99 Spec Spoiler
Finally got it in today and put it together! This thing literally took me 15 minutes to unwrap, it was wrapped really really well.

I also got my Peter Farrell exhaust put on today. Got to the shop and said they were closing in a hour, 35 minutes and $3.50 later we had the exhaust on and we were outa there.

Well one time I went to the beach and I got some ice cream and some beer, and I drank all the beer and I ate all my ice cream, then I went back to my hotel room and went to sleep.

Got it painted but decided I wanted to leave the center flat black so I left it as it is as well as the caps on the sides. Going to test fit it in a bit after my buddy gets back.

The spoiler is adjustable. He has it set kind of neutral right now is what it looks like.

OEM is adjustable, VIS racing replica isn't. I don't know what brand his spoiler is or if it is adjustable but in neutral position it should be flat, 0 angle. Like I said maybe it is just me or the photography, maybe it is flat.....

The spoiler is 4 way adjustable. If I take it down a knotch or 2 it would be flat.

Negative, the VIS replica is adjustable, I know because I have one.

The difference is the VIS is only adjustable for 2 settings, one flat, one angled.

The OP's spoiler seems to be OEM since I doubt any replica would have that many adjustments.

On the other hand, one can easily just drill more holes into the spoiler to make it more adjustable.

wow you're like my identical twin on the east coast. I also have a red FD with the same black plugs in the hatch for the holes.

I also have a spoiler painted like yours (badly) that I need to get repainted and then I can mount it. I am super super picky with paint and it looks like yours needs a serious wet sanding.
