Autoform rear deck "wedgie" spoiler

While my car is waiting to go to the body shop my spoiler was delivered

Shipping and Packaging ...Shipped thru Bax and there were a few issues which were not handled well but it was eventually delivered...Packaging was excellent and it was delivered in a cofin like box

Quality .. initial inspection revealed multiple scratches in the clear coat(i'm a bit of a perfectionist)...However these were easily removed with a hand application of meguiars polish and the spoiler looks awesome now...it matches the stock paint to a tee

Installation .. had a few glitches here. Each side of the spoiler uses two brackets .. the two small brackets are side specific which i did not initially realize(was not included in the instructions). Once if figured this out and how to properly use a rivet gun the install was a breeze...After putting one of these on i could do another install in 30 minutes easy...Removal and re-installation is also now a breeze

Appeal.. i definitely like the look .. from the front of the car it makes the front look lower..from the back it gives the car a coupe like appearance... from the side it does have a bit of wedgie appearance but still pleasing

Customer service..OUTSTANDING.. i had a chance to speak with steve on 2 instances via phone..very pleasant and informative...

Overall.. highly recommend this product

Steve has been very helpful and is very accessible. I usually deal with him directly on my purchases. Can't wait to see pics of the spoiler...

Its a good looking rear spoiler, but being able to see the attachment brackets isnt too flattering.

I have never seen that roll bar before - is that custom built?
It is the original Autoform rollbar. The roof and rear spoiler (and side splitters) are Autoform as well.

My spoiler brackets are not very noticeable. I will need to take a look but I do not notice them overall.

The spoiler on the car owned by "gra_asp" just fits better .... if u look where it meets the center tailight it fits lower... i've tried to get mine to fit like his but it just won't fit that way......With the brackets off i've tried rotating it, pushing on the middle but it just doesn't fit as well as his no matter what i do....

Mine also rubs against the rear deck on the far left side no matter how i tweak it.....metal on metal

I see what you are talking about. This one clearly sits lower. Very hard to see the brackets.

wow that is a very timely post ... autoform sent me a new spoiler after i sent them the old one back and they agreed it did not fit 100% correctly... the new one arrived yesterday...BUT my car is stuck in the body shop waiting on parts so i have not had the opportunity to fit the new one

can you get the autoform top without the extra little "window in te back "pillar", like it seems in a couple of these pics? The only one I see for sale has the extra opening, and I don't like the way it looks.
