Fitted my TCR spoiler today... One word... Stressful!

Going to get some better pictures tomorrow, it's not the easiest thing to photograph tbh. The pictures really don't do it justice and it was only when I'd seen one up close I decided to go for it.

Excellent! Yeah, you just need to prepare then go for it!

The prep work was the easy bit. Man needs balls of steel to pull that red tape knowing there's no going back after that point!

I know what you mean, but placing some tape to guide where it needs to go helped me...

Having now improved the rear, have you had any thoughts about the cosmetic improvements to the sides or front? I'm trying to decide whether to have the side skirts and possible front bumper plastic parts sprayed gloss black too.

Only thing I'm considering doing is going with gloss black badges but I'm really not sure.

Pictures don’t do the spoiler justice. You have to see it in the flesh. They just give the end a very nice extra something. I’ve had a few people comment on mine, usually when filling up oddly.
Current: Clubsport45, white, DCC.

Past: Mk5 gti blue graphite, mk6 gti carbon grey, mk6 gti edition 35 candy white, Mk7 pp gti tornado red, 2016 Audi S3 sportback, 2019 7.5 Golf R.

The 1st picture is probably the most accurate example of what it looks like in the flesh I'd say.

Looks fantastic and makes a big difference to the profile of the roof/boot
