Default Ebay roof spoiler warning

Just a heads up. This is the second time, so I don't know if these people are scammers or what. It just seems weard to me, so becarefull CL.

Like I said this is the second time I buy a roof spoiler and they get back to me the next day saying they have fitment issues. why try to sell something if it's bad, dosen't make sense.

All the one's I've seen from there have fit great, do a search on the forum, I think everyone who purchased one has been 100% happy with theirs.

I bought mine from them. The only issue I have is that it's short by about 1/4-1/2 of an inch on each side.

Mine is off maybe 1/4" on both side, but that's an advantage for me. The rain water will channel through the side instead of building up on top where it can leave water spots if dried up.

It's funny because my uncle said the same thing to me when we test fitted it. Now that I think about it, I need to get it painted and on the car.
