Default Rear spoiler

Hey Guys and Gals. Anyone out there purchase and install one of the painted rear spoilers that applies with 3M tape? How does it look? Are you pleased with it. Have a black 02 vert and am considering ordering one from Mid America and putting it on my "baby". Thoughts? Thanks all and Happy Holidays

We've sold a bunch of these pre-painted SLP spoilers. They hold on great and we've only had positive response from them.

Put one on about 5 months ago and the paint match was excellent and the fit was fine. Bought from RPI excellent price and product.

Got mine from RPI, couldn't be happier. Exactly what I expected, maybe even more considering the PERFECT match with the AE paint.

SLP here, I believe it came from RPI, I bought it 2nd hand. Like it, My fit wasn't too good and had to pay my local body shop 50 bucks to remount it for me, Pewter in color and matched my car very close, A tint of yellow in it that you have to look close to see it.

Got mine from my Laundry room, it came painted and ready to install right out of the box. Now for the important info:

Cost: $20
Install Time: 10 seconds
WOW factor: Off the charts!!! Been burning this candle for 4 years now and it still gets a giggle!

Seriously though...If you're gonna get a stick on spoiler, The Carravagio is my favorite (that is, if you care about MY opinion )

Got mine from RPI & its a great piece. Installed it while living in Houston, now living in Illinois & the fit is still perfect. I used a hair dryer even in summer time in Houston to get the exact fit I wanted. If u decide to pull the trigger make sure you have it warm enough during the winter. Also, a extra pair of hands helps.

I'm considering a rear spoiler for my C5 coupe, either the ACI or the Caravaggio. Anyone out there with either one of these have a fitting problem?
