06 Coupe Spoiler from Grubbs and Ebay

well, i order one from them and just got it this morning; overall it's pretty good. it came with instructions and t-strips for installation. the spoiler is made by www.dallasautomotiverestyling.com. i then did some searching on ebay for comparison and came across this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/PAINT...spagenameZWDVW
i read the description and they have the exact same installation instructions as the one that came with my spoiler; word to word. also the warranty is three years for both. so i'm positive that the one on ebay is from the same place that Grubbs get theirs from. if for those of you that are buying an 06 spoiler i would suggest getting the one on ebay because it is about $80 cheaper!

i find that oem style spoiler are often made by a few sources. Dealers buys from the same places that other vendors do so you're better off saving money.

For anyone interested I used these guys for my 06 spoiler and mounted it on my 04. It came painted and damn good match on color. Had it installed by a local body shop. Painted and shipped 214.00 and then 75 more at the body shop to install.

From the FAQ on that link. Yes. came with brake light and some info below.
I'll try an attachment with my pics below for a look see.

Does it come with a brake light?
If the description for the spoiler says "with light" then the spoiler comes with a third brake light. If it does not say it has a light then is does not have a third brake light.

Will it look like the factory spoilers?
Factory and OEM matching style spoilers look just like the spoiler you would get from the factory. The only difference is that at the factory the car manufacturer will remove the third brake light out of the back window if the spoiler has a third brake light built into it.

What is your Warranty cover?
We offer a lifetime manufacturer warrranty on the product itself including the DOT Approved LED light. We have a 3 year warranty on the paint which does not include normal wear and tear.

Yup, put 10 G owners in a room and they will never agree on a spoiler. First you have to separate those from the group that don't want a spoiler.

Half will make a comment that they don't like the 06 for what ever reason like stated in the post above, it looks like an Altima. The other group will say the 03-05 spoiler looks like an ironing board or picnic table.

It's like putting democrats and republicans in a room and trying to get them to agree.

I couldnt really tell by the pictures. On the 06 OEM spoiler the brake light has a section on the spoiler that looks like it is a separate piece (there are two vertical line all the way to the bottom of the spoiler on each side of the lens), don't really know how to describe it. The aftermarket ones that I have seen the spoiler is all one piece with the brake light inserted in the middle of it. Does the elite spoiler look exactly like the oem one?

Strange but I have never looked at the OEM up close and personal, I had only seen some cars driving on the highway or something.

Sorry, not clear at all what you are saying about the lines to the bottom.
I did ask Elite about the LED and the warranty. I was told they (LED) are removable.

I just looked and there are no seams. Just a rectangle cut out of the spoiler that the lens fits into.

^ I couldn't have said this better myself bro! When I saw the first person making a comment on the tail rather than discussing where to purchase them, or which vendor is better etc, (basically adding to the MAIN focus of the discussion) I just had to roll my eyes. But instead of throwing a bad comment out about it, you NAILED it 100%

Thanks Guys!
