Installed new carbon fiber front spoiler today...
 
Thanks to Tyler @ ATS.
I finally got around to installing this today.I was waiting for my buddy to paint a car in the booth so he could lay more clear over it in an attempt to help smooth out the slight imperfections in the gelcoat.

Here it is the day I received it...measures about 3/4" taller then stock:

No sun out today so it's kinda hard to pick up the weave real well:

that looks great John. That's what Scott did with his, sent it to Kurt at Autokraft for more clear and color-sanding/buffing. Made a huge difference.

Congrats!

Yea, color sanding and buffing makes it look way better.

I had one until I let Bret drive my car through the autocross.. lol.. now it's wall art. :_paranoid
