Seems a little small, and VERY expensive too...

I hope someone comes out with a new one for the na market - I love the r44. Maybe someone can design one that's quite a bit smaller, but not as fugly as the 3D one.
Agreed. So yeah I opened and closed it like 5 times in a row. Doesn't seem to hit it too hard and I don't feel any scratches or scrapes on the bumper or the body part that hits the spoiler. Also the spoiler still feels very firm and no extra wiggle from opening the top. But still, I contacted Euroklasse to return it. This is making me want to sell the G83 to a G82 now... Ugh..

Has anyone seen an aftermarket option that doesn't look like It came off a 97 civic si?

I sent them and email and asked:
“This will 100% for the M4 convertible (G83)? There is minimum clearance. If it doesn’t clear the top is it returnable?”

This was the reply from R44:
“Hello,

This is the newest rendition and clears the roof, we have had nothing but great feedback on this spoiler and would love to get you one sorted.

Any problems at all please refer to our returns policy https://usa.r44performance.com/policies/refund-policy“


Based on that reply it sounds like they have been selling…based on feedback on this site it makes me wonder if they are being honest…

I went ahead and asked
“Have you sold any for the G83? What is the current lead time? “


The response was:
“We have sold very many, as well as having some on back order with our shipment coming in the next few weeks.”

So hopefully yours is one on back order.

Has anyone ordered from R44 before? Are they reputable?

I'll believe it when I see it - there is literally not a single picture on the internet of an actual car with this actual spoiler. I highly suspect not a single one has been delivered yet.

R44 is reputable - they generally make great products. They tend to be ridiculously optimistic with their delivery dates. I have an R44 exhaust, and it took forever to get.

Mine came in, Looked tiny, but when test fit looked awesome and as aggressive as the G83 will allow...literally millimeters of clearance so it's perfect. Installed in 10 mins with my son and some painters tape...comes w/the 3M adhesive tape. Looks very nice. Will Post pics when I can.

Amazing. Fantastic, and I take back my previous comment. Looks like I'm on the backorder list (would have been nice if they told me that....)

Can't wait to see a pic

Sorry out of my mind with work, etc...here you go, and I see more on here already too which is great. R44 direct shipped to me in USA.

I Love the look and literally like I said about 2 MM of clearance so they did a great job.

Awesome! Thanks for posting pics! Can both of you post a pic of how close the top is to hitting it?

I want to see if it is the same distance and where the closes point is.

Thank you!

Thanks so much for sharing these. It looks great.

The wait is killing me. Ordered my r44v1 back in early May, and returned it as soon as I got it. Ordered v2 2 months ago. Looking like this is going to go out until September.

Nice does yours fit perfectly?.. I tried to center it as good as I could but feel like the left is bit out, I looked at it and said f it.. looks good lol

And I might be biased but I feel like the vert has the best profile in the g8x imo…
