Yes, it'll fit a 2014. But there are two different types I believe. SSS and non SSS.

If your car does not have the SL package, basically the sunroof, then your roof should have the humps on the side.

If it has the sunroof, then your roof will be flat without the humps.

I like that first pic, looks ba, haha. But I've been going back and forth about getting one or not. The only thing thats keeping me back is the 3M adhesive, so if you put it on. Then later if you want to take it off, im sure its going to take the paint with it. I think the rexspeed probably looks the best. I just dont like the hump youll see from the roof line, I wish it was a little more low profile. I wish mits. just integrated into the roof like they did with the nine. Oh well, still not sure if I want the aftermarket ones or not. I also know theres some problems with the antenna fitting on a few manufacturers.

It won't. You just have to heat it to get it to release. The paint will stay.

I've heard that fitment on aftermarket VG's are hit or miss.

+1 on using a heat gun for clean removal

just remove how you would if you were debadging. use hair dryer or heat gun and waxed dental floss or small gauge high weight fishing line. then remove the remainder with googone or an equivalent
