I ordered the same spoiler and it arrived today. It?s at the shop right now. I went to three different auto body shops the best price I got was $80.00 the other 2 places wanted $125.00 for the job.
These pictures you posted are going to be very helpful for me when I begin installing the spoiler. I like how you can barely notice the clips.

:lol: See what I started? Everyone is getting my spoiler!! hehehe



Anyway...
When you are ready to install it, I reccomend that you have a friend help.
The double sided adhesive pieces that come with the spoiler are VERY sticky and VERY strong.
Once they stick, you may not be able to remove them without destroying them.

Clean the glass very well with a non-amonia based glass cleaner.

So ... when you are ready to install it, put it in place without removing the adhesive so it just lifts righ off.
This is so you and your friend can agree on the EXACT place you want it to go.
You both can agree on how far up and how much space to the sides it will have so that it looks even at the time of the actual installation.
Nothing would suck more than getting it stuck in place with a big gap one side, no gap the other side, one top edge very close to the roof and the other top edge with 2 finger's width of space betwen the spoiler and the roof. LOL

So ... just do a non-adhesive placement with a friend and it should come out looking great.

i also recommend to be extra careful if you want to just mock the spoiler on there and out line the wing with like a black marker so then you don't have to guess when you put it on for good. then just take like an alcohol swab and wipe off the marker.

i saw a spoiler about 3 years ago and it looked like yours but instead of dropping
down on the back glass. This one keeps on going foward. It is about the same size
as yours but this one just broke towards the front of the car instead of going down.
Has you ever seen one or know anybody who has one?
