Ebay Lip Spoiler current referral..
Most of the search threads were a bit old on this topic...looking to get a lip spoiler for an 05, there are about 3-4 sellers on EBay right around $70 for a painted one..
A few are from Taiwan and one local...anyone buy from a specific one with a good experience, they all look the same, but I'd rather go with a previous experience here..thanks

in the 24th and a half...
I love my rburns6153 spoiler...unfortunately he's no longer on e-bay. However, I'm finding indications that he's doing business as "The Spoiler and Wing King". The prodict looks like mine, so why don't you e-mail him a question is he was "rburns6153@aol.com" on e-bay?
Here's a link to my page with some shots (now over 2 years old, but the spoiler is still perfect, even in Texas heat) and the busines page. Note my link will die soon as geocities is going away.

Someone requested a picture of my lip spoiler privately so I decided to post it publicly in hopes that it might help someone out. This lip spoiler is from xenonspecialist.
Now I don't know if I installed it properly, but I know I was competent enough to install it the way I wanted. The lip spoiler doesn't seem to "fit" the trunk. If you look at the pictures you might see what I'm talking about.
Here are the pictures of the left and right side of the lip:
As you can see, it is not flush with the trunk. The trunk is a little "roundness" in the end, am I right? If I wanted to make the lip flush with the trunk, the lip would have to go in a straight line. That means that the lip would not follow the curve of the edge of the trunk. I laid the lip straight like that and it just didn't seem right to me, so I maneuvered the lip any way I can to go along with the curve. But then if I wanted to go with the curve, the end points of the lip would be more off, meaning it would look crooked at the end points. So in this picture, you can see that I tried to bend the lip a little bit to make it look sort of flush, so you'll notice the slight bend.
Now don't take all my word for it. I probably did this all wrong, who knows. But I did it in a way that I like so I'm not regretful on the installation. I really like how it looks and it is perfect how I want it. If someone installed theirs different, please help the others so the might not make the same "mistake" that I did, although I don't think I made any.
Here are other pics, enjoy:

^^ No, it's tape. You basically peal and stick. Just clean the surface first - get the wax off, etc. Getting it on straight is the hardest part.
It's about a 15 min job...

Thanks! I've caught up with the other thread where I painted them - posted an update.

in the 24th and a half...
Best mounting trick is using masking tape, stick lightly on back edge of spoiler and on top edge of trunk above A...measure a couple of times and mark the center of both (it'll be over the A, but it don't hurt to check) the trunk and the spoiler. Then use a knife to nick the paper over the attaching tape and pull a couple of inches off in both directions from the middle...line up the two marks while hovering over to get the front/back alignment correct, and press down when happy. The work one side at a time to the edge...
