Hosh, how did the spoiler come out after all was said and done? Thumbs up, thumbs down, so-so? Would you recommend it to others?

Re: Replica Nismo Bumper & Impul Spoiler *pics*

well...I've been told that the real Impul rested flat on the trunk and had a gap between the middle piece and the side pieces. I saw a post on here from someone (can't remember the user), but what he did was pull it back (further from the window) so that the middle piece extended more on the edges, closer to the side pieces. That was the way I decided to mount mine (for now) because I didn't like that gap. But...since the replica is made out of fiberglass and not urethane like the original, it's not flexible, so upclose...you can see that the continuity doesn't match exactly from the middle pieces to the side pieces...but unless you're standing above it...you can't tell. It's taped on with 3M tape, so it's something I can adjust if I choose to do so...all in all I like it...I would be a little upset though if it was bolted on and I didn't have the option to change it in the future.

How did you take off the letters? I mean the easiest way without scratching, or leaving a residue?

Hair dryer and fishing line, then goo-gone, no stains to scrathes...take your time when doing it though.
