I just installed my Vortex Generator from Rexpeed. Fitment was EXCELLENT, paint was EXCELLENT, installation was a breeze. I am very happy with Rexpeed, and I will be buying alot from this company. Once ordered, it took 4 days to recieve it. I highly recommend Rexpeed to who ever is considering them

I installed one about 6 months ago, it's held down at each end and in the middle when you screw the antenna back on.. so I had no need for tape. I've never once thought it could get ripped off at high speed, it's pretty solid.

I also have the lower Evo 260 rear wing, so I'm thinking the vortex generator makes up for the difference in downforce. I personally think it looks fantastic, I would never take it off.

Has anyone installed it this way and had a problem wit it or are people actually molding it to the roof or screwing it down somehow? lemme know how u installed yours and if you'vve had any probs with it

Yeah I paid like ninety bucks for mine, fitment was perfect, paint was perfect. I am impressed for the amount I paid. It looks and fits as if it came straight from the dealership. I have no complaints.

wrong section first off.

And 2nd- the ebay generator is about $60... there should be NO difference between the two for performance applications, the fitment is the first thing that comes up in conversations about e-bay knock offs but its been bought and tested by people on this site.. it fits and it looks IDENTICAL to the 300 mitsu dealer rip. Just sayin for 60 it adds that extra element to the car.
