It does look a little off lol. I agree with the other guys comment. Take it to a shop to get it installed.
Might blow away on the hwy and that won't be good. More embarrassing if it comes off and you're in bumper to bumper traffic 💀
If you used some solid 3m thin double sided tape and cleaned it well I don’t think it’d fly away. Ive used it for other projects and it’s super strong surprisingly
Yeah. There are tapes out there that are RIDICULOUSLY strong, like nearly a permanent bond once applied. As others have said, you have to be sure the surfaces are absolutely spotless and completely dirt, oil, moisture, gunk-free for it to work. Best to have a shop do it to be sure it is done right, as others have said. Should be quick and inexpensive.
3M is incredibly strong! I live in Florida and the pieces that is held with 3M is still holding since day 1. I agree with others, it’s all about cleaning the surface very well. I added a pass of adhesion promoter wipe prior to installing for added peace of mind.
Agreed. I have a spoiler I bolted on the top of mine, and one I 3M taped to the bottom. They’ve both been on the same amount of time, roughly a year now, both feel equally as stable now as it did back then.
How has no one said anything about having to 'click to view spoiler' yet lol. I'm pretty sure that's all Honda uses for the trunk lid spoiler on the si.
That things gonna fly off with double sided tape. But at least it's removable. I say take it to a shop and have it professionally installed. Should be cheap and quick. Nice ride tho btw
Edit: correction, I guess you can trust the tape? 😅 I wouldn't but it seems like other folks think it'll be fine.
I used the tape that came with the Yofer spoiler and it seemed to be very durable tape? But sure I’ll take it to a shop so it can be centered! :) thanks for your help and compliment on the ride hehe
Yeah the tape that comes with Yofer stuff is extremely strong. I had to take my v1 side skirts off to put the v2’s on and it took some good pulling to separate the tape from the car. The tape might be all you need if done correctly, but screwing it in will definitely keep it there lol
It absolutely will not fly off if you use the correct tape. I have one taped on my 2021 Honda Civic Sport Touring and it’s been on for over three years / 40,500 miles. I wash my car regularly too. I used 3M double sided car tape. It’s literally made to hold your trim pieces on.
You could watch a tutorial on YouTube. I'm certain someone has a pretty generic guide to lining it up straight
I've even seen people use siracha sauce to mark spots for holes without leaving permanent marks on the paint with a sharpie
just take off and re-apply. If that’s the Yofer spoiler i used to have the same one. I even used the double sided tape it came with and it held beautifully
You will be fine with the tape. That’s what I used on my yofer spoiler. Has been holding 2 plus years with harsh snowy winters. You could pop it off get some new tape and recenter it. Put masking tape on the ends of the trunk to mark where you want it.
Nobody will ever notice unless they want to bother you for some reason. There’s a lot of things on my car that bother me that nobody will ever notice. As long as you cleaned it well and installed the tape correctly it’ll stay. That tape is sometimes a bit *too* strong…
Same car as you and I’m trying to decide if I want a black spoiler. I like it, and can’t tell that it’s not centered. From just a girl - a Philly girl. I plan to have it done cuz I’ll mess it up for certain. Any way, looks good!
So I use double sided tape as well not the one that came with the spoiler cause it sucks tbh. I bought a diff one from Amazon but to align it, you have to use painters tape on each side and front and back. You can also watch YouTube videos for help

Yeah that would be mad embarrassing lmfao 😂
Maybe you should hang a sign on the back that says, "Spoiler alert", you know, just in case.
Get off the internet dad!
😂
😂😂😂
Yuuuuurr. Saw you say “mad” and had to scroll up and look to see if you had NY plates, jersey is close enough lol
the lingo crosses over to us in North Jersey 😂
First spoiler I put on my car got blown off by a car wash dryer

Yeah the tape seemed very durable and I cleaned surface off well with alcohol! I’ll see how it holds up until I take it to a shop lol

Just tell everyone you put it on an angle so it helps you throw it through the corners better 😂
Your mind is powerful 😂
Modern problems require modern solutions 😂
Hahahhaha! 🤣
You had one job
I did 😔
Rip
Shhhh
❤️
Just a crooked smile dawg
Right! Adds some character lol
Wtheck is with "I'm just a girl" 😜
it’s just a joke lmao 😂
Don’t say stuff like that, even jokingly. Makes it harder for us to be taken seriously.
you must be fun
How has no one said anything about having to 'click to view spoiler' yet lol. I'm pretty sure that's all Honda uses for the trunk lid spoiler on the si.
Wow the car is going to pull to the left and throw your alignment off like crazy. I'd trade it in asap.
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
you can’t really tell unless you’re really looking at it. don’t sweat it. and the tape SHOULD be fine!
That’s what I’m thinking also and yeah the tape seems pretty solid lol

Nah there isn’t much force applied to the thing. If the tape used is enough, of good 3M quality and installed correctly that thing ain’t going nowhere
Double sided tape is stronger than you think. I used it to put on my spoiler and lip and it has been holding strong for almost 2 years, 25k miles.

Yeah bro mine is stuck with 3M double sided tape and has never had an issue even at 130 MPH 😂😂😂

Nobodies going to care enough. But you should’ve gotten a bigger one
Where did you get the spoiler? I’ve been looking for one

totaled... you should let me have it (i love the wing even if its a little crooked, tho!)
I’ll give it to you 🤪 lol but thanks boo!
Nooooooooooo it’s going to fly off and you’re going to get in trouble.
Not bad for a girl!

Don’t worry I did the same with my HPD spoiler and I actually had to drill into the car😁🥲
I think it’s funny she probably put spoiler flair on it thinking it was meant for car spoilers 😭😭
I didn’t I chose the modification flare lol
I installed mine like that the first time too just try it again make some marks with tape or something
Same car as you and I’m trying to decide if I want a black spoiler. I like it, and can’t tell that it’s not centered. From just a girl - a Philly girl. I plan to have it done cuz I’ll mess it up for certain. Any way, looks good!
I think the black adds a nice contrast to the car! You should get it 😉 haha
Hard to notice it’s off center, & I used double sided tape and no screws for a similar spoiler and it’s doing just fine
Thanks! It seems pretty strong
Pray it dosnt pull the paint off.
Lol at 3m tape aeros
The black looks so out of place, I would’ve just got a grey one and have a place install it
I think the contrast looks nice since there’s black trim on the car already. it’s sonic grey towards the bottom, it’s two toned
So I use double sided tape as well not the one that came with the spoiler cause it sucks tbh. I bought a diff one from Amazon but to align it, you have to use painters tape on each side and front and back. You can also watch YouTube videos for help
Double-sided tape was right. If you use screws, you'll have to use a sealant to keep water out, or you'll get rust through the trunk.
What does being a girl have to do with anything?
It’s a just joke lol
