I’ve been trying to get cf parts that match the weave of the cf package. I’m not sure of a spoiler that matches but the only lip that will match both cf vents in the front bumper is the RSC lip. The weave on the lip comes together in the middle perfectly like arrows almost like the lip was made in two pieces. I hope I am explaining this well enough. I will 100% be matching weaves on all the cf parts I get for this car.

Good! You do that, and I'll buy what you buy. Sounds like a how-to post, in the works.

I have the parts sitting in my living room. Just waiting for my car to arrive in early December. It’s on a boat now.

Im undecided on alot of things. I want to OEM look carbon diffuser, but the carbon knock off ones, are a knock off of the piano black rear diffuser, and arent the same shape as the OEM one.

Should be pretty straightforward. Heat up the adhesive with a heat gun or blow dryer (make sure to be continuously moving the heat source around so you don't bake the paint), then take some floss or fishing line and moving it in a sawing motion to remove it. Then you'll just have clean up any remaining residue which can be done a few different ways. I've always just used some isopropyl alcohol to help remove any remaining adhesives.

Get the 3M wheel. It will take you hours to remove the glue using alcohol alone.

Matt, are these stock photos of the spoiler you purchased? Do you have a link for purchase and/or pics on your car that you could share? I just installed the MHC (R44) Ducktail Spoiler. Quality is great, but it is a bit too aggressive for me. Looking for something new or revert back to stock.
