Okay. Now I see what it is, even on the previous picture 
And I see one small detail. I see a tiny border at the very rear end of the spoiler. It lifts the spoiler edge above the hatch making a little gap. My question would rather be addressed to your fitters. Would it be possible to glue the spoiler a little further to the front of the car putting the edge of the spoiler inside the crack between the roof and the hatch? This way the rest of the spoiler body would lay flat on the hatch without the gap. I realise it would require some modification. How hard or soft is the spoiler plastic? Would it be possible to file or cut it?

Yes it's possible to do some trimming with the material. As they say it's ABS so it could handle some abuse, but im not so sure if the fitting will be as symetrical. It will demand an expert that has done such modifications before in my opinion. I pushed it from the back as I could onto the old ''spoiler'' ( basically the metal of the back door ).
Hope I helped.....and wish it won't go off above 240km/h.....

It shouldn't go off if it was glued with some quality glue. Fingers are crossed
I have a question regarding your headlights. You and I ride European cars (you are in Greece?). Am I right? I was involved in an accident last week and my car needs some new parts (a wing, a hood, a bumper, a headlight, etc.) I decided to convert to bi-xenon headlights and a s-line bumper as I had to replace them anyway. But I have troubles to choose the right headlights. I need ones with automatic levelling but without curve light functionality. Is this the type of a headlight that you got for your car? Would you mind sharing the part numbers for both left and right headlight?

If you are looking for the right type of headlight you should take off the broken one and with its code you should order the ones you need original or not.
You should take into consideration when you order the headlights that you should request the right handed version.

Perhaps I express myself wrong I'm searching for the right OEM part numbers for the headlights. The numbers are located on top of the headlights like on a picture below. The UK and European cars have different headlights and they aren't interchangeable. You have the same headlight as I need, that's why I asked you about the OEM part numbers. On the picture below you can see that this headlight has a part number of 8P0 941 004 BE. What part number is written on yours?

Did you have to buy anything else to fit these headlights other than the headlights only?

Just a few of my black s.line
Changed DRLs for LEDs added heko wind deflectors . Headlight bulbs changed for nightbreakers . not sure about them though not white enough for me .
Interior lights swapped for LEDs .LED number plate lights..
Astray delete done.
Footwell/puddle and warning lights installed. Just need them activating .
Paint needs a bit of attention here and there . Few stone chips on bonnet and front bumper and a bit of lacquer peel.
Going in for a full detail and paint repair when i get the cash together.
cheers

I've done this too: LED DRL, nightbreakers (not white enough for me too), interior & numberplate LEDs. Now I'm changing to bi-xenons and s-line bumper (scared to think of a coming bill).
BTW, speaking on the lights activation. My last and biggest mode so far was an interior swap from SE to S-line with S3 door cards. The new door cards have the puddle lights installed, but they don't work. Should I activate them only or they require extra wiring?

Looks stunning in stealth mode
Can you tell more of the film? What film is it (link)? How did you put it inside? I mean how did you disassembly the headlight? I didn't know it was possible. I'm in process of upgrading to bi-xenon and new headlights is still in the box, so I think I have a good possibility to tint them before installation. But using the right film is important.Also, what film did you use for the rear lights?

It's just Lamin-X mate, nothing special, just a film you stick on the outside of the lights

I've heard of the Lamin-x. I also read that lamin-x can damage the headlight (I saw pictures of spiderweb cracks). But @Audi-Power said he had film inside the headlight.

Never heard of putting film on the inside, seems like a lot of time and effort just to smoke your lights just to find after sealing them back up and testing that there too dark and don't let enough light through.
Is it the same colour or does yours have a slightly darker shade. Lovely looking car you have there mate

Think it maybe, just mines taken on an over caste day.
The difference on a sunny or cloudy day is mad.
Thanks mate!
