Geez...sorry to hear that. The spoiler lifting is definitely a concern. I would give you my badge if I had since I won't be using it.Great, got this email in the morning:
Also, one end of the spoiler MAY already be liftingWill keep a close eye on it.

I'm sure I will get it soon enough. I'm supposed be on the top of the list when the next batch arrives at my local SC. Hopefully if I also need to get my spoiler replaced, the next one will be the new revision.

Can someone with a "good" install take a close-up of their ends? Here's what mine looks like now:
Right side looks like it may have detached a little:
Left side looks OK-ish:

I don't think the gaps your showing are acceptable?
and I don't think the gap will grow smaller with age?
I can't recall a performance car with carbon accent
being such a debacle to get right, before or after delivery!

Just got mine installed too - 8/4/18 delivery date.
So far, so good...no lifting per se, but there is a tiny gap between the trunk lid and the spoiler at each of the edges (that appear to be equal in size).

Unfortunately on travel but I’ll be happy to DM you when I get back in a weekish.
Edit: Upon closer review of your pictures, I think they are similar. The gap exists only where the adhesive film ends.

I’ve made two trips to SC so far and both spoilers they tried to mount lifted. The spoilers are garbage. Probably better to wait a bit to see if they can sort it out or find another supplier. Totally ridiculous. A freaking spoiler shouldn’t be this hard to implement.

I’ll keep an eye on it myself for lifting, but it’s been 4 days strong and no major lifting has been observed. My trunk lid is also Opticoated, but that should make things worse. I’m happy, knock on wood.

These spoiler issues are just unacceptable. They are already months late getting them out to customers. Now we gotta wait longer for them to fix the spoilers? So frustrating. I’m still waiting for service to call me regarding a different issue I’ve had since I picked up the car. That was in December.
If mine did that, I'd definitely complain. I posed some photos a few pages back. There is a small gap, which is because of the shape of the spoiler. Yours looks like a fitment issue, not the design.

Thanks for confirming. Does look like you have a small gap on one end though. But maybe mine is a little bigger.
Both sides look detached to me. My left side is like yours and right side is sitting pretty well with no gap.

Yes obviously with one side (side that is detached) having slightly larger groove, so the two leaves were both trapped on that left side.
