Yes, it is attached to the exterior of the hatch with adhesive but the third brake light is screwed in just like the one you have now, the reason why it is such an expensive spoiler compared to others is that you have to attach the brake light as well. It comes with instructions on how to install it and the brake light is what keeps it in place, the adhesive tape is for extra support and so you dont scratch your hatch

while it's not a match to fiona's paint, i just wanted to share with you that OPI has a new shrek collection and this color is called fiercely fiona!



the green one, who the shrek are you, may be a closer match to your fiona's finish, if you added a sparkly topcoat. here's the rest! i want them all but as a nail polish collector i have a dupe to basically all of them, but i may pick up a few because the names are cute.

OMGosh that is WAYYY CUTE!!!!!! Too funny you thought of me though, I love it although lots of people say "I saw this the other day and reminded me of your bug" or close to that, very cool find though and you're right the Shrek one is definitely more "Fiona bug's" color but I also like the purple and blue ones, interesting set of colors I must say I would totally rock the Who the Shrek are you? polish for sure!!!

It is called a "kids" plate, not all states have license plates that can have characters on them, it is $2 extra per year to renew and part of my registration goes to abused and neglected children

it's official.... Your Fiona is in "icon" status

[mybugrocks]

hehe thats AWESOME!!!!! It really makes me laugh every time someone says that or "I saw a green bug the other day and it looked just like yours" I've even gotten a picture of one that looked like Fiona but was faded. People also remember me because of my car, I've heard people say "she's the one with the green bug right??" I love it my bug is awesome

Fiona is almost in Cup's league now jk Cup is like a legend but it's no wonder they were trouble makers together

[topless kitty]

lol, i think most beetles have that effect on people, but definitely being a fun rarer color helps. the people at the starbucks i go to every day now call me "miss chavo" and often make my coffee before i get inside. they'll say they saw the buggy come in, haha. this week one of the girls told me she saw me driving, music up, top down, and she was jealous. then the other girl said i live the life she wishes she had, lol.

[katiex10204]

I love your fiona!! she is too cute & cyber green is one of my absolute favorites.. right up there with yellow!!

[dnyed]

Love the plates! Heart came with it?

[CoriBug]

Nice cyber green-ish nail polish!! I love OPI's colors and the creative names.

I believe that the heart is a special children's plate that Casey requested.

[mloeks76]

hmmm i think i will look into one of those. it looks nice!

yeah i'm bad and buy a lot of them just for the names. seeing as i have hundreds of bottles of polish, i considered doing a post with the closest matches i could come up with to beetle paint colors. there's been a few shows i wore either OPI yoga-ta get this blue or russian navy, i'm still unsure which i think matches my galactic blue more. i still want to do the post, but i want to go off the real paint and not pictures to be as close as possible first.

That is too funny, there are a lot of people who know my car but I don't go to Starbucks often enough for them to know me but its okay

it's too cute and i'm spoiled..guess i'll start looking around

[mybugrocks]

haha so am I but shhhh hehe anywho, I have never seen the characters on other state plates so I have no clue if they can do it for those

Oh and another note about the nail polish, it reminds me of the color I got for the tips of my nails for ToyJam 2 years ago, LOVE IT

[Baby Sallie]

maybe i'll have to get it special maded

[mybugrocks]

maybe I think the heart and other special characters look really cute

Forgot to respond to this one I think that would be really cool, I will definitely look for that post. IMO the Who The Shrek Are You? is the perfect cyber green match but then again I may be a bit biased because of the name oh well hehe can't wait for that post

Fiona got new tint today 15 in the back 35 in the front, her old tint was 20 in the back and faded (can tell the difference more inside), 35 in the front and faded pretty bad (can tell the difference more inside), the passenger side had no tint because the window shattered, this is all courtesy of my lovely bf

Up next, new shoes and socks (tires)

These pics are ordered as follows, old tint-new tint, old tint-new tint etc. enjoy, I know I do.

Oh and the 2nd picture of the driver side the tint looks lighter because of the way the sun is hitting the window, the true color shows up better on the passenger side and man what a difference, you can TOTALLY tell when you are in the car
