Advice for Stillen spoiler install?
 
I have the Stillen rear spoiler, which I love. Its simple and clean, what I don't like is how it attaches, or rather how I was told it was suppose to. Currently it is held on by 3M double sided tape, and it doesn't sit or look right. Its been on this way for about a year but I want a better soloution. It is really bothering me, the tape actually is somewhat visible. Is there any kind of adhesive that is safe for paint that anyone knows about? Like a caulking or anything like that. There are no mounting points on the spoiler itself, and I have a base model spoilerless hatch. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys

If u can create some mounting points on the spoiler I would screw it down asap. I installed a spoiler on my roadster a couple weeks ago. 4 holes and no leaks so far.

Hi There,

I hope I can offer some assistance for you. Unfortunately though I can't see the picture in your original post, it just shows up as a broken image icon. If you can shoot me an email with the picture I'll be able to offer a more detailed answer.

If your concern is in regards to the tape sticking, you don't need to worry about that. The 3M double side tape we supply with our urethane is EXTREMELY strong. If properly prepped and applied, you will not have any issues with the part(s) coming off. I've used that tape to hold body parts on to off road trucks, rally cars, race cars, and daily driven street vehicles for YEARS and we only ever see an issue when either side is not properly prepped.

Please send me an email with some pictures to kmillen@stillen.com and I'd be happy to review the install for you.

Thanks!

Kyle
