Default JUN Roof Spoiler Installation Question.

Are you supposed to put it on right against the roof? Or are you supposed to leave that little gap for water drainage and put it on only on the glass? People that have the JUN roof spoiler should know exactly what I'm asking about. I'm just a little confused on which way to install it. Thanks a lot.

i installed mine today. I left a little gap. As long as the gap is nice and even with the roof of the car it will look fine.

I just installed my today and I notice an right bottom tape don't stick to the back windshield because the spoiler don't sit flush at where the gap are. Its like three inches.
My question is, while it peel in the long run? Thanks in advance.

Mine was flush with the window. Did you try pressing from the middle first when applying? The tape doesn't leave much room for error.
