Personally, I'm not overly keen on the spoiler, a bit too big for my liking, but nice video

Thanks for the feedback.

yeah it might be a bit larger than the M-performance models.
IRL however I think it look really nice.

Any chance your car was ceramic
Coated prior to install? Any issues with tape sticking if it was ceramic coated?

You'll have to ask the OP, I haven't got the spoiler yet.

Sorry for the late reply!

I would think for the absolute best result a clean uncoated surface would be the best.
However what is key is to have the surface as clean as possible.

For ceramic coatings e.g an IPA will not remove it at least in my experience it will clean the surface but will not remove the coating. For a wax or other sealant this might maybe the case though.

My car has been coated with Soft99 Fusso Coat and I always apply P&S bead maker as top coating

Spoiler is on!

Got the spoiler on. The tape tore so unfortunately had to lift up the driver side to grab the edge and restock that side back on. Seems fairly stable and stuck on pretty good. 5mm or so on the driver side isn't in contact with the body but I think it will be fine. I used 3 lines of the tape and may be I should've cut back 2-4mm (just a heads up for anyone else reinstalling) because can see some Small pieces of tape from certain angles. Isn't the end of the world but a bit disappointing. Overall, not bad for a $140 carbon fiber spoiler. Love the shape and really changes the back end of the car dramatically, especially from a side view!

The spoiler looks great!
Did you get it from the same Ebay-seller?

Did you apply your own tape or the one that was provided?

These look to be the type 2 spoiler on www.jbspeed.com based on pics of the links you sent to ebay. However your spoiler installed on your car looks like its the other vorsteiner or v style one that is thicker. Can you take a look?

This is the one I got.
Overall very good quality and finish for the price. Just be careful with install (as for any spoiler you purchase) if you are neurotic and want a perfect application without any exposed tape and symmetry.

Oh and I used 3m tape I got from a local store rather than the tape it came with.

It's difficult to say on the pics available.
Maybe you can reach to JBspeed if they have pictures of actual installed spoilers.

If I can help out in anyway let me know. If you need any measurement or more pics let me know
