Default The Milezauto Spoiler!! (Done!)

I am super impressed with the quality of Milez' product, the thing is completely smooth and ready for painting, he also offers painting I believe. It's light wieght and seems pretty durable as well. The shipping method was also top notch with bubble wrap around it and an airbag too! I thank you Milez for making such a wonderful and unique product for us xA owners. More pics to come later.














Finally mounted and DONE! I'm gona go take some nicer pix on Sat with my buddies

I was waiting for the weather to clear and I've still gotta paint the thing.... I really dont think it was windy enough to do this last night, so there's someone out there asking for a beating.

just a thought... that 3m tape kinda gives way after a few wet months. See if you can get some wirths or any German body glue... I've just got a feeling those two screws supplied may not be enough at that location.

I dont think the tape is even completely necessary for the instal, it's more of a padding.. I did a test fit on a friend's xA last night and the thing fits like a glove on the back. I'll have more details when I get it painted, I'm fairly certain that the tape is also hidden from getting wet when you mount it.

Default spoiler

Mine is only attached by the top two screws. The spoiler is plently strong enough for that. Just don't use it for a picnic table I've put probably 3000 + miles on mine so far and it's strong and tight. Actually weather-strip tape would probably be better but I'm going to leave that up to the individual.

Pysco565, glad you are happy with it. Can't wait to see it painted and installed.

Alrighty, I've done the test fit, pics in the first post. Now it's time to paint the thing, sometime this week should the weather hold. :D

where can I get the spoiler? The only thing that would be sweet if the hardware was covered, like caps to cover.

I've actually got some little caps I had laying around, they're gonna be the perfect cover. You can get the spoiler through Milezauto ... the guy in the post above, send him a pm or something.

can you get some c/u shots of the back, how far it sticks out to the sides? I'm interested in getting this spoiler, but I don't have the money to buy a bunch of dif ones.

stop by the SE show this Sat, I should have it buffed and mounted then, if not I can bring it along for you to see. Otherwise, the pictures should be up monday after I have time to go take some tasteful shots.

alrighty, thats ok cause the weather keeps setting the schedule back, it's too damned cold to paint the thing... wish I had a paint booth. It will be getting primered tomarrow I hope, after sanding, then paint sunday I hope. Or I'll just get PO'd enough in a week and take it somewhere and see if I can rent a booth or somethin.

It looks cool, looks like it comes off the body about .5-.75 inch to the sides.
