Default SS spoiler pics *finally!*

Well, as I have posted before, I have had quite the hassle with SS spoilers...

8 months, 5 aftermarket, and 2 OEM SS spoilers later, I finally recieved one in good enough condition for paint! So, had it painted and the whole ordeal is FINALLY over!

Was it worth it? Probably not, but I was persistent and am happy with the result.

Looks great. But wow, you went through 5 aftermarket ones? What was the problem with all of those? I was looking at an aftermarket, but maybe I should reconsider.

every aftermarket spoiler had either runny paint, stress cracks, WHOLE chunks of the spoiler missing, boxes arriving with some of the spoiler STICKING out, etc.

the first oem one was damaged during shipping, had to file a claim with UPS and FINALLY got my money back.

this one arrived perfect, thank god, had it painted and the whole thing is now over with.
