The real ones are real and the replicas are replicas.

Some replicas are a different size too (bigger).

i bought an ebay one and I like it a lot. It fits fine on my hatch and its strong, sturdy and light. And it's pretty good for the price. Most people can't even tell it's a replica.

here's a picture



More pictures at my cardomain

edit: only downside is when it's been raining and stuff the top of the spoiler will hold a tiny bit of water and when you lift up your hatch the water will run off and splash on your pants make it look like you peed yourself... so if you get one keep a squeegy or something to push the water off.

u could always double sided tape it..but then ull get jacked so fast...bolt it on...its not that hard...im not sure how that wing is made and if it has like a nut or something already inside...then all u need to do is drill some holes...hmm *shrugs*

^ what he said just get a screw driver and screw it on and make sure you measure the hatch and the spoiler and make sure its centered and then double check or it'll look funny when you drill some holes and mount it and make sure you put something inbetween the hatch and the spoiler to keep water out or it'll rust like oem spoilers.

okay double sided tape, NOT A GOOD IDEA. You might kill someone.

Use electric tape to get an idea of where you should drill and then mount. Line up the tape to where you would drill through the wing. Drill the trunk using a 1/16 bit, a 1/8 bit and then a quarter inch bit. You can start by using a smaller bit(if you have one)and end with a bigger bit (depending on how wide your bolt is). if the wing is pre drilled then you're kool. If not then drill the same way. use bolts, nuts and washers. Make sure you get bolts of the correct length.

Be meticulous when finding your drill points.
