I would just make sure its made of urethane and not fiber glass. I heard of someone shutting their trunk with the spoiler and breaking it.

regardless of what it is made of that's a stupid idea to use your spoiler to shut the trunk/hatch.

Is it from someone on the forum? I'm sure the people in here would be willing to check it out for you.

haha yeah I NEVER pushed down on my GS-R wing to close my hatch.

And since I got my car painted and dents repaired (there were quite a few small dents around the middle of the hatch, under the wing), I don't even push down on the metal anymore. I always press down on the rubber strip at the base of the rear glass to close the hatch.
