I installed mine with just the two bolts and the 2 sided tape and that thing will not budge! The most difficult part of the installation is getting the OEM spoiler off... The best trick is warm weather and fishing line to sever the OEM tape on the pedestal.

Because of the flush look that it gives the rear, putting a contrasting color would look odd at best.

Not at all... Did you use the two bolt and tape install method or the four bolt? You may need to check and make sure the nuts are tightened down (I know, that was obvious). Lift up on it all the way around and see if any part of it raises. Even a fraction of an inch can cause vibration. Mine does not budge.

This is from when I first bought it, before most mods (The door guards are gone). Oh and the wheels need to go, I know.




According to FedEx, the spoiler will arrive tomorrow. Will post after pics
