Default Roof spoiler

I am about to order a roof spoiler and cannot decide whether to go with the JP or Wald? Is there a difference or are they the same?
Also do they stick to the glass or the top trim piece over the window?

Thanks

both of them on the roof. you can see that they are both above the stock 3rd brake like, so it has to be on the roof. depends on what you are after. if your body kit is aggressive (like my wald), then wald is better. if you want to go simple, then jp is better since it's more mellow. they are not the same

Al, I got the Wald as well. (still waiting on the paint). If you are getting the same kit that I have (Admiration), I think the Wald looks better.

henry,

what method did you use to attach the wing???

one shop i spoke to said double sided tape? or would it be better to permanently bond it to the car?

never perm bond, that means repainting the roof when you take it off

double sided tape is good, but you need to use the right kind. use 3m industrial grade double sided tape. don't worry, after putting it on, you should worry about taking it off than it flying off

3m industrial grade double sided tape is a very good product.

Like rominl said you would have to be worried about taking it off.
