I just received my m3 style trunk spoiler from xenonspecialist. I ordered the PWP one but when I placed it over my car the color doesn't match. The spoiler is actually more white than my car color. Did anyone else have this problem?

I know it's not because my car color is faded or anything because I also placed on a 2006 PWP RSX-S (a brand new car just purchased from the dealership) and it still doesn't match - again the the spoiler is whiter than the car color. I heard others on here said that it was a perfect match.

 

sorry to hear that but install of asking us! you should be talking to xenonspecialist. I also bought my spoiler from them but didnt had a problem at all.

 

I wouldn't be surprised if it was just a bit lighter/whiter. My spoiler from xenonspecialist in carbon gray pearl was almost perfect. However, only one person other than myself was able to tell a difference (just a tad lighter). Almost everyone else thinks that it was a factory part.

I can't speak for others, but i am pleased with the color matching given it was done by a third party.

 

Lion-O check out this thread link below, there was some discussion on the PWP color. They mentioned the RSX white is a different white than the TSX and polishing your PWP will make it look whiter.

I have the spoiler in black and it matches nicely, just haven't installed it yet. I am waiting for the warmer weather.

 

My ABP was a perfect match from that seller.

 

come again ?

 

I got mine from xenonspecialist too...CG, perfect color. You might want to check with him or actual TSX PWP color.

 

I got a CG spoiler last fall from the same seller and the match was nearly perfect. My car is a late 2004 so it was only 13 months old. No problem with fading, etc.
Sounds like white may be harder to match.

 

hahaha oops! instand of*

 

give it one more try

 

that JDM whore guy should teach you typing or spelling instead of bickering with you

 

PWP changes color from different amounts of sun exposure over time from what I heard. If not, then I'll just shut up =)

 

sorry! English isnt my first language... give me a break!

 

Would you guys mind taking a couple pics of how your spoiler looks (closer up pics preferred). Thanks in advance.

 

I'm thinking about getting a spoiler from xenonspecialist, but I'm concerned about the adhesion. I take my car to a laserwash during the winter, and I'm afraid the wash might loosen the spoiler. Good quality automotive tape should hold it on, but I'm not sure.

Anyone with an M3-style from xenonspecialist take their car through touchless washes? Any opinions?

 

The tape on xenonspecialist's spoilers is really tough stuff. Although i haven't been through a touchless washer with the spoiler on yet, i highly doubt the process will loosen the tape.

 

been through several times (I get lazy). does not budge and stays put.

 

 

they are everywhere.

 

My When I received the spoiler from them for my SS color, the spoiler color was also a bit different / brighter than the car color. But I installed it anyway. Now the color matches..... I guess you just gotta let it seat in the sun to blend in????

 

hahaha sun isnt going to magically blend paint.

 

.... gotta help a brotha out to convince him to put the cool looking spoiler on the car....

 

 

 

What's the spoiler made out of?

 

The white is a very hard color to match. My cousin's white TL has OBVIOUS color differences even between the bumpers and the body. So maybe compare the spoiler to your bumper. That should be a closer match.
