Well I decided to bite the bullet and buy one painted NFR so we will see. I will let you guys know how it turns out.

You just message him your paint code and he should be able to do it.

So. It came today!


As you can see, this is not LBP. More of a royal blue. I put it on the cart tonight as a quick test and in the dark it was very noticeable to be off on the color. This fit seemed to be good but the color is off. I'll check it out in the sun soon to see how it looks, if it looks bad, I'll probably get it painted the correct LBP.

Edit:


Gonna get it painted again.

Got mine, and I would say the color is 9/10 looking at it in my garage, and it looks pretty good to me. I have yet to look at it outside and compare it. Keep in mind the paint on my car is 11 years old. As far as fitment, I'd say 10/10, and the holes even look like they line up, however i'm going to just go the automotive 3M route, in case I decide to remove it later.

Color looks off in this picture, but it really was just the angle and the light...you'll see in the next pictures.

Even if the color is a tad darker, it's too be expected considering the age of the original paint on the car. I'm pretty satisfied...

For everyone that used the provided 3M automotive tape, did you guys just clean the surface well with the prep pads and stick on, or did you use that included 3M K520 adhesive promotor also? I read somewhere that it might not be good for the paint and clear coat.

I forgot the package at home - I just washed it with soap and water and stuck it on with the tape given, has been fine ever since; so you probably won't need the promoter

Awesome! How long have you had the spoiler installed so far?
