So I bought a Seibon cf vortex generator from cvr morotsports and the fitment is horrible. The lines don't match up at all and the edges next to the drip rails stick up and don't sit flush with the vehicles roof at all. Now they are telling me it won't be warrantied because I drilled the hole for the radio antenna because it didn't have one. Has anyone else had this problem? I wouldn't really care except it sticks up so much on the sides that I don't want it to catch wind and fly off. So whats everyones opinions on this?

 

Post pics.

Maybe you can use a grip of double sided tape to make it stick right?

 

Rexpeed FTW

 

+1

 

i have a tyrant VG and the fitment sucks as well, so i just used some black silicone adhesive stuff i bought advanced autoparts, and i filled in where it didnt fit flush

 

ebay vg ftw

 

Punch yourself in the mouth FTW!!!

 

i have one, took a dremel to the edges and now it fits much better.

 

Yeah that sounds like what im going to have to do... I talked to Seibon today and thats what they said is it would have to be modified. I mean I know it cf so there would need to be a little modification but damn... Imma have to halfway rebuild this thing myself... oh well. I don't want to just fill in the holes I want it to fit how it is supposed to. We'll see what happens. Ill post pics soon.

 

I did the same...and I also used a $*!* ton of 3m tape The weave on mine looks great against my CF roof .

 

sweet pics. glad this is in show and shine.

 

Rexpeed!!

 

there are quite a few threads about this. I read about it when I was lookin to get one and decided to go with rexpeeds. Was something to do with the curve of the roof on an MR apposed to others or something like that. People tool dremels to the edges to fix it which has been posted here.

 

i had one as well from seibon didnt fit worth a damn, spent 2 bills on it and half of it blew off on the freeway done with that!! and that sucker had butt loads of 3m on it.

 

There is no hope. This was the first mod on my evo, took me 4 hours to make it fit *its best* that it would, still flew off. Well, half of it. I drilled the hole, dremelled, taped like there was no tomorrow......still no luck. $300+ down the drain
