I think John did a good job of blending all of our style preferences. Idk if there are more pics to be had as of now, but I'll post as soon as I get some from John...You should get on this, all the cool kids are doing it.

For those who are itching in anticipation for this, let me contribute to your itch. Here's a picture of the CF duckbill on my car. This is the prototype that had minor fitment issues (we're talking tiny gaps of a few mm's) that John had to iron out. We threw this on my car because he is using my stock spoiler to make sure the fitment is spot-on for the production spoiler.
...and here's another that I just took:

Agreed... I was hoping it'd be a bit more stout. Not exactly too sure how I feel about it yet.

Not to sound needy but, can you take pictures at normal height? In all but the close up picture you seem like your kneeling looking slightly up.
I want to know what it looks like, looking at it. Not kneeling looking up.
I'm sorry if your actually 4 feet tall. That would be awkward.

Your pictures are helping us. Keep them coming, but at more angles please! (ie above and level)

It might could be a little bit larger, but that can get a kind of goofy looking. I think it's noticeable though, as my eye caught it right away, whereas some of the duckbills I've seen in the past were not as raked, and the sides didn't come down as much. This is an improvement for sure.

Well John said 2-3 produced and shipped per week hopefully. Count down from the list once we start shipping and I guess that's your answer.

Glad everyone who is a member of the group buy is happy. Remember this design is a compromise of our styles so John did exactly what we asked of him. For those of you who have joined more recently flip through the pgs and you'll see what I'm talking about.
All in all, we have the first readily available duckbill for the GE8 that fits the OEM mounting points. Mission accomplished! Enjoy it guys and let me know if you have any trouble or concerns along the way.

Well he's making the first final product this week. Assuming that goes well the mold is made so it should begin soon.

Pretty sure it won't fit otherwise we would be using the Spoon spoiler for the GD3 on ours. Speaking of which there are several duckbills out for the GD3, you just need to do some research. If you don't like any of the options you can contact JDP yourself and organize a group buy like I did. Sorry but I'm only running this specific group buy for the GE8 spoiler...hope that helps!
