delivered.
Color of spoiler match with car one perfectly; lenght is OK.
I tried to check the fitting: result is that both sides of spoiler doesn't match with trunk (see photos). It doesn't look good, in my opinion.
Anyone looked at the same behaviour?
Please can anyone send me a photo from the same perspective to have a comparison?
Thanks

Secure the center first,then match the lower spoiler edge on each side to the upper edge of the tail lights. In other words,you have to bend the spoiler outer edges to be fixed in the same position at the same starting point frame of reference.

Rj, can you describe that again. I'm not really clear about what you're saying about the outer edges of the spoiler.

I see what you are saying about the outer edge of the spoiler and the angle of the end of the spoiler not matching/ following the angle of the trunk/ taillight angle.

I wish that the end angles were most closely matching and following these lines.

I agree it is not the best when viewing from the straight down view at the edge but I will hold my personal judgements until I see it mounted on my car as well.

The end cut off Angle at the end edge should be more like this.

Have to agree, it needs to be tapered in the same manner that the trunk is or you got this seriously horrible gap.

Item ordered. ship dates came and gone. No response to multiple emails from myself or eBay. Resolution: eBay canceled the order and issued a refund.

Just got mine and had my son help me put it on last night....took us less then 5 minutes to do. I know this is useless without pics but it's raining this morning.
I love the look and the space grey paint matched perfectly. We started at one end with the tape peeled back the first 7 inches or so as he held one end we started to put it down as we peeled it away. We just let it sit on the surface as we laid it down. Once we had it right we pressed into into place.


So thrilled with this cheap mod.
