Default Wald replica spoiler fitment.

Could Members who have installed the Wald replica rear spoiler please let me know how the fitment and quality is?
From what I seen online the real Wald has some minor fitment issues also so I figured if I need bodywork done on either one I might as well go with the replica...

Thanks for any advice and pics you post!

fitment has issues.......orig is easier to work with because its fiberglass.... replica is abs plastic...im sure if your body shop put some time into working with the replica one it can come out ok.....




with no modifications to the replica - I can tell you the surface is wavy, doesn't line up to bottom of trunk near chrome garnish and I heard its harder to paint.

Thanks for the info, really appreciate it!


I would like a few other members to confirm that they too had bad fitment and overall bad quality??
