Pics of maxima's w/ Roof spoilers and things to look out for?

i have one and before getting it painted and all just want to see it on a few cars one more time to make sure its a good idea to have. I know a friend of mine had his fly off on the highway but how have the rest of u done with your roof spoilers. From pics i have seen, it was a great addition to the looks of the 4th gen but i need one more viewing to make sure its really worth it.

Also any recommendations with install and whatnot? the 3M tape is normally enough? feedback?

3M is enough. Mine was on there for some time before I took it off. The only time I got scared that it might fall off was when there was a 50 mph wind coming from behind me in a parking lot. But with 3M tape it should be fine

i have had mine on for over a year with no problems. make sure you wipe down the surfaces with rubbing alcohol first, it will make the 3m tape bond real good

I had Rob(Tilleys99) do my painting for me. I think all he did was just primer and paint it. As for price, not sure, I got it painted when I got my body kit done.
