Rear spoiler concern...
Seeing I just finished installing the kamanari kit I decided a rear spoiler would look good.
This is the one I want to get.Only concern is the mounting looks flimsy.2 or 3 screws doesnt seem adequate to keep it sturdy,perhaps when slamming back door too hard accidently? Anyone who has this I would really appreciate opinions. https://www.amazon.ca/Spec-D-Tuning-.../dp/B01DMSUSX0 P.S I did see this post,but it still seems as it would be flimsy even if you used a large washer on the inside with nut? http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34675 Last edited by Pinchlite; 07-26-2019 at 05:09 PM. |

abs plastic is kind of crappy, much better to get a factory urethane one or carbon fiber. i have the kaminari kit as well that i will be installing soon.

I've had no issues with mine, though it's only been on for about a year and the car doesn't get a lot of use. Mine is not loose or floppy at all. It's very solid, but I used 3M tape as well as the screws. These spoilers are great - for the price. The finish quality ( aka, the fiberglass has some imperfections) is okay, not great. A person could do some finish work to make it better. But, no, it's not of the quality of, say a Seibon piece.

Got mine from china for a third of the price, build quality is fine.
Once bolted down it's very sturdy no complaints.

Yeah, mine was around $35 or $40 USD. I live next to the border fortunately.

That, I totally get. Never worth waiting for what can be months just to save a few bucks. Have fun with the installation. I bet if you documented it here on the site, it would be followed by quite a few people.

SprayMax 2K is the cat's ass. Wear a good quality respirator. Those isocyanates can fark you up really bad! What are you using for a base coat? If you're using Duplicolor Perfect Match, I'd recommending applying the SprayMax clear before the Perfect Match fully cures. I cleared a set of wheels that had been base coated with the Perfect Match and had cured for a few days. The SprayMax flaked off in big sheets. I've applied the SprayMax 20 - 30 minutes after the final base coat of Perfect Match and it bonded really well and never failed.
