This is a $400 spoiler that you can buy from dealer



It has 9 attaching points to the trunk. 3 of them are bolts and 6 of them are clips.
Also comes with a paper map that helps you drill the holes properly in the trunk.


This is a $100 spoiler that you get on Ebay or anywhere else.



Has 7 attaching points......only 3 are usable (same 3 that are bolted down on the dealers spoiler)

Led light is a little bit shorter but contains more LEDs. Back portion of the spoiler (the part where the LED light is) shaped a little different.

no

the main difference is the attaching points.


The real spoiler has 9 attaching points, 3 of them are bolts and 6 are clips

the other spoiler has 7 attaching points but only 3 of them are usable. You cannot use other 4 without destroying your trunk lid. But you can always use industrial grade double sided tape to hold it in place.

they all have been good replicas, ive always bought the ones without the brake light except for the g35 one. The only thing I dont like about replica oem spoilers is that they dont really match the oem led brake lights but i bought it anyways cuz i deleted the brake light from my 06 style spoiler.
