Great work, looks so awesome(Warning long post)
Hey guys I wanted to give an update on my install. I haven’t driven my car since the install, it’s been in the garage but I noticed that the tape was starting to detach itself on one of the corners from the spoiler. All of the other areas where I used the tape seemed ok.
Since I had plenty of the windo weld left I decided to use it along both corners of the spoiler before the other side gives way. I’m going to end up sealing the whole spoiler with the windo weld. This will also prevent water from getting in.
I recommend this method to anyone who has purchased the GAS spoiler.
You will need:
A few pairs of nitrile gloves
Masking tape
Goo gone
3m windo weld or (insert your choice of urethane) and caulking gun
First step is to mask the area try to get as close to the inside edges as possible.
Next use the 3m windo weld and gun and push a nice amount into the gap.
With the gloves on use the tip of your finger to smear the urethane into the gap, go over it a few times until it is smooth.
Carefully peel away the masking tape. If you happen to get some of the urethane on either spoiler or on a body panel use the goo gone and a microfiber cloth to wipe it off.
I hope this helps anyone who has the same issue I had with the tape. Let me know if you have any questions.
