spoiler over PPF?

[tashtibet]

Hi, will it be alright If I install spoiler over the PPF?

My carbon fiber spoiler is installed over my xpel stealth ppf, just make sure it's not ceramic coated in the area the double sided tape will be making contact with

If you ever need to remove the spoiler likely it’ll tear the PPF off with it.

Mine is too. Installed at the same time. A little lifting at the corners but probably no worse than would have happened without PPF.

Has everyone gotten latest software update? The one with car wash mode, I haven’t

Anyone else has experience with installing a rear spoiler over PPF? I just picked up my MY and planning on doing a full stealth wrap. I don't know should I install a spoiler before or after. My concern is if I install it before, it might come off like many people has experienced and it might be hard to get a new spoiler back on the same spot.

This happens to people? I have mines overtopof XPEL stealth and has no problem, in fact I have a full lip kit overtop too, no problem either.

NO IT IS NOT SAFE.
you cna peal off PPF fairly easily With your fingers, it is a fI’ll. Think about it. Paint is cured onto the surface, you cannot peal your paint off with your fingers...
the purpose of a rear spoiler it to provide downforce.
great possibility that it will fly off at high speed and become a projectile.
if you are doing PPF you can either have them leave the mounting area alone OR mount the new spoiler then do your PPF around it.

huge liability if it hits something when it flies off

It's not ideal to mount spoilers or any exterior parts over top of ppf if it's being held by adhesive only. For one anyone could just walk up and take it off with little resistance and if you ever have to replace the film you have to remove the old then re-apply 3m tape all over. If the film is existing just take it to a ppf shop with your spoiler and they will be able to cut that area out so you can affix the spoiler to paint.
