Just finished putting the roof spoiler on with a friend from work. He let me drive his 08' 4.6L V8 Hyundai Genesis today what a beast that car is!! Anyways I'm gonna leave the cases on it overnight and I also taped down both edges good and tight. I'll post another pic tomorrow when I remove the cases and tape. I used alcohol and adhesive promoter so I'm thinkin its gonna be on there good!!

It rained all day today I was at work clenching my teeth hoping it wouldn't fly off on the way home or start popping up or anything. I looked at it when i got home and it almost looks like the back left side of the spoiler (not the corner) isn't sitting properly on the window.. I can push it down and watch the 2 way tape compress a bit which really pisses me off... Its probably 6-8 inches in from the back left corner of the spoiler if your lookin down from above.. Gonna keep an eye on it over the course of the week but if i see it get any worse its comin off and I'm gonna silicone the **** out of it and slap it on there for good. I don't ever plan on removing it so if this tape don't hold up it's gettin siliconed. Seems like that is the only spot where i don't have good ahdesion.. seems like a weird spot for it not to stick either.. Again its veeeerrrrryyyyy small but it'll only get worse I imagine.. If you grab the spoiler and try to move it though.. you can't.. So I'm gonna monitor it and go from there..

Can you post a pic? I think you should fill the silicone. (I did mine from one corner bottom right.)

As bad as this pic is.. its as good as I could get it.. you can see 3 small sections of black on the grey tape line this is where its popped up.. I might run to the store and get some silicone as you mentioned CreativeS and hit it in that spot... Like I said the spoiler is solid as a rock..
