Yeah I have that first one on my car. I got a good deal on it back when there weren't many sellers. After a while though I did have to use some rubber cement to stick it back down on the corners because pollen loosened up the tape's bond somehow.... Stupid spring time.

But other than that the fitment is pretty good

 

it fits and looks great! much better than origin IMO. i paid $99 shipped since i bought it through HIC-USA directly.

 

Hmmm. One of them wants $100 to ship to Canada. The other one won't ship to Canada. I guess I'll pass.

 

what is this ^^^? I though your car was black?

That does look great though, I might have to put the engine/trans build on hold for a while and get some cosmetics done.

 

im also debating on getting one. i just dont know which one to get i wish i can see them in person.

my question is who makes this one?? ive done some research and it seems like only one person on this forum has it, but got it off of yahoo japan.

 

I like the first one.
And now it's on its way.

 

Original makers were HIC.. i saw one on ebay and i knew it was gonna be sold quick so i bought it. Sent me the wrong one contacted them and they sent another one right away. Good customer service. The fitment on mine was nearly perfect except that one of edges do not fit.. Maybe i put it on wrong?

 

not anymore

IIRC "cool's japan" was the brand. in all my years browsing YAJ, ive never seen one for sale, which is why i ended up going with origin and then the hic one. the cool's japan is the cleanest by far.

 

I guess I'll be the voice of dissent today ... I don't like either of them. My reasons for not biting are as follows:

1) Too small. I want something that is functional while making the car loog good as well. These shades are too small to help keep the rear deck cool.

2) Both shades appear to be made of that same cheap-looking acylic that those side window shades are made of. IMHO it cheapens the look of the vehicle.

3) Along with 2) above the lack of color choices is a detractor.


IMHO these are just glorified $100+ side shades. If they sold them so that they came in OEM colors (Like my DWP) and were deeper (protected the rear deck more) I would probably buy.


... just my opinion.

 

I have a 2 year old that hates sun in his face, and this shade actually takes the edge off of him when he's in the back seat......so it doesn't help the deck, but it gives some love to the back seat sometimes!!
I guess the other side of the coin is that if you have window visors, the spoiler matches them pretty close, kinda tying them all together.

 

isnt that fenderrub's car on the first ebay link?

 

I think I'm getting one, I removed my origin roof spoiler because it didn't flow with the car so it's now sitting in my attic gathering dust. It was also $50 more than this thing costs.

 

Base on the pictures, I think both of them are the same.
the 2nd one is my car LOL!! my friend cut me a deal because I let him take pics

 

thats what i said! hope he's the one selling them lol

 

I just bought one. I'll take some pics when it's installed.
