Default C5 rear spoiler
I'm looking for Informatin on the fit of the Caravaggio rear spoiler. Has there been fitment issues or does it fit like the ACI spoiler? Thanks for any Info.

Hey SoSol1,
I like that style spoiler. When you are looking down on the top of the spoiler, does the leading edge of the spolier go all the way to the hatch area. Or does it stop short of where the hatch would open?

Thank you,
Steve

There was a small imperfection in the Carravagio mold that would leave a small gap on the drivers side corner. This has been corrected and there are no other fitment issues. This spoiler fits like a glove.

PM me as we sell them painted and shipped

On the pre painted Caravaggio spoiler, how close is the paint match? I had planned on sending it to my paint shop, but they said it would be a crap shoot on color/metalic content match up since the fender and bumper are two shades as it is due to material differences

I've seen Johns car up close. His paint match is solid on his spoiler.
