Audi R8 Gen 2 (2015-2024) | Prepreg Dry Carbon Fiber GT Spoiler

Audi R8 Gen 2 (2015-2024) Prepreg Dry Carbon Fiber GT Spoiler

Engineered for Audi R8 Gen 2 (2015-2024) owners who demand racing-grade quality, this Prepreg Dry Carbon Fiber GT Spoiler brings the R8 GT-inspired tall, aggressive profile to the rear trunk line. Made to factory tolerances by leading manufacturers around the world and quality-controlled by BYC Performance, this Audi R8 carbon GT spoiler bonds directly to the OEM trunk surface: no cutting, no drilling, no modification required. The GT Spoiler is compatible with both pre-facelift (2015-2018) and post-facelift (2019-2024) Gen 2 models: trunk lid geometry did not change with the facelift.

If you're building a serious Audi R8 tuning project and want a part that channels the R8 GT RWD's aggressive aesthetic, this dry carbon GT Spoiler is the answer. Autoclave-cured prepreg carbon fiber delivers a noticeably lighter and stronger structure than wet-lay parts. Tuned to match the LMS racing DNA of the Gen 2 R8's 5.2L V10 FSI naturally-aspirated engine (V10 540 hp / V10 Plus 610 hp / V10 Performance 570-612 hp / R8 GT RWD 620 hp), the tall GT profile delivers visible aerodynamic benefit at high speed.

Key Features

• Prepreg (Dry) Carbon Technology: Pre-impregnated carbon plies cured in autoclave under high heat and pressure, homogeneous resin distribution, a more consistent weave.
• Tall GT Geometry: Inspired by the R8 GT, taller and more aggressive than the V Spoiler; adds a clear racing accent to the rear end.
• Aerodynamic Performance: Visible downforce gain at the rear axle at high speed; cleans rear-deck airflow.
• Significant Weight Savings: Noticeably lighter than the OEM plastic trunk spoiler.
• 2x2 Twill Carbon Weave: Authentic carbon fiber pattern with depth under a high-gloss UV-protective clear coat.
• Direct OEM Fit: Plug & play on factory Audi R8 Gen 2 trunk surface using pre-applied 3M VHB tape.
• UV & Chemical Protection: Long-life clear coat protects against fading, cracking, fuel splash, and road tar.

Prepreg (Dry) Carbon vs. Wet Carbon: Which Is Better?

Most aftermarket carbon parts are made using wet lay-up, where resin is hand-applied and room-temperature cured, leaving voids and inconsistent weight. Prepreg (dry) carbon:

• Cured in an autoclave under high heat and pressure → a more consistent weave
• A controlled resin ratio → lighter and stronger
• The production method widely chosen in motorsport
• Minimal UV fading over years of use

Installation Notes

Installing the Audi R8 GT Spoiler is an adhesive-mounted process on the trunk top edge. Professional installation is recommended:

1. Clean the trunk top edge with isopropyl alcohol and dry.
2. Mark the bonding line using a template (center-line reference).
3. Test-fit the spoiler for left/right alignment.
4. Peel the VHB protective liner and press firmly for full bond.
5. Avoid washing or pressure-washing for the first 48 hours.

Care & Maintenance

Wash with pH-neutral car shampoo. Apply carbon-safe sealant every 6 months. Keep pressure washer nozzle at least 30 cm from surface.

FAQ

Does this fit both pre- and post-facelift R8?
Yes. The GT Spoiler uses the same trunk-lid bonding surface on both Gen 2 versions; trunk geometry did not change with the 2019 facelift.

Is the GT Spoiler the same as the V Spoiler?
No. The GT Spoiler is a taller, more aggressive R8 GT-inspired profile; the V Spoiler is a lower lip-style design. Choose based on visual preference.

Compatible with the Audi R8 Spyder (Convertible)?
No. The GT Spoiler is for Coupé only, since it mounts on the trunk lid.

Compatible with Gen 1 (2006-2015)?
No. Gen 1 has completely different trunk size and geometry.

Compatible with the Lamborghini Huracán?
No. Despite shared platform, the Huracán has different trunk and rear-end geometry.

Is the adhesive strong enough?
Yes. The pre-applied 3M VHB industrial double-sided tape is automotive OEM grade; with proper surface prep it holds for years.

Shipping time?
In-stock items ship within 1-3 business days. Parts sourced to order are delivered within 30 days of the order date at the latest.
