Anyway, R44 is definitely the best option here. The 3d design one.. Is.... Um... Not attractive, and crazy expensive. |

My R44 rear spoiler hits
So I looked through the forums, checked out the R44 rear spoiler. I watched install videos. The spoiler looks great on my alpine white G83, but it hits.
I reached out to R44 and got a quick response, supposedly rear deck lid can be adjusted and mine was set a bit lower by the factory. Anyone know how or any place in New Hampshire that would be able to adjust? Would a dealer do it? I love the look of it as the G83 looks better with it, just need to figure out how our who can adjust. |

Well I'm hoping for the best regarding fitment and ordered the G83 spoiler from R44 this morning. Fingers crossed.

The R44 is a fantastic spoiler. Quality and finish are spot on. It definitely gives the G83 a bit more of an aggressive look.

Thank you. fwiw, they seem to be on top of their game now on the fulfillment side. I ordered the spoiler a few hours ago and already have a DHL tracking number showing delivery in three days.

I have heard of many others where it hits. The solution that I heard is to put some rubber padding under the rear deck so that hits the spoiler. I picked up a few different types of padding to try when I get back from my business trip. Will update |

I put a couple pieces of soft weather stripping foam on the underside of the cover panel and that seems to be working out quite well. I'll try and grab a picture of the underside tomorrow. The only thing I'm unsure of is I believe that specific location where I put the foam is where the panel touches the car's built-in weather stripping. It's a soft foam so it should just compress and, well, it is weather stripping itself, so I think it shouldn't be an issue, but I'll keep an eye on it next time it rains. For now it seems to be working out. |

I spoke to a service advisor who seemed to be under the impression it could be done, but officially the word I got from the dealer is that they can't do it. |

Well that's a real bummer. I'll probably get my car in over the next 10 days, but now I'm not very hopeful.

Well, honestly you've got to appreciate their candor and acceptance of ownership of the issue.

MHC G83 Spoiler *Disclaimer*
Hey all,
Sorry if any of you guys felt a bit left in the dark with this, I've just had new born and was away from everything while she settled in. After speaking with MHC in regards to a few repeat issues with contact, we noticed as times gone on and with the newer cars; the adjustment they once made that could be moved (and possible still can) has now become the standard specification... Such a small and what seems to be pointless adjustment has now of course thrown out all the hard work that ourselves and MHC have done to get these fitting literally perfectly. We are here to assist anyone that didn't manage to get in touch with the support team so just drop me a message if there is anything you need help with. I look forward to speaking with you soon. Our official disclaimer bellow: *DISCLAIMER* We have received reports that late 2023 production vehicles are having issues with the roof going too far back from the factory. This means the spoiler may make contact when opening and closing the convertible roof. If you have a vehicle from summer 2023 onwards, we do not advise fitting this spoiler. |
