Are your windows wrapped, or did you paint them? They really set your wheels off!

Great lens, especially so at that price! I use a Fuji XT1 mirrorless. My favorite is a 56mm f/1.2 prime lens.

Yes it will, I think this because I will be taking off the chrome spoiler to allow more room to move and adjust the spoiler, followed by a whole lot more 3m tape layered on the spoiler itself. As well as this will be a 2-3 man job because I want every aspect aligned properly. I will be taking my time with this project as I want to spend an entire day doing this. Currently I do not have the availability yet to finish this project.

Fitment looks pretty good. Can't wait to see it fully installed.


Just keep in mind that the rear camera and trunk button both mount to the inside of the chrome finisher, so if you try to permanently remove the chrome finisher you will lose those mounting points.

2G - I have yet to take it apart and see what you are talking about, but I will keep it in mind.

Hex - Did you have trouble mounting the camera and button from the chrome spoiler? It looks very flush in that picture.

Lovely shot! Your car looks really good on those springs. Any info on the car to your left? Interested in seeing the TS diffuser from a different angle on an OB car.

No trouble at all, it overlays on top of the chrome spoiler, the button and camera are just cutouts. Both were fairly spot on. I had to cut a bit off the bottom of the camera hole, but it was like 2 mm.

Did you have to lose brackets in order to fit the rear spoiler as 2G mentioned?

It looks really clean I hope to have it on and ready before VQ nyc rollout on oct 1st.

I agree! Awesome shot! Too bad his trunk is open though.

I believe Andy was trying to say that he retained the factory chrome finisher and just installed the spoiler over it. I've had 4 different spoilers on my car and they all were designed to retain the factory chrome finisher since that's the piece that holds the camera and trunk button in place. If you try to remove the chrome finisher then you will need to find/construct new mounting points for your camera and trunk button. Make sense?
