Default Strosek Spoiler Owners

I just got my car back with the Strosek ebay spoiler installed.

I wanted to know how did you guys mount the spoiler?

My concern is that mine is a little wobbly and insecure. It installs with four bolts going from the two aluminum brackets to the Strosek spoiler and two bolts going from the aluminum brackets to the oem spoiler.

I will most likely add another two bolts from the brackets to the stock spoiler, but any ideas from anyone who own the spoiler?

Thanks!

Is it authentic or an eBay replica?

I had it install on my convertible. The body shop just drilled the two holes and double side taped. It held on for two years now no problem. It must be install with oem spoiler.

It can not be adjusted to fit without the OEM spoiler? WoW that is and looks sad.

Here are the pics;

These are the two bolts that go to the Strosek spoiler, everything ok here.

This is the bolt that goes through the oem spoiler and into the Strosek bracket. Its only one per side so i will probably be adding another.

Wooow don´t let the bolts stay in the oem wing. drill through the hatch and use the bolts that came with the strosek spoiler! To secure it additionally use double sided tape. i installed it that way and it´s workin fine for 2 years now with the car hitting the german autobahn with 150mph every day!

Well its not the most beautiful wing available but it´s designed in a windtunnel so it performs very well. you ll even notice differences in handling depending on the position of the wing. Most important for me was that it is legal in germany I got the cf version
