Looks like I just got shipment confirmation as well. Some of you are reporting getting this in a few weeks!? Mine will be 5 months.
Just to clarify... the oem spoiler is real carbon fiber and this ebay one is abs? Is the tsportline real? Can you get a real carbon fiber spoiler for around $300?

The IKON spoiler is ABS with a real Carbon fiber overlay, this way you still get the authentic look but without the price tag.
FYI it looks like leomh1190 is selling new OEM spoilers on ebay for $300. I got sick of waiting and for the same price would definitely rather go OEM. Mine should arrive in a week. I'll update after delivery!

I ordered the RPM spoiler but I cancelled and got a full refund, they were really good about it and refunded me immediately. Was waiting eight weeks and they could not give me an ETA. I said F-it and ended up just taking a chance and buying an el-cheapo China Ebay special for $130 and I am glad I took the risk because I am very pleased. It is not true CF but light ABS covered in gloss CF wrap or overlay. I installed it using 3M VHB with the activator since the tape that was pre-installed was junk. The spoiler is an OEM replica and is very subtle on a black car. The fit is fine and with the VHB, I doubt will come off anytime soon.

C
can you link to the Ebay listing you purchased from? Mine wasn’t even what was pictured. Also more pics of the edge?
The whole thing is nonsense. I ordered 7/2/2019. Paid IN FULL. Last update was it "should ship" before end of November. Refund being requested.

Yeah. Ordered Jun 1st. Finally got delivered last Thursday. Was going to install this past weekend, but plans changed due to power outage all weekend here in the Bay Area. Finally got around to opening the box a few minutes ago and found a defect/damage. Bummer... It was really well wrapped and protected. No crazy damage seen on the box either. E-mailed RPM. Let's see how quickly they respond (pretty slow response in the past when asking for shipment estimates) and what they will do.

Response via e-mail was quick! They believe it was bent during shipping, so I sent photos of the box and they will file a claim. Unfortunately, I will need to wait about four weeks for the next batch of spoilers.
