Got a new spoiler from ebay, seller's name is thespoilercompany. Can even have them paint it, from what I hear.
fits like a glove and the quality is superb
any questions or comments?

I just installed one from the same company a few weeks ago and I love it. Also, if you add $75 to your order they will paint with factory matching paint (supply then with paint code). Paint matched my car perfectly. Can't beat $226 shipped and painted (had a paypal coupon that saved me $19).
If you do decide to get it painted they will install a pretty big piece of foam on the sides of the spoiler to protect the paint and I guess weather seal the bolt holes. The foam made the spoiler stick up too much so I removed it which wasnt too bad, most of it peals off and the rest you can get off with some goo gone and alcohol. Instead of the foam I simply cleaned the area around the bolts holes and 3rd brake light harness hole on the hatch and applied some black rtv sealant, then installed the spoiler. I will wash the car later this week to make sure it seals. I do use the foam pieces under the center posts though. I'm sure if you let them know ahead of time they can just include the foam instead of installing it for you.

thanks man. yeah im skeptic about buying any body panels from anywhere thats not OEM. ive worked with my dad a lot on cars from old muscle cars to hondas. most crap out there wont fit. but ive heard some good stuff about the spoiler company i bought this from. and had to see it for myself.

thats good to know, some of them are heavy. I wasnt sure if this was one of them. If anyone gets a chance I wounder what the weight differnce is over a GM?
Some aftermarket ones have a 3rd gen light thats smaller.
