I just installed my new spoiler. It looks great. It was pretty easy and just a little stressful. The finished product looks great. The key is to not be afraid to back the tape away from the edge. I wish I had it all to do over again. I learned some things that I would do differently. To anyone thinking about getting one. Don't be afraid. Just Do It!

Vette Girl,

A little clarification on "back the tape away from the edge" please.

You have to first upload your pictures to photobucket.com and after you do that all you have to do is copy the img address into your post, Very simple.
