Default Ebay UGO roofspoiler ... any good?

Saw that some one put an UGO roofspoiler for sale on ebay.

Is the quality any good?

Did you search plenty of topics on the UGO, I've seen many members here have purchase that roof spoiler.

There is a UGO spoiler which is just about the most sought over roof spoiler for the GS. Then there is the Ebay roof spoiler, which one are you looking at?

Some people have bought the now discontinued UGO roof spoiler and there is an imitation UGO roof spoiler now on eBay. I don't think anybody has bought the eBay version yet. If you want to be the first then take one for the team. I'm pretty sure the quality won't be up to par as I bought the other roof spoiler they have on eBay and the fitment isn't perfect even though others have had better luck.

FYI, a truu UGO should have this symbol on the back. I think the 2nd run of UGO type roof spoilers that Carson sold did not have the symbol.

Just bought one... I really wasnt even thinking about if I really wanted it, I just took one look and clicked the "Buy It Now" button. Ebay makes it too easy to make for impulse buys I guess i will let you guys know how it fits when that time comes.

I received mine !

I testfitted it on my car and it seems to be an excellent fit.

But ... i am not an expert installer ... I will bring it to my bodyshop and will ask them to confirm my judgement
