93 hopefully it fits good or at least good enough.

I went through 3 of them...all 3 had different fitment issues that I personally could not live with. It is completely a craps shoot with them. With it being CF, to me it appears that all are cut by hand and not by a template or else all would have the same fitment issue...logically thinking...either way...if you get one that fits...I envy you. Great addition though!

People said they had great fitment, which is why I went for it in the first place. Guess we'll find out !

Fitment seems okay, the only concern I have is where the camera and trunk button are. I've been told it goes straight over the chrome piece but I'm wondering if it's any better to remove it.

Looks like the fitment may be a bit off, but if you use some 3M adhesion promoter when you install it then hopefully it will hold the front edge down without it lifting. With the front edge held down completely you might even find that the duckbill on the spoiler points upwards a bit more than it is in your pre-fitment test.


Regarding the chrome finisher. Unfortunately you have to leave that piece in place, as that's what the rear camera and trunk button a mounted to. When I installed my AutokitsX spoiler I painted the chrome finisher ivory pearl to match the body so it wouldn't be so obvious when looking through the camera hole in the new spoiler. Then when I switch to the Carbon Signal spoiler I painted it black for the same reason since the new spoiler was Carbon Fiber. Now I've had the Carbon Signal spoiler moulded into the trunk lid (with the factory chrome finisher still in place).

I like your idea of just leaving a bit of CF showing. Much more subtle than leaving it all CF. Here's a couple pics of mine with a similar effect.

I was originally going to paint the calipers red.. but I am torn now..

Not sure if the red pop of the calipers would be good it bad.. the silver is just a really clean look right now
