Like i said in your other thread, you can mention non-sponsor company names
you can't add links to their websites or put up any sort of info telling where to buy it, and you can't discuss their pricing
is it a thespoilercompany one or is there a new place that people are going to?

If I miss out on 6LE's spoiler; I now know where to get my SS spoiler from. As long as the fitment issues that I have to worry about.
Looks great. How was their service? I've seen them around as the company but never heard of anyone dealing with them as a company.

Well in their defense, after it didn't come when they said it shud and a slightly angry phone call, they did ship it overnight to me, so it wasn't their fault it was ordered through the other company. Slapped it on for quick test before work , and looks like fit is good. Final installtomorrow morning. Will update soon.

well, the pictures of test fit wont upload now for some reason, il keep trying, tried the photobucket url also no luck. but i can say if ur willing to do a little bit of work, the spoiler is good. at this point id have to say if u have a super clean car in mint condition, get an oem no matter the cost. but for the many like mine, clean car in good shape, but average wear and looks better from 10 feet than with a magnifying glass, this isthe ticket.
testing today revealed 2 things, first the spoiler is designed to put in place and screw screws in from underneath in to it. i didnt like this. so i found small double ended studs at the hardware store, course threads on one end to dig in, fine on the other for a nut. i installed them in to the spoiler so that it is like the factory one from my z, so when u put in place, u dont have to try threading a screw into it and hopee it threads well etc. they are currently mounted, and drying with a combo of loctite and rtv sealing them.
2nd, the grooves in the car, and corrosponding 'protrusions' on the spoiler do not line up and fit like a glove, i estimate sanding off an 1/8 inch wud let it slide in perfect. the way it is now u put on and its like hmm dam just a hair less here and itd be perfect. so i may do a little massaging. or il tight it up and see how it looks.
im also stalled out by waiting for the vht nightshades on the brake light to dry till 2mrow before putting it in. sorry for the long post but sounds like some of u appriciate the details. i swear im trying to upload pics and it just flashes and wont. il try again when i get up for work 2nite.
