Hey guys, I'll be doing some more work on it tonight. I agree with Kidcane, it has a lot of area that mounts to the bumper with double-sided tape. I don't like the look of the depth difference between the bumper and the spoiler; hence the molding. The design is really nice and the fitment is dead-on, but I will definitely like the look of it molded, better. It may have never been molded before because plastic-welding is a lot more involved than molding fiberglass. That doubled with the great amount of surface area requiring molding, makes it even that much more involved. I'm looking forward to the outcome.

There is a thread on here comparing the JP, Stillen, Autokits, and AIT spoilers, with pics of each. Weiboy used to have the Stillen on his G and it looks really sharp.

Nice! Doing it right is the only way. I just cringe when I see lips that are NOT molded, they look crappy imo.

This will DEF be worth all the time effort in the end. Such a clean front when molded!
