TOM's rear deck spoiler received.
OK so it's not yet installed, but I figure I would show the virgin spoiler compared to the OEM spoiler. Purchased through Carson which got it from Japan, it was on my door step when I got home.
Workmanship is OK as it will require some touching up and smoothing (sanding) to get it right. Some odd edges that require some love. One thing I was not too happy about is that it does not come with a gasket to be used in between the trunk and spoiler around the screws. I will have to check into reusing the old one or purchasing new ones.
I plan on painting it myself within the next few weeks. It is a bit longer than the stock spoiler which I do like as it comes across a bit more agressive. I will post more pics once it is completed.

Trunk Spoiler
Hey Lee !
I'am in the silicone gasket business ( aircraft )let me know what you need ?
I have some silicone 1/16 black material with a peel off adhesvive backing, fax me what you need 760-324-4539
I was thinking per tom's website that they had a carbon fiber mesh to this spoiler ?
