Some can harp on EVO R (no offense to that company, never bought from them, just speaking out of observation)
But something like that, with who knows how long you've had it on, there's too much grey area to prove it's a quality issue.

I just hope this happened on a track and not a highway with other people.

I’m sorry but you were doing 150+, and you’re asking for a warranty on an ooopsie like that? Gtfo

Ive bought a steering wheel from EVO-R. I love the wheel, surprisingly good quality, but the customer service is nonexistent. Its one guy running the company in Thailand. So as far as warranty goes, good luck. Would just buy another spoiler and take the loss.

No Evo-R product has any kind of warranty. You should consider yourself lucky you got the product in the first place.


Also, stop driving like a ******* moron.

Before I agree with Chuck, I have one question. Were you on a track or on the street??

Slightly off topic; can someone explain to me why this is OP's fault. Obviously OP should slow down if this was on the streets regardless but say it was done on a track or similar legal like setup, shouldn't the spoiler of held up?

Correct me if im wrong but isn't a spoiler intended high speeds and as far as im concerned there isn't a "speed limit" on it. All this assuming installation was correct of course

It's a replica wing with no actual testing. I seriously doubt it was made to withstand those speeds and not surprised it didn't.
