V-Style spoiler in Carbon Fiber (not oem lip spoiler!)

Racing Solution is producing the V-style TR who? style spoiler in carbon fiber. I figured I'd post this up since it was just buried in the exclusive sales section. I have already ordered this spoiler and will post up pics when I get it. What do you guys think?

Description:
This RS1 carbon fiber trunk spoiler sits flush with your trunk and gives your Scion tC a sporty look. The spoiler is made of fiberglass material wrapped in Grade A carbon fiber material.

The RS1 spoiler installs using double sided tape. The double sided tape is included. We recommend a body shop perform all installations.

In stock. Ships in 2-3 business days

I like the look a lot and am considering it but it's a bit pricey.

I like it, but I also like my OEM lip spoiler. I see it uses double sided tape. That means I'd have to get the holes filled from where the OEM was.

But what if water gets under it? Are the edges sealed like on the OEM?

u could always use silicone on the underside of the wing to waterproof it

its a more affordable solution to water

Dave, does that really work?

I'm planning to get rid of my pedestal spoiler and I don't want
to take my car to a body shop to deal with the holes left
by the dealer when they installed it.

And you're talking about silicone from like, Home Depot right?

I plan on getting a V-style spoiler too so it's going to cover the holes
and the silicone I suppose.

i dont see why not. silicone is used as a sealant. so if u use the double stick tape provided and then put a silicone seal on the underside (continuously) then i dont see any water gettin in.

Why didn't I think of that in the first place...

Well, looks like I'll be selling my spoiler.

I'll let you guys know how that silicone/tape holds up.

This bundled with the RS1 front lip in fiberglass would be sweet :D

What a rip off. Go to Viniati website and you'll find an exact same spoiler for much cheaper, unless the link sells painted spoiler.

from viniati's site: The spoiler is made with light weight composite material and surfaced in smooth gel coat.

from racingsolution: The spoiler is made of fiberglass material wrapped in Grade A carbon fiber material.

so the more expensive one is not entirely made of carbon fibre, just wrapped in it....
