Thank you.
I am too short to really be able to do it, so I had my man do it. TBH, it's better to have one person hold one side while the other installs it.
Thanks for the advice about having a friend help. I ordered mine today, and look forward to it coming.
I mistakenly started a thread not knowing this one was here. I just got this off e-bay and installed it. I'm very happy with the color match, but my first reaction was this it looked short (side gaps seem big). But in looking at others, it seems to be consistent. The spoiler is almost the width of the window (maybe 2-3mm short of the actual window width). I'm wondering if its because the spoiler is wider and light in color that the gaps seem more pronounced than on others. Looking for opinions....
What did the seller say? eBay parts won't be perfect!

They are ignoring me so far. It's from overseas too. I didn't spend a fortune on it so I'll either learn to like it or replace it. I may leave a comment noting it's true length to warn other buyers.
It does seem like there is more space than mine has (see post 9 & 11), but maybe it is because yours is larger and perhaps more noticeable.
That's what I'm trying to figure out. Problem is I'm a tad OCD so things like that tend to bother me more than others. I didn't expect it to be flush, but I don't want a buck-tooth on my window either.
Try using some color matched vinyl on those gaps. I'm sure it'll make it look much cleaner.
I was thinking that would be worth looking into. Do you know where I would shop for that kind of material? I have touch up paint and clearcoat, but wasn't sure about where to get paintable vinyl or if there was some kind of special product to look for. Is it as simple as Amazon?

Your car is silver, right?
Try going to a local vinyl/decal shop and get a small piece of generic silver. Won't cost much for the amount you need.
