Sorry I didnt even realized my finger was there until you had pointed out.But I will try to post more pics tonight. This spoiler is great cause it does not obstruct the rear view vision at all,cause I cant even see it when I look into my rear view mirror.

Can anyone tell that the spoiler is off to one side more than the other?

I can tell when comparing all the pictures, but ever so slightly. Looking at them individually not at all. I wouldnt worry about it, it sounds like its barely off I wouldnt sweat it. My shark fin anenna mount is slghtly canted to one side.

hey fellas, come out and have this done

Quote:
The Austin Police Department's Auto Theft Interdiction Unit and the Region 2 District Representatives will be providing free VIN etching on vehicles on Thursday, October 25, 2012 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Walmart Northwood, 1030 Norwood Park Blvd.

The Austin Police Department, through the Auto Theft Interdiction Project, provides free VIN number etching for your vehicle. The etching is a permanent theft deterrent device applied to all the windows of your vehicle, and may result in a reduction in automobile insurance.

When the VIN number etchings are applied, thieves will see the etched windows and think twice about stealing your vehicle. As a result of the etching, thieves will have to replace every piece of glass on your vehicle before illegally selling it. This costs the thieves extra time and money, enough to make them move on to easier targets.
I'll take early lunch to go have this done, I like free stuff and hate car thieves

I've actually been looking at these. I'm going back and forth between the fivead and carsmo. When I last looked at the Carsmo, they mentioned that these weren't yet "production" models and were going to make some adjustments to make it fill the trunk lid a bit better. Do you know if they've completed that and are shipping the "production" version? Also, did yours come painted?

Looks great!

They are finish with making all the adjustments and the one on my car is the production model. Very light but be extra careful when you put it on. Get a second set of hands.cause I try doing this myself and once it is on there it was not possible to pull it off. That is some tough tape. I got in one the group buy and was able to get it painted. I am not sure if they found a new paint shop yet because they were having delays with the old one. So you might have to wait a bit if you wanted painted by them.

Hey Austin, look for me in my asphalt FR-S around town. You'll most likely see me around south Austin, or sitting in mopac traffic everyday.

Picked her up in Oklahoma on Saturday, drove back down today. Should hit 1000mi within the next 2 weeks.

I'm in love already
