FYI, GM Parts Direct just put on auction on eBay today 32 spoilers (different colors available) for 2008 + Malibu. Starting price is $50 and $60.

Judging by the auction description, it looks as though it's just the latest body style only (2008-present).

My question is, they list ones called (dark grey metallic). I'm curious if that's really Taupe Grey Metallic?

Sweet! Thanks for the link. But do these tape on or bolt on? Don't see anything in the auction... anyone know?
Description on other GM sites said : ''one-piece, custom-molded Spoiler Kit with integrated attachments'' so I think it's bolt on. It probably come with detailed instructions and also a template. I bought one for a 2008 Buick Lacrosse and it was easy to install with the template and markers included.

You ordered or placed a bid?
He probably ordered or he will bid at the last second as there is only 1 bid on the 32 spoilers listed and it's for a red jewel one ! Probably everyone is waiting at the last second to bid.

At $50 - $60 with free shipping for an OEM painted spoiler, it's a ***** good deal !

I contacted this ebay seller today, asking how it mounts. Here's his reply -

We only sell bolt on spoilers. If you're preferring a tape on spoiler, unfortunately we can't help you.

Sorry!

Odd, the one I got looks the EXACT same. I mean you most likely could still mount that one with 3M tape. I have seen much larger ones mounted with tape.

Yep, that 3M stuff is permanent! I installed the talking backup sensors to my '09 bumper right over the paint. Went through I don't know how many car washes (touch type) and never moved a millimeter! When I removed them for trade-in the sticky was still on the paint and the inner core (foam, I think) separated from the sensors.

Permanent.
Period.

I'd mount it with 3M too and not even blink.

OK, my eyes would hurt, but you know what I mean! ;)
