Default eBay OEM Spoilers

Thinking of just getting a cheap replica OEM spoiler from eBay. Many different vendors selling them for $100-$120 shipped and already painted.

Easy piece to make, so I don't think fitment should be an issue. But it could be.

So I was wondering if anybody had bought the OEM style spoilers on eBay? How is your fitment and paint quality? Wondering if I should try it out or just avoid a headache... Might as well try to save money.
The double-sided sticky tape is sufficient to hold these on, correct? Thanks!

Might I ask if you put it on yourself? I dont trust myself to line it up right. I might buy one now. Beats the 365 bucks anywhere else.

I'm looking for an OEM CF wing, and have seen the ones on ebay. Can anyone tell me if the ebay CF wings are inferior quality wise to the OEM CF wing being sold by 350zsource.com? The ebay ones seem to be around $125, whereas the 350zsource ones are in the $250 area...

I've been looking into the oem cf spoilers also...I heard the delsa/ebay spoiler has some gap issues at the ends....
I was planning on going to Motorsport Auto on Saturday which is 350zsource's showroom...as I live 10 minutes from them...
that's where I bought my CF lip...not a good picture..but you get the idea

^ That looks great!

Could you ask 350zsource about any potential differences between theirs and the delsa wing, and then let me know? I would really appreciate it, as it's definitely worth knowing, given the $100 difference between the two.

Bump for any more info...still trying to see if I can save myself $100 by buying the ebay spoiler, or if I'm just gonna regret it. Based on the other threads I read that the issues with gap were due to using the double sided tape...the ebay ads now claim it comes with some sort of silicon adhesive. Anyone have any further input?

Never really got much info myself. Consensus seems to be that they're ok, but using the 2 sided tape, they don't fit quite well in the corners. I've seen that they ship with some sort of silicon adhesive, but i haven't heard if that works better. THe only other OEM CF spoiler I could find was from 350zsource and it was $250ish. So I guess it's up to you to see if its worth the difference or not.
