9K Racing Roof Spoiler Install Review/How To:

My review:
Overall the fitment was amazing! It was on the point. No gaps. No warps or uneven surfaces. No cracks. Nothing. Very little work (body filler/ bondo) has to be done to it. Highly recommended. 10/10.

Pictures/ Process:
1) Testing fitment:

2) Prep work:
Very little work was done to fix it.

4)Installation
I used rubbing alcohol to clean the bottom of the roof wing to make the double sided tape stick better. Also used rubbing alcohol to clean the surface of the rear window.

Note:When installing it, make sure you have a friend to help you. Once the roof wing is on and aligned, have one person apply pressure and the other using a heat gun on the opposite side of the window. (heat gun will make it stick better too)

Done!

Again, highly recommended roof wing if you want a dmax style roof wing. Thanks for looking and special thanks 9k racing!

Wing looks killer, got any overall shots of your car now?

You wouldn't believe how many questions I get on how to install a roof spoiler and you just answered them for me.

Thanks for the review Jesse!

Wow i thought it would look a lot better before you did all the work, i see imperfections but nothing z-grip cant fix. i guess fitment is decent.

Great job on the body filler though

too bad they dont make the simple version, D-max version isnt my style, maybe i might buy this and chop the extra piece off then fiberglass/z-grip it and DONE.
