Default Roof Spoiler Installed on 09 SGM

Well, I took a chance and ordered an ebay roof spoiler. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Paint...Q5fAccessories[/
I asked previously and no one had experience, so I thought I would share. It was the carking seller. This spoiler came directly from Tiawan. The seller had good communication and excellent shipping.

The product came pre-painted and set me back about $160+/- with shipping. I figured what could it hurt. To my delight I received a great product. The product is amazing for the price. The paint is above average and matches perfect! Here are the pics:





Profile shot:


Fitment for those that care. It fits nicely, right out to the edges of the window. There is a small gap, but that is to be expected. I was very pleased.


Well, there you go. I am very happy and I didn't have to deal with a body shop to get is painted.

yeah, better pics tomorrow in the sunlight. I installed this at 10pm this evening...

The car goes in for surgery on Monday. Rediculous valet backed the car into a wall:





While she is in the shop, gonna get the OEM rear spoiler installed, paint match the front grill surround, black chrome the emblems front and rear, possibly the exhaust tips, and possibly paint match the chrome door surrounds.

Also thinking about painting the rims a gunmetal or black chrome...... not sure yet.

Sorry to hear about the valet accident. I hope you found the body shop that you wanted.
