Carbon fiber wing from eBay

[untilcomplete]

So at 1/3 the price of the T Sportline wing, I decided to pull the trigger on the ebay carbon fiber spoiler for the Model 3.

Pros
- Cheap
- Looks exactly like the T Sportline Wing (Coincidence?)
- Fast Shipping (from China...)

Cons
- Minor CF imperfection in clear coat
- Not a 100% perfect fit
- Rough edges, afraid it will damage paint over time

Not sure if it is allowed, but I wrote a slightly more in-depth review on my blog (DIY, Technology, and other random stuff!: Tesla Model 3 Carbon Fiber Wing from eBay!).

Which part is not perfect fit?

Which part is not perfect fit?

The right side crease that goes over the trunk edge. Seems like there was too much extra fiber that doesn't let it sit flush. Left side is fine. Real hard to notice unless youre installing it. eeBa seller is working with me to get it resolved.

Cool. We may consider developing a carbon fiber wing as well. Do you have any suggestions?

I would be interested in a carbon fiber spoiler that's similar in style to what's posted above, but goes the length of the trunk instead of stopping too short. Essentially a bit longer.

Another hot item would be an OEM performance spoiler style in glossy carbon fiber. I'd be all over that one in glossy.

Yes I agree. I don't really like the style of the RPM Tesla style wing. If there was a similar style spoiler as the TSportline/eBay/OEM that went the full length of the truck, had tighter tolerances so it fit perfectly, I would definitely buy one.

It really needs to run the entire length of the trunk

And extremely tight quality control tolerances. Not just the fit and finish (literally both) but also the adhesive quality.

E.g. a lot of aftermarket knockoffs say they use 3M or flat out put a fake 3m branded wrapping on the adhesive when it's obviously junk.

If the price was more compelling than the competition and all of the above were true it would be a no brainer.

Yea my eBay spoiler came with tape (not attached). First fit didn't actually stick. Ended up getting some 3m double sided tape from Lowe's.

Good suggestions. We will have our coworker to start the development. Will let you guys know once we have a sample.
