I recently bought an ATLP "CSL" spoiler from Heeltoeauto, I'm very glad they were able to reproduce this item. I'm posting some pics of it, I know they're not the best quality pics =(. But I'll post more as soon as I get it back from the body shop and installed.
Definitely would like to see a few pics with it on your car. I bought one some years ago and I did not like it, but the one you show here seem a lot nicer! Will be looking forward to the pictures!
I'm hoping to get it back from the shop by early next week, I sent it for painting yesterday, and I will be updating progress. I did look at a few pics from earlier CSL spoilers and they look a bit smaller in height than ATLP's reproduction CSL.
Your CSL looks nice, I was looking at your threads, btw I like how you did those type-s Depo tails with the black bezel, looks pretty sweet. And thanks man

Yes! Look at the picture Marcus posted ^^^ (Mrheeltoe)
Looking forward to pics!
I'd recommend using construction strength polyurethane adhesive in addition to the double sided tape. You can buy it for 6 bucks at any hardware store. I had my roof spoiler stolen very easily with just the tape and silicone RTV. Now my current spoiler has the adhesive and that sucker isn't coming off!

That's a great idea, but sadly, if they really want your shit, they're gonna tear it off your car, regardless.

well yea nothing is theft proof. but a guy can tear off a taped spoiler in 10 sec while the polyurethane is going to take a lot longer than that...enough that you hope someone will see them and stop them or make them run away.
my roof spoiler got stolen in a very busy outlet mall in the middle of the day. probably took a few seconds while they walked by since i was only in the store for less than 10 minutes
Crap lol, Sounds like I need to visit Home Depot 1st

Well, if it's any consolation, my original roof visor, I did a bunch of window weld in addition to the double sided tape and upon removal, the double sided tape was what was holding it strong. The glass isn't porous, so the weld doesn't hold it hard.
Just saying...it's a fact of life, just have to try and avoid theft.
There's only so much you can do. But sounds like a little extra double sided tape should be good.

I've considered this spoiler, really looking forward to seeing it installed. I need my front bumper repainted so I figured I'd get the bumper and spoiler done at the same time. Love that spoiler!
I don't beleive the KB1 spec has threaded holes either.
It looks like from the little research I've done, the Heeltoe ATLP is a little bigger and more pronounced than the KB1spec. They seem to have two versions, the CSL and then another decklid. The other one has two little spoilers that would attach to the rear quarter panels, making it look like one big CSL spoiler when its really two small ones on each side and the main decklid. I really like the way it looks, and it comes in two different CF pattersn (1x1 and 2x2). Since it looks bigger, I wonder if it would cover the holes left by a Type-S spoiler? I've all but confirmed the KB1spec will not.
Quan, I don't think that one is the one you want.
Yeah, according to Marcus, the K1B is a little smaller and no, it didn't come with the threaded holes.
K1B's was based off of the TL concept Aspec and I think his is based off the German originator of the look!
I honestly really like both, but more so the CSL style one especially if its beefier than the KB1spec and if it covers the bolt holes from the Type-S spoiler.
Maybe marcus can chime in since he's installed both on that MRP which should have had Type-S spoiler to begin with
