Domi, there are only 2 roof spoilers that I know of, well 3, but the one Zorro has, I don't remember where she got it.
Anyway, the green tib with the chopped CF body parts has an old SR roof spoiler.
Like on the Speedstate site:

The other roof spoiler is the ATH one, which you need to drill / bolt onto your hatch, where the old SR one is double sided taped onto your rear glass

Now, which one do you think it looks more like? smile.gif
And this is the only pic I can find of Zorro's roof spoiler
And I know she had to drill it onto her rear hatch too. The Green one above sits on the glass

The ones that sit on the glass are plastic, and fall off ALL the time.
That's why I got rid of mine.

You know what, peeps keep saying that, and I was SOOOOOOO paranoid about that.
But mine held!
I TOOK it off this past winter, and still haven't put it on yet, but it did give me a fight when I took it off.
I went though 1 winter with it (-30ish degree celcius weather) then the next summer took it on a road trip, (without taking it off for that same winter) and it was WET! Damn thing, I saw like only 2 days of sun on the week long trip. :angry:
Anyway, yeah, it held TIGHT until I TOOK it off last winter.
I think it's the tape that you use.
I used the good ol' 3M stuff.
No problems.

I've got a ATH one that's going on shortly. DIY will be coming. That thing is HIGH quality.
Chris, how did you mount yours?
