I posted this in the Aftermarket Spoiler Opinions thread but wanted to post this here as well so everyone is aware...
I wanted to share some vital information regarding spoilers for sale on ebay, specifically from the seller autowingandspoilerking.
About 6 months ago, I purchased a spoiler off of ebay from the seller autowingandspoilerking that looks exactly like the ones in the photos
here. The spoiler I purchased is the kind with the LED light that sits flush in the back of the spoiler (not the kind that has the LED light on the bottom edge of the spoiler). Upon receiving my spoiler, I noticed the top of the LED light cutout in the spoiler dipped down a bit creating a gap between the edge of the cutout and LED light. This would allow water to enter into the LED light as well as the spoiler.
Concerned with the quality, I contacted the seller who is also the manufacturer of the spoiler. They told me the mold was messed up and they had fixed the issue and would send me a new spoiler (fixed) free of charge. Pleased with the customer service I awaited my next spoiler with my worries resolved. When receiving the next spoiler, I was quite upset when opening it. Although the gap was not as big as the first spoiler I received, there was still a gap in the same location that would allow water to enter into the light and spoiler.
The seller did end up refunding my money but they said about the issue of the gap:
"Maybe 1 out of 100 complain. I'll take that percentage, so I continue to sell it. Sorry you happen to be the one who doesn't like it."
I am happy I got my money back but pretty pissed they think that I am just being picky. I ended up installing the spoiler and used RV silicone to seal the light. Well, after a couple of months and a few good storms, I noticed water in my light. As of today, I have purchased a new spoiler from
eSpoiler which appears to be much better quality and does not have a chance of having the same issues because the light is on the bottom edge of the spoiler.
Just wanted to share this info with anyone who finds this thread looking for a place to purchase a spoiler. I will update in a week or so when I get my new one from eSpoiler but as of right now, I would suggest getting one that has the light on the bottom edge like those from eSpoiler do.
