i just received my lip spoiler. i got it on ebay and when i got it it wasn't solid plastic as i assumed. it is some sort of rubber (not quite sure what it is) but it bends, it still looks nice and just the same. it didn't say that it was like that on the ebay posting.
anybody have experience with installing one?
--thanks

 

Does it come prepainted and with the adhesive strip(s) at the bottom? If it isn't painted remember you'll have to use an adhesive promoter before priming. Also, use a bug/tar/grease remover on the rear deck so it'll stick properly.

 

it is painted and it does have the adhesive strips. i'm just wondering if there are any tricks to keeping the spoiler in place before sticking

 

Just clean the surface real good with the degreaser, you could also use a claybar but that might be a bit too much.

 

ok, i recently detailed it with some polishers and things. so i would just take that off then install the spoiler. thanks

 

i have the same lip spoiler from ebay..definitely looks very nice..and just like you, i thought it would be hard..make sure you have someone else with you who can give you a second opinion as to if its centered or not..just clean the surface with like windex, its fine

 

ok thanks

 

Its easy to do, you need 2 ppl yur prob gonna hav about a 1/8 gap at either end of th trunk all you do is go real slow around the lip of the trunk and use your thumb to guide it, clean really well and have the wextra person pull off the adhesiove tape, its easy i did it this weekend. Jsut htink about it nice addition to the trunk.

 

yup..i got mine from ebay too..but the damn white was different..i think it came with like alpine white and i have polar white..kinda sucked..but got in an accident which required a new door so i just painted the lowers..had s4 door blades..and that lip spoiler repainted and put on..all for FREE cuz the insurance paid for it..i didnt even have to pay my deductible..plus i had a hook up too

 

Got one from Ebay too. Looks great and cannot beat the price! I cleaned the trunk with rubbing alcohol prior to sticking it on. No problems.
