I have sent you a couple of pm's asking if you are willing to ship. I haven't heard a response from you so I am guessing you already sold the oil caps.

Yes, had it on my STI for about 5 months. My car is garaged kept and is not my daily driver, so the vortex generator is in pristine condition (look like new). Can't find any scratches or cf deformity. Seibon makes quality cf and is clear coated.

Did not come w/ adhesive when bought,
I used the 3m heavy duty double sided outdoor tape, recommended. Adhesive, when first put on seems not to strong. Just apply double sided tape on the vortex generator. Adhere to roof surfaces and push hard down, do not move side to side. After a little time sticks really strong. Good thing about it is when need to remove tape does not scratch or damage roof. Home Depot has it. Beware, the more tape you put on the harder to take off.

As for the idea behind the vortex generator, it funnels the air through the winglets down to your trunk. Nature's way would be when a strong Kona wind hits the windward side and funnel down the Koolau mountain ridges. It increases the force of the air by being funneled.
