I was shocked too when I looked at the higher res pics they still showed the wing fit like a glove...

That spoiler looks great. The fitment looks right on. I guess this is a good quality alternative to the JP spoiler

LOL...Now could you only imagine if Erebuni were to come out with a full JP knock-off kit that fits just as well as the spoiler appears to? Man would there be some pissed off people around here!!

Erebuni Tails, Erebuni Tails!!!!

With that price and fitment quality it is a great alternative for those that dont want to spend the $ on the JP spoiler. If they make a good quality kit then I think we will be seeing a lot of JP or JP like kits on CL

You know I was wondoring if it really is a flat out JP copy cuz comapnies like erubani probably don't know what the hell JP is and its not like there are hundreds of JP spoilers out there sold for them to know to copy it. I wondor if they just happen to make this style spoiler based on other car aftermarket spoilers or if it was their own design.

What are your thoughts?

I don't think its an absolute copy, the JP appears to have a bit more of an upward slope to the center section and the top surface of the center has a bit of concavity to it. But, still very close. If I recall correctly, the JP was $499 from Carson during the group buy.

TO me the two spoilers look extremely alike. The spacing from the taillight on the side, how it slopes down on the side. I think we should wait until the spoiler is fitted and painted so we can get a really good idea of the final products and how much they look alike. I think they are too similar for it not to be a copy by erebuni
