Thoughts on spoiler

Ok well I need to get these holes covered. My car originally was fitted with a spoiler, but I assume the PO removed the spoiler or someone snagged it, I do not know.

I've been looking for a replacement spoiler, but I'm not getting any luck. Been looking on Ebay and Amazon. So far I've found replacement spoilers on Ebay that are OEM. I've also found replica MS spoilers on both sites.

What are the thoughts on the replica MS spoilers? I like the look, but I'm worried about fitment from what I've researched on here. I've found carbon fiber spoilers that are MS style and I've found fiberglass MS spoilers.

My car is Winning Blue and don't know how what to do. Just looking for advice. I'm not looking to spend a fortune on this.

TIA

- Chris

I was in your situation awhile ago, and I order my spoiler from japan just to get it authentic because I read so much bad things about the fitment. If I were you go OEM or buy an authentic. Trust me, you wont regret it. I bought a whole body kit and I am happy

Thats just too expensive at this time. I was looking at an ebay seller named "Racing_Raven". I've seen good reviews about this seller on here and fitment being good. I'm just unsure for some reason.

EBay is hit and miss. Just go with an oem spoiler. Not flashy, and you can find them here in the FS often for a good price.

"Cheap" usually means "more $ to make it work".

Agreed, Ebay can be a gamble. I did a RMM replica wing for my MKIV from ebay and it was OK at best. Some guys have good luck, some not so much.
