Default It most certainly is sir...(more)

... and I definitely like it that way.

Should I wish to remove it I can do so very easily with a heat gun and some unwaxed dental tape or floss.

Did not want to drill holes in the decklid for a permanent installation, and I really do not like the size or 'sweep' of the OE lip spoiler.

By the way... the quality of this spoiler is superb... and it is made of a seemingly (only time will tell) durable hard urethane... and the paint match was factory spot on and more than adequately applied.

Less money well spent IMHO.

Default Ok then, im glad to hear yours isa better fit etc..

but i just mentioned it because someone hated theirs. Let us know how it holds up long term though and if the paint stays nice looking too and doesnt fade....sorry im a skeptic but glad to hear if it works out for you too.

Default Where did you get the spoiler? I am thinking of getting one also,,,

Not sure about which one. Spoiler Deopot or something a little different like the Zender lip spoiler.

Default I appreciate that and (more)...

...issues out there would seem to be part and parcel of installation rather than that of the product's innate qualiity...

I would guess this because I can see that if an individual did not have a clear and correct idea of how to install the item... that things could go terribly wrong very quickly.

If the product arrives in a shabby state however, then I would actually have to agree with your line of reasoning. :-)

Default The spoiler comes painted in your car's respective factory color, and...(more)

...costs $102 total delivered via priority mail insured... and was packaged very well as to preclude the great majority of USPS mishaps.

It is flexible urethane and adhere's to your car with pre-placed industrial strength adhesive strips.

Look up Xenonspecialist on ebay. Here is a link to my finished auction as well. You can look in the seller's store for the auction that refers to your specific color...

Default I would love to say 'fiddy' or 'tree fiddy', but it costs $0. It is pre-painted ! (more)

Your car's factory color... and the match is spot on. :-)
