B8.5 S5 CARBON FIBER SPOILER OPTIONS?

[gmonsivais]

Hey guys, I've been trying to find a carbon fiber spoiler for my B8.5 S5 that actually fits since I've now ordered 2 that were supposed to fit but neither one did. So I'm wondering if anyone knows of any companies that offer the correct one for the refreshed model besides the High kick style?


Thanks

I ordered this mostly based on the fact that it was reviewed well with an accompanying picture: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Fits perfect:

Carrrnuttt, how is this installed? I like that look, also what diffuser it that you have and will it fit over dual 4" tips? Thanks!

The wing is installed using industrial-strength double-sided tape, which is included with it. It's pretty sturdy. Mine has been on for a couple of months and now and hasn't budged, even after a few car washes.

The rear diffuser is from ECS: https://www.ecstuning.com/b-ecs-part...023409ecs01~a/

They're showing it on their site with the ECS exhaust, which has 4-inch tips:

Thank you, I've been looking at that very diffuser now on back order at ECS.

It really is the best looking one out of all the options available to us. I looked hard and long at all of them.

Carrrnutt, thanks for the feedback & pics. Wondering if you had any fitment issues or any gaps on the ends?

Fitment against the bumper was/is perfect. No gaps.

Right after I installed it over two months ago:



Two weeks ago, when I was getting an oil change at my buddy's shop:



The only thing that didn't line up perfectly (for me) was the two hidden screw holes on tabs that ends up on the inside of the bumper at each ends of the diffuser. Easily solvable by drilling a new hole in the tab. The torx screws that are the main support underneath are plenty and lined up perfect for me and have been more than sturdy.

Ooops.

I just realized this was the OP, asking about the SPOILER, not the diffuser, lol.

You can look at my oil change pic above. The spoiler lines up great against the trunk. Although I wouldn't mind some kind of trim piece that completed the "flow" all the way to the fender (not that it doesn't look great, as is). I'm seriously thinking about fabricating some on my own by creating a mold using clay and one of those DIY CF kits.
