Did you install it correctly? are any wires rubbing against metal and shorting out? is the new led the correct wattage? tapping into the wrong power source? Tried putting in a slightly bigger fuse? (kinda dangerous, i know) other then that... i am not sure... unless the led is defective...

i figured it out. the body shop that painted and installed the spoiler messedup. there was i little tile part of the wire touch the screw in the spoiler and it cause it to short.
but now its fixed but i droped 2 screws and a plastic cap in the trunk lid

Yay, i was correct!
