Hey, put my spoiler in this week as well. My fitment was not perfect in a few ways. Front corners of the spoiler tilt up and away from the hatch just slightly. Certainly enough to see a small gap. front lower edge of the spoiler doesn't sit quite flush all the way across the hatch, and the center point of the spoiler is ever so slightly left of dead center. looking at the rear hatch emblem as dead center.

The bolts lined up to the existing holes nicely, the spoiler seems very sturdy, the finish on the spoiler is great.

Some of the above could be due to slight variations in how my hatch is mounted to the car, or user error when installing the spoiler, but I was very careful to get all bolts very loosely connected, had some help with me, and adjusted to centering, etc., before removing the 3m Adhesive strips to actually stick it down. Then tightened bolts as evenly as possible. Just not enough play in the bolt locations unless I would have cut into the trunk a bit to slide everything around with more freedom.

All in all it looks fine from just a few feet away, and it will stay on the car until something better comes along.

If anybody uses any adhesive, etc to fill in the small gaps, let us all know.

Same situation here. I reached out to them about it. I am worried about water collecting in it and should look for a quick fix before it rains. Also there isn't any seals between the mounting points like the factory to prevent water ingress.

Hmmm, mine had little foamy rubber things around each bolt hole. I think that will be fine.
Not sure what else we can do.

let me know what you hear from Artwork.

Curious to know as well.

I had the wide, flat rubber "washers" around the fastener holes also.

I'll probably still add some black silicone after it gets coated

Oh dang. Mine didn't come with those it was bare metal. I might grab some RTV but that could be a mess

I picked up black RTV flexible silicone and sealed the whole unit. Kinda disappointed mine wasn't complete and no response from Artworks yet.

Did you run the Silicone all the way around the perimeter of the spoiler? Can we see pics of how you applied?

πŸ˜‚ It was ugly. I just picked up a tube of black silicone from the Auto parts store. It came with the dispenser nozzle. I first tried to drill a small hole, couldn't get enough out. So kept cutting the tip off till I got enough flow. Just squeezed it in like caulking and wiped with a microfiber rag. Went back with rubbing alcohol to clean up.
Luckily I got this done last night because it rained pretty good today.
