Got my new rear window spoiler in today

My first visual mod on this car since i got it last year.. Paid $90 for this on ebay and i think it came out great. Perfect fitment and the finish is pretty close to the NBP... my lip spoiler is coming this friday so hopefully both spoilers will nicely compliment each other and finish off the rear end for now.. please excuse the dirty car and swirl marks ill be getting it fully detailed next month though

of course it looks too big, you have the smallest roof spoiler ever made

I like the HIC roof spoiler.
The lines remind my of the sarona one, but the size of ATLP.
It's like a hybrid.

Roof spoiler looks good!! Now you gotta get window visors and a trunk lid lip, and your good to go, I'll be ordering this soon enough

Is it just me? It looks way too black? NBP has a hint of blue in it. It doesn't seem like a match?

Hmmm...will need to see it with the rest of the car in a pic?

But, if it makes you happy, that's all that matters!

LOL yeah apparently... actually i bought this car off my brother in law after they got a lexus rx since they had a kid on the way.. hes not into cars at all so i assume he or whoever washed the car used a regular towel or something

i use nothing but microfiber towels but its already too late the damage is already done.. but i do have a good shop lined up to get my full detail done next month

yeah its much bigger than those lip type roof spoilers.. i didnt want to pay the same money on such a small one, i feel like 90% of the general public wont even notice those other ones ive seen.. its no where near as big or obnoxious as the wrx hatch spoilers, the close ups were to show the fitment.. its pretty subtle from a distance

got a chance to wash the car today and took some pictures further away.. yeah i love the way it looks actually, its not too big where it looks out of place or awkward but not too small that you'll miss it.. everyone has their own preference i guess though

like i said my trunk lip spoiler should be coming this week so the roof spoiler shouldnt look so out of place once i get it installed

i believe its the same material as the window visors.. heres the description from the makers
The visor feature smoke color acrylic composite for greater durability and function. 100% lifetime color fade resistant guarantee. 3M industrial strength double sided tape. 100% fitment guarantee with no gaps. Custom molded to fit each application perfectly in both style and shape.
