Default GT500 wing installed

Finally got my wing from The Spoiler Store yesterday. The paint and fit is absolutely perfect. Unbeatable from a price and quality standpoint.

Anyway, here are some pictures:

Before:







After:













I do have this problem, though:






I'm hoping it'll buff out, but I'm ordering touch-up paint anyway. The Steeda wing I had on before rubbed against the paint and scratched it off, unfortunately.

Aside from that, though, I couldn't be happier with the look. I don't feel like a ricer douche anymore when I'm riding down the road.

That spoiler is 1,000,000 times better than the Steeda.
Looks great.

Looks great, can't wait to have mine on soon.

I don't see what the problem this though, the new spoiler covers those holes so who cares?

And most of that will not buff out, looks like it went through the clear coat in areas.

EDIT: Didn't notice the rings in the picture with the spoiler on. Thats unfortunate, i think those parts that show will buff out some, but becareful because if you blow through the clear your're just going to make it look worse.

An important lesson on why its important for spoilers to not be in direct contact with the lid.

The GT500 spoiler looks great. I was thinking of getting one of those myself. How much did it run you?
