Ill buy the roof cap if you end having to take it.

But Wez that spoiler looks horrible. The hood I may let slide but the trunk and spoiler is BS and I would ask for refund. S

Just realized for $100 more, you can buy the remote one! I might get that since my car is lowered the plate gets f-ed up... So think about replacing the thing every year or so...

hahah, believe me that was my first choice. 2 reasons. 1) unlike the OEM, there is not a flat surface to mount the 3M tape to the spoiler. The OEM has a lip under the spoiler dedicated for this purpos. 2) the twist in the CF was bad enough that 3M wouldnt hold it down and in the summer time it would most likely peel up under the heat.

Seibon is crap period. The hood for my G35 cracked all over after acouple months, very common actually. I would never ever buy seibon again.
