spoiler test fit pics
Here are some pics. It looks bad but believe me everything lines up and wont stick up once I tape it down. It goes to the shop on monday for paint.

M3 custom type (modded by me cause it was too big before). The hybrid spoiler does not look good imo, especially since it has a cutout for the H and I dont have one.

Looks pretty good, I'm a fan of the Hybrid lip tho, are you installing it yourself? or are you just taking it into a shop for painting.(I'm a little gun shy of drilling holes in my trunk.)

Yeah, it does adhere with tape, you are correct Rennen
And yeah, It is facing the wrong way, I think he just wanted to check how well it fit in between the taillights

My bad, I thought he meant by TAPE IT DOWN was to take a couple other pieces of scotch tape to the ends of the lip to make it flush w/ the deck.
Never heard of the taped down lip tho, should look into it, sounds like a nice & easy install

well thats how its going on. the "right" way does not fit the curved sedan trunk. This was for a coupe at one time. The way i put it on fits perfectly with the curve of the trunk. yes i'm using 3m double side tape once its painted by the shop.

ya but it doesnt look good going over the taillight so i chopped off the ends. and i dont want the shop forming it. its gonna look all bent up if they do. and i think it looks better standing up anyway

the way you have it looks retarded. the whole point is that wind will hit and and go over. although this is for looks, not functionality. it looks retarded backwards.

yeh the lip spoiler looks better as it is meant to look like. when it's cut, it looks like it's shorthanded just like some guys pants that's 3 inches higher. it doesn't look good at all.

haha! well i like mine to not cover the tails. it will overlap but only like 1/2 inch. i think it looks like it wasn't meant to fit with it hanging over the light. Now off i go to autozone to find some paint
