Rear Window Spoiler flew off on the highway :(((

man, i'm so ***ed off right now!!! i was driving home for lunch today from work, i never go home because it's a 35 min. drive for me well i had to get something from the house and i figured if i drive a little faster i'll make it in time...i'm doin' about 85 on the highway and i look in my rear view mirror and see my spoiler flyin'...i just bought the damn thing a couple of weeks ago...anyways i was in the left lane and it flew and stopped by the divider and no one ran it over...i didn't have time to make a u-turn but on my way home i hope it's still there and in one piece...i'll keep you updated...thanks had to get this out of me

How was it secured? Double sided tape?

I had the same problem when I used to have eyelids, they always ripped off, then I realized they were ugly and I got rid of them for good....

I never understood why people have them. NO offense or anything, but it just doesn't look good on a max

i like how it looks, by the time u go back to get it it probably blew away somewhere else, but hopefully if you do find it, it'll still be in one piece, how much do they run for anyways

Maybe the Maxima rejected it. What does it look good on?

Actually, I have not seen a vehicle that I like it on as of yet. I am not hating on you, Maxedoutofcash, but it's just not my style. I do however, feel sorry for you that this happened. It's like giving away money that you need!

The rear spoiler is made out of the same plastic, kind of like the same stuff vent visor are made of. I'm not sure what happened to your spoiler, but I've had mine up to 120 before, and it hasn't flown off.
