Message I posted questions about a new spoiler a week ago. I placed an order at Car-body-parts.com . I received it yesterday. It cost me $104.95 plus $20 shipping. I opened it up and was kinda shocked at the craftsmanship of it. It looked really nice, real smooth, no waves.

At a closer glance I noticed something weird. If you look at the pictures I took.... Link (56k Beware) you should notice it too.

The rear posts have the holes in the middle. I thought this was supposed to have OEM fitment.....

Anyway, I tried to test fit the front posts, maybe I can get away with just having to drill new holes in the back. WRONG!!!! It's about 1/2" short in the front. (Width) I loosely put one screw into the front left post. Then went to the right side and noticed the front right post to be touching the rear winsheild molding. Normally it's about 1/2" past the moulding. It's fiberglass it'll bend a little, so i gave a tug on it. It flexed a little but no where close to where it need to be.

So, if you have a NA and would like a 94+ turbo style spoiler I would reccomend this route since you don't have any holes in your hatch to begin with. For those of us with TT's, I don't think you would want to go this route. It's cheap, and I can't argue that. I guess you get what you pay for.....
