Yeah,I bought a WW 98+ SS spoiler about 4 years ago now and the fitment is not good, it needs to have about a half inch taken off each corner where it meets the hatch to fit flush with the rear quarter panel. But the painter told me the finish was fine, didn't take much prep work before painting and it does come with the LED brake light, even appears to be the correct length like the stock SS cars came with. I don't know if the quality has changed in four years but that was just my experience, hope it helped. I will try to get some pics up later of what Im talking about.

^^^I guess no two are the same that looks pretty good. I would go ahead and get it if you have a competent body man Yahelou, they can take care of it very easily but I know the boat you are in I am very impatient and I wanted it on my car so I just had it painted and thrown on. Some winter I will take care of it the right way, oh by the way I didn't get a chance to take pics of it today I will take them tomorrow and post them tomorrow night.

They generally will need a bit of work, but nothing a competant body shop can't handle.

Ok here are the pics. FYI the last 2 pics are with the trunk popped, it doesn't sit that high I just needed to get the vantage point of how it was mounted to the deck, the first pic is with it closed. Sorta sucks, oh well looks good from 10 feet away

Here is my WW SS spoiler. I think it fits just fine for an aftermarket piece, no complaints. I know its not OEM, but it pleases me and thats what counts.

Go with the spoilercompany off ebay. Do your research on them and you will see they're fitment is top notch for aftermarket. Look up a thread by demonbird as he did a review on it.

Here it is on my car:





And no, the picture don't just make it look that good, it actually does fit that well and look just as good in person as it does in the pictures.
