Any able to purchase one of these aero flaps?
I like it and tried to order this and they have canceled my order on the shipping date or close to the shipping date. First time I placed an order on 11/22/2021 then got a refund and cancelation on 12/28/2021 with this message. I am sorry that we are not able to fulfill your order at this time. We just had your order canceled, please allow a couple business days for your bank to process the refund.

I then ordered again on 12/29/2021 now I have gotten the second cancelation today on 1/17/2022. saying Your order from Caruse Design has been refunded.

I emailed the first time asking why my order was canceled even when I pressed purchased way ahead of time but I have not gotten any response from them.

Did anyone else try to order ang get thier order canceled?

Yeah I just placed another order after the 2nd time canceling my order because it couldn't be fulfilled. Hopefully third times a charm :dunno:.

I ordered mine back in October 2021. Got it in a week. But that was the v2 version. The v.2.5 was backordered.

I'd post pics. But it won't let me on this thread for some reason.

Found it on their site- 20% increase in rigidity

That being said, might be the same style

I got confirmation that mine will be shipping out at the end of February. I have an SI Coupe. So my story is slightly different.

The 2.5 looks the same as mine. The mentioned rigidity may help keep it from lifting over the tail lights.

Also, very important. Do not use their provided 3m tape when you get it. Buy some pro grade 3m tape. The tape they provide is garbage.

I used their tape for part of it and havent had any problems. I cleaned the wing and flap pretty good. I think for the shorter strips I might have used something a bit thicker and wider though.

Their 3m tape isn't terrible. I just recommend really cleaning your wing. Also, if your wing is ceramic coated, the tape will never hold.

Honestly if i could do it over again. I would have wiped my wing down with an alcohol pad after cleaning it. Also, it was rainy season at the time of installation and I don't keep my car garaged.

Pretty sure that was a big factor. But wider 3m tape wouldn't hurt.

I think wiping with alcohol was what I did and I did mine on a nice hot summer day so im sure that helped with adhering.

Supply chain definitely sucks right now so I wish I could say I was surprised they might be having issues keeping up.

I love my flap!

If you want that oem+ look it's definitely worth the wait. I'm actually replacing mine with a m style carbon fiber spoiler though. But it was nice to have for a bit.
