It's the best fitting option but not all are perfect. I've seen some with a gap at the edge where the raised section blends into the corner of the rear fender. IMO, looks terrible.

I've seen some that are spot on.

In our experience, it fits pretty well but still requires a bit of custom work to fit properly - same of which could be said for all aftermarket aero.

I just had mine installed. It's better than most but it's not a perfect fit. I can spot the errors but my girlfriend (who has no keen eyes for details) didn't spot the flaws. I give it an 8.5/10

Mine doesn't fit perfect. 8 out of 10 at best.

We have a body guy that has been here for 27 years so with his installs the fitment is a 9 out of 10. It really comes down to the prep work and body man.

My only other beef is that my BMW OEM roundel for the trunk doesn't fit and I have to find a spare or leave it naked.

Looks great!! You should be able to reuse your OEM roundel. All you need to do is drill holes and fill them with the rubber grommets and insert roundel. Otherwise you can always shave the pins on the roundels and use 3M tape to hold it in place.
