Installation was a pain in the butt. Fitment wasn't perfect, but they say professional installation is "required", so I'm not complaining. The only thing that I did wrong was make a mess with the silicone when I sealed the gaps. Any tips on getting silicone off of paint? Right now the pollen clings to it, and it's pretty noticeable..

looks good, i've always like their design

but yea the whole "hard to install" / "not perfect fitment" issues...CC, Duraflex, Extreme Dimension...their all the same so all their products would have this problem.

I've been waiting for someone to buy and install that spoiler for months! .... does it look pretty different in terms of shape than then OEM one? It looks like it has a smaller profile..

Install aside, would you recommend getting it?

I love it! It's much more sleek that the stock spoiler, and it really flows well with the lines of the car. I've gotten tons of compliments about my car since I've gotten it installed. I haven't removed the excess silicone, so it still feels kind of incomplete to me, but it is such a hassle to get it off and nobody else has noticed. I also don't think I would like it if I didn't have the carbon fiber hood to match. But then again duraflex sells one that isn't carbon fiber anyway.

It's not a carbon fiber decal, it is clear coat over the actual carbon fiber. If you want the hood to be the stock color you just sand off the clear coat and have it painted to match your factory paint

Not one single piece laid flush on the car, the only reason I was able to make it look flush is because I used 3M tape and had to remove it and re-apply each piece a couple of times. I bought it on amazon from the seller carbonfiberhoods.com
