Mine arrived today. It only came with the mounting bolts. Do you need to use 3m double sided tape to keep it from rattling or anything?

When I got mine, the bolts and 3M pad were loose in the box. If you still have it, might be worth a second look as I found mine tucked under a box flap.

Any plans on making one the same spec as the real one? I actually like the middle piece and the fact it uses the Sport spoiler mounting holes. There is a market for a direct 100% replica you know. ;)

Edit. No there is not. :(

I totally would want that too! I think there's a market for it for people who want to do the miso conversion and not want to pay $2k+ for oem

So when installing it, you would use 3M double sided tape to cover the whole base though right? Or just slap it on the hatch and bolt down?

I just took the plunge and bought it as the price was right. $500 vs $2000+ No brainer really. It arrivevd the other day! I Hope it looks good with the Nismo kit.

Here is a quick Iphone pic. Just installed the Evo R wing today. What a PITA taking the old wing off. Not super impressed with the quality of this wing. But it still looks awesome, and gives the car a much different look.

Why don't you like the quality of the spoiler? Is it noticeably cheap?

Its not obvious unless you really look at it. But there are indentations near the center of the wing on the bottom portion where the molds met. It required a lot of sanding, and that part in the center could not be sanded out....It doesnt look horrible or anything, just could be better.

Did you do the install yourself?

Did you use double sided tape on the base where it attaches to the hatch?

Does it require to be assembled (top part) before it gets installed on the hatch?
