Default Help: UGO roof spoiler owners.

I recently purchased an Ugo roof spoiler and i did a quick test fit and i noticed that it does not cover the full back window like i expected it to. it covers the majority of it however there is still a half inch gap on each side. i dont understand why it would not span across the full rear window. Have any of you other Ugo roof spoiler owners had this issue? i did a search to no avail. Any help would be great thanks

i will try to snap some pictures these weekend if the weather isnt too bad.

You are not supposed to attach it to the window, it gets attached to the very back part of the roof. Try to place it on the roof, and the fitment will be perfect.

yeah if you line it up at the roof (not the rear window), it should be perfect fit. i have yet to see a ugo that doesn't fit perfectly
