Hows the fitment.. i can see some flaws.. but that might be at the angle you took the pic at.. is this the Raze roof spoiler?

Oh cheers, look for flaws how about how nice it looks ?

It didn't take long to fit but to be honest, if you glue it on rather than used 3M double sided tape, I recon you could get a better fit to the glass.

Once the tape grabs there's not much you can do about repositioning it. I used black silicone sealant around the edge to give a better finish as I didn't like seeing a gap. The sealant wasn't "free flowing" so I had to smooth it myself but unless you get up close like in the pics you wouldn't know.

Yes it's the Raze one

so about those full car shots from a few angles...

Looks nice, but it also looks like it does not conform to the arch of the rear window ?

Thats why I would suggest using a glue rather than double sided 3M as the tape grabs and its on. If you used a glue you could press the middle in and it will conform better to the window shape. Unless you are p real close it doesn't show anyway so I am not going to remove it and re fit, hence the black silicone to seal water out from the 3M tape and help to finish it off a little better rather than a small gap in the center of the window.

try spraying a soapy water mix on the glass this will give you some adjustment time and then hold in place until the 3m starts to stick. Might want to have an extra set of hands or use some duck tape to hold in place.

Thanks for the tip but unless it loosens I think I will leave it be for the time being. I was concerned that using soapy water would affect the bonding properties of the tape and I did not have a helper to hand while I fitted it. Also the temps are too low now for me to redo it so would need to wait till spring/ summer anyway

Overpriced in my opinion. That fitment doesn't follow the contour of the roof at all.
