Anvil spoiler
Recently purchased a used fiberglass anvil spoiler and boy this spoiler does not fit like a 350 dollar spoiler should. Has anyone else had issues with theirs? I had one threaded post break off in the spoiler and it was off in matching the holes in the trunk lid. It needed quiet a bit of sanding to it as well. Will post some pictures when it is finished and installed.

Yes - I made the mistake of buying a "Primed and ready to paint" version directly from Anvil. It was far from ... ready to paint. Don't remember having any fitment issues though ...
IMO - It is worth it once all said and done. Best looking aftermarket spoiler if you ask me ;-)

Yeah I don't know what the deal was with the fitment issue, but it was definitely not fitting properly. I agree it is a really nice spoiler!

I have the Carbon version the finish on the spoiler was great . As for the alignment of the bolts with the holes in the trunk not so much . I had to elongate a few holes so that the spoiler would drop in correctly. Love the look of mine on the car . Get a lot of nice compliments on it .

Yeah I had one that the mount stud was bent at 40 degrees and they had me a new one in like two days second one had to elongate one hole but it was totally worth it.

anvil
Got it back from paint today. They did a great job with it. It will be worth it in the end.

All depends on whether they have any sitting on the shelf when you order it .
