2012 GL SH-AWD 6MT Roof Spoiler and Splash Guards Installed

Installed the roof spoiler the other day and the splash guards yesterday. The roof spoiler was easy to install, the trick is to only pull the backing off of the tape a little at a time. Let me know what you all think!

I never install splash guard on my current and previous vehicles but have to admit it does not loot bad, so what else are you doing to your ride.

I like these since they are minimal and are painted. Also, the paint on my last TL started to wear away in the area behind the wheels due to rocks and road debris being kicked up. I figured it was a good investment on a new car. As far as future plans go, I only plan on getting the windows tinted.

Look great! Love that colour! If I had to chose which colour to buy again, I would pick this one over the white that I have.

Why? Several members have solely used the adhesive on the spoiler and have not reported any problems.
