Sorry for my late reply 
I was on holiday, and did not have had the opportunity to post. I will need to check with my friend, who is the DSR distributor for Hong Kong and China. So please give me some more time.

HKGS300 - any chance you'd include a price for those of us who don't have hookups in Asia?
That's a sweet spoiler. I've been looking for something that fits like an UGO, but goes on the glass (the thought of sticking something on my paint scares me, especially if some fool tries to steal it off my car. idiots trying to steal emblems are scary enough. imagine if they try to pull off a roof spoiler!)
Kola - Lookin' good.

That spoiler is HOTT!!! I had my heart set on a UGO but I too share a concern of sticking something on my car that can be ripped off and ruin the paint. Count me in if you can get your hands on a few.

Can we get some close up pics of the spoiler? I saw some pics of an unfinished one and I was not impressed with the quality. I can only hope that it was a pre-production version and this one fixed those issues.
It is hard to tell on this car since it is black. With the one I saw, a bodyshop would have to do quite a bit of work to refinish the spoiler. Since kola got it pre-painted, I don't know if things got fixed during the prep-painting process or the actual spoiler got fixed. DSR seems to be responsive to the issues so I hope they fixed them. That is a good sign that a company is open for feedback. I've been biting my tongue on this but it seems like a good number of members are interested now. I just wanted to raise a little flag and ask a few questions. Some of these issues are hard to pin down. I was forwarded the pics and info as an outside verification. I trust the eyes of the people who wanted me to verify the data.
kola,
Can you take a pic of the spoiler at the top edge? Can you also get a pic of the trailing edge of the spoiler meaning the edge that is not touching the car, close up on the half that is on the passenger side?
Did you guys also notice that the spoiler sits below the black edge of the window? On a black car, it blends in OK but on a different color car, you will see roof (body color), black trim, then spoiler (body color). If you expect that, then OK. If not, I just wanted to point that out.
This spoiler seems to be a good mix of the existing popular 2: UGO and L-Sportline. I like the shape of the UGO which this one seems to retain. It sits on the glass so it alleviates some of other members' concern. I personally still like the UGO. I don't plan to take it off. As for it being stolen, the thief would have to work pretty hard to get it. It is on there pretty tight.

I don't know. I will PM HKGS300 tonight and see if he's talked to the good folks at DSR and will let you guys know about what's up. Maybe a new version like Neo suspected is already out and Kola got the first unit? I don't know. It's been a while since I looked deeply into any roof spoiler.....
Good heads-up Neo!
