Should I be worried???

I think I was the last of the last of the last guys to get on-board for this. The money is long been taken from the credit card so I assume I'm in Batch 3.

Sounds like Batch 3 could be 4-8 weeks out for actual delivery.


Any word/update on Batch 3 Steve? It is still going to happen isn't it? If not, I'm gonna cry like a little girl....

EDIT: my bad, there may not actually be a Batch 3, I may have mis-read something earlier. Hopefully I'm just at the end of the list and it'll come soon.

I used their tape along with the some Industrial 3M tape that I had lefted over when I mounted my WIN rear spoiler...Iam sure that it's almost the same stuff. Save the $$$ and mount it yourself.

Default UGO spoiler mounting

hi thanks, i will try the tape and the 3m. Question though, if you use the tape wouldn't it cause the bottom of the spoiler and the surface roof to have a gap? I mean it wouldnt sit flush right? and is it noticable since the tape in between the spoiler and the roof?

thanks

There is a very small gap, nothing to worry about. It's not noticeable or obvious.

The way to mount this thing is to mount the tape to the roof first. Use two parallel strips of tape across the roof (measure the width of your spoiler - about 3" - to make sure that you're putting the tape in the right spots) Then peel up about an inch or less from one end of the tape at the edge of the roof, and leave the red plastic protective cover sticking out at a right angle so that you can still grab it when the spoiler is where it belongs. Mount the spoiler loosely to the tape and get its positioning correct on that one end, while getting the other side close to final position. Then go to the other side of the roof, at the other end of the spoiler, and do the same thing - peel about an inch of tape from each strip. ***Don't push the spoiler down tightly onto the tape until the very last step.*** The spoiler should now be loosely held by only an inch of tape on each end of the spoiler. Now peel off the red covering off all tape strips. *This can be difficult so do it slowly and carefully. When all the plastic covering is peeled off, push the spoiler down tight, and voila! If it was done correctly it will be perfectly spaced and even, because it can be repositioned until the point where you peel all the red covering off the tape.
