What I mean is, the paint in the spoiler although the same color as the car, comes from a different batch.
Here's your pic of the IP with the oem spoiler. I just got the car 2 months ago and i love it. the spoiler just adds to the good looks.

It's an easy install if you have some basic skills, don't rush, and have a extra set of hands there to help you. A fresh "uni-bit" is a must, as you have some fairly good size holes to drill. I found that actually undersizing the holes A HAIR lends towards a tighter/better fit and that you should back off heavy pressure on the drilling part, as the trunk lid is thin and could easily dent. Making sure the deck is clean is very important so that the adhesive bonds well to the surface. Watch out that you make eavery effort to get all the drilling flash that falls down into the trunk area by spreading a sheet out and that you rust proof the holes after drilling. A good marine type anti-corrosion spray applied with a Q-tip is a good way. The kit (OEM, of course) comes with the painted spoiler, the two diffusers, and a templet....that's it ....NO support strut or such nonsense. You'll need the blue type of masking tape, some sort of quality anti-corrosion goop, a vaccum cleaner for the flash, a uni-bit (or good sharp drills), and a center punch (not too hard on the punch or you'll dent the trunk tough guy!). And, it's definately easier to jack up the car to mount the diffusers. It took me about an hour and a half taking my time and being careful. You can always have the dealer do it. We do it all the time and charge about $700.00 for the parts and labor. Thank you...JBX has left the forum
