Hey J, just bought this, waiting for warmer weather before install But my car is waxed & ceramic coated. Is mineral spirit prep all i need or do you recommend further prep , thanks as always for the content and info. U r THE go to guy for my Q fiddy.
I have the OEM spoiler on mine. I want to put on a different spoiler but the OEM one is bolted on and the holes wouldn’t be covered up with the one I want. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Depending on the color of he car, people have used "plastic" dowels to fill spoiler holes. Color-matched bumper plugs have been used, but those are noticeable on a decklid. I'm sure there are videos showing ideas.
Seeing as how I was the car by hand and never take vehicles through automatic washes, it handles them pretty well haha. But seriously, if proper prep is done and tape is applied correctly, it should not come off in an automatic car wash
I do recall a q50 video where the guy said he “wasnt a fan” 😂. Im looking everywhere for the same style you have. But all the ones i see are either simple flat lips or huge wings....gggrrrr. Love your stuff though bro. 👍🏻
Mike Gar the seller said more are coming soon! I think there is another seller with them available but they are coming from China and are like $225 after shipping.
I always suggest to let it sit for a couple of hours before driving. Try to keep it out of rain for 24 hours. If you install during the winter months, I’d suggest keeping it in the garage as long as possible up to 24 hours. I mean a couple hours in a warm garage should be good enough in cold temps, but if you have the time use it.
It’s out of stock on eBay, but the seller will have more very soon I am told. @vgqcarbonfiber on IG sells something similar. Let them know who sent ya!
Great video. Quick question, I got my spoiler and I have the tape on order. Is the tape strong to hold through a car wash or do you do a hand wash? I'm just curious before I install. Thanks!
OK Kool but y 35 in the rear and 40 front.... I got a 2014 255/35/20 front and 40 rear keep gettin that message. Do you no if this will hit the engine or tranny.

No it really shouldn’t. Just make sure the paint is clean and free of debris before you install and if you choose to remove it later, take your time and be careful.
@Speed Culture Studios a Awesome Thank you! Just picked up a 2018 Q50 with only 61k on it the other day. Wanna make it my own. But don't know what spoiler to get yet. Last Question to remove you just gently pry it off with your hands as you did in the previous video? Or would you recommend putting something under the spoiler such as a card of some sort to loosen the adhesive? Appreciate the helpful info in advance
MAN seeing that 335i in the driveway hit me right in the feels! Links for the spoiler have been updated as of November 22, 2021!!
What happened to it?

Yep talked about that in the video. May do ceramic for a temporary solution, but will likely do clear film
Definitely gotta do a shoot with both our cars now that you added the duckbill 🙌🏻
Yesterday was delivery day for me....got my remark muffler delete in for the Q50
Get that thing installed!
Speed Culture Studios getting installed today after work. Will be posting a before and after video on Instagram. Will try do upload it on here also
I got damage on my trunk right at the rim where the spoiler will sit do you think the duckbill can cover it up?
It covers more area than most spoilers.
It looks great, it will be my next move.... Thank you!
Thanks a lot! I really like it
I got the same type of spoiler off Amazon would you say use the 3m tape it came with or buy new tape
I bought my own tape. Can’t trust what they supply! Prep is key though

Still a great choice. More and more horror stories popping up about the 3.0t
Speed Culture Studios thanks for the advice. Got the car last week and loving it.
Soo what did you end up getting
That looks really good. I wonder how it would look on my white Q50.
I’m sure it would look fantastic!
Im looking to get a new spoiler but my Q has the OEM spoiler on it :( I believe it leaves holes in the trunk if removed.
You are correct.
Just ordered some z1 test pipes and rear spoiler hydro dipped in carbon fiber and front lip hydro dipped also plus a few other things.
Awesome
@@SpeedCultureStudios question do you know what would be a good mid section y pipe replacement for after market? Not the y pipe to the test pipes but the one that connects the muffler.
Dakota Cazares I don’t. They are all very expensive to the point where you might as well just buy a new catback or go custom.
You think this kind of spoiler would fit on the Infiniti m56?? 🤔
I think the decklids are quite different, so I would imagine not.
How well would this do against a car wash etc?. Do you recommend drilling it in?
If prepped and taped properly it’ll hold just fine
No sane person should out their car through a car wash take to somewhere it done by hand or do it yourself
Will this wing cover up the holes that redsport wings have drilled in to there trunks?
Bro ive looked and looked and no one ever answers this question lmao , and i cant seem to find any vids where they remove the oem red sport one
Love the content 🔥🔥🔥
Really appreciate that!
how is it holding up? Does the tape work well?
Held up great. That tape is excellent. If surface is prepped well, it won’t come off
Just received the first option and it doesn't flat even on my q50. You think with the 3m tape it will hold it down or return? I have about an 1/8 " gap
Make sure you have it lined up properly. If it still doesn’t fit, I would return it personally
@@SpeedCultureStudios thanks man, just test fitted one last time. And yeah I'm just going to return it. Great video BTW
Think 3m tape will last through the automatic car wash? About to install one of these this weekend.
Yes it should. Prep the surfaces well and it’ll hold

Hey man would this spoiler fit a 2019 q50 luxe?
As someone with Q50 without the spoiler the animation is very accurate lol. Does the spoiler only come in carbon fiber?
This only comes in cf unfortunately.
I bought a spoiler from amazon that said it fit all q50 models but it's an inch too big. Anyone have a link to one that will fit a 2015 q50 premium
Great job, well done.
Thank you very much!
Does the tape mess up the paint of the car when you remove it ??
No not if you remove it properly.
Over time will you have to replace the tape?
Shouldn’t have to
Do I need to screw it down or can I just use the tape that came with it ?
No screws needed
what kind of 3m tape did you use for the spoiler I jus bought it
It's just 3m 1/2" double sided tape like you would find at home depot.

do you know where I could get one of these spoilers the link no longer works sadly, or if you know what brand it is? thanks in advance!
They’ve been going in and out of stock. Check @jaliscos_carbonfiber on IG. I believe he had some coming available
How are car washes with that spoiler
Seeing as how I was the car by hand and never take vehicles through automatic washes, it handles them pretty well haha. But seriously, if proper prep is done and tape is applied correctly, it should not come off in an automatic car wash
Was that an original OEM you removed?
No, it was after market, but was sort of an oem style, low profile spoiler.
Would I still be able to go to the car wash?
Yes
