Aftermarket Spoiler Opinions

Duplicolor perfect match rattle cans.

I did a coat of adhesion promoter, 4 coats of base, and 4 coats of clear (2 light, 2 heavy).

Matches pretty well. Haven't officially installed it yet but it looks good in the garage.

Hows everything holding up for you. I'm ready to pull the trigger myself if you're still standing behind this spoiler!
 
Has anyone installed an aftermarket spoiler to replace a OEM spoiler. I have a OEM spoiler that was damaged from a tree branch. I was hoping that the aftermarkets would have the same mounting holes. Anyone have any experience with this?

From reading both this thread and others. Its a crapshoot. All aftermarket spoilers appear to have slight differences in mounting holes.

No issues with the spoiler itself. Not much to go wrong with it. It's just a molded piece of plastic. "Dry" fitment is fine.

I never ended up installing it. It's still sitting in my basement. Once I got it out in the sunlight, I noticed some mottling (pooling) in the metallic on the underside of the spoiler that bothered me. Also, the duplicolor clear coat never completely hardened. It was really gummy when I went to wet sand and buff it even after drying for over a week.

I plan on repainting it and this time spraying it with a proper 2 part catalyzed clear coat. I have some in my garage. I just didn't feel like setting up my hvlp sprayer and mixing things at the time.

Life has gotten in the way. We moved in April so house projects and having a baby (almost toddler now) really gets in the way of car modding. Whenever I finally install it, I'll post pics.

Although I noticed the local dealer has a really nice '10 T4R limited 4x4 in silver for a good price that's very tempting lol.
 
I ended up purchasing a spoiler on eBay from user thespoilerstore. I was dead set on finding a spoiler that had the rear brake light flat on the back like OEM. The spoiler was relatively easy to install once I got over the fear of drilling into my vehicle lol.

The only negative about this spoiler is the brake light lense does not sit perfectly flat in the spoiler. There is a a slight bow to it at the top. In fact, I believe another user here had this same experience. I have not gotten water or moisture in mine, it's been installed about 3 months. To the average user, you probably wouldn't notice the bow in the light.
 
Don't mean to revive an older thread but the espoiler.com website seems to be working fine now and their aftermarket spoilers are available for $102.

Thinking of picking one up for my T4R.

Did you try ordering? IIRC the issued popped up when you sent in the order and got an error.

No, I didn't. I'm not actually ready to order a spoiler yet. On the espoiler website, I went so far as selecting one and putting it in my cart but never went through with actually ordering it, so you may be correct and the site may still be down.
