your suprised? I have not seen one aftermarket spoiler that fits even close to as good as stock. but dont feel bad, about 2.5 years ago I bought an aftermarket one too, got rid of that peice of **** and got a nice oem ss spoiler, which is the only way to go!

So what if the columns don't touch the body. Who will notice. Mine fit perfectly. Anyway the ss spoiler will look better than stock flat spoiler.

you need to put some double sided tape on the pillars to make them touch. put some weight on the spoiler overnight so the tape will get a good grip and wont come off.

just spend the extra money and get an OEM one on ebay or in the for sale section on this site, you WILL NOT regret it, and you will be much happier with how it fits, and not have to worry about it sticking up too much on the sides or stupid **** like that.....check out the nice fit on mine..got it for $350 shipped

This is a thread comparing OEM to one of the best after-market spoilers. Hope it helps.

You need the double sided tape pad that comes with the posts this will allow it to sit flush with the deck lid.

Alright, we've got the same color car.

Where did you get your spoiler from, and how much to get it PAINTED (cuz they don't make the SS Spoiler for our color code)

I got it for $350 shipped on ebay, and got it painted for like...$300....I think, I mean that was a while ago, but I think it was around $300 for paint+color match

I bought a commando wing from Wings West and thought it was warped at first, but then realized that it came with double sided tape and shims to install it just right. Hopefully the fiberglass isn't warped. I had a Suncoast Creations ram air hood that warped with the heat of the summer and it cracked the paint job.
