I bought an GT-Four spoiler and SSS-III raiser blocks cheap from local parts site and today we tried to bolt it on my JDM GT-Four. Raiser blocks come about 1,5cm's over the edges of tailgate from both sides and didn't fit well. Is there different raiser blocks for JDM and EU versions because of different shaped tailgates?

Actually, there is a difference between Euro and JDM spoilers and riser blocks. There's no difference in the hatch, but some Euro models got spoilers with smaller bases, like so:


Picture comes compliments of Urputus.



After that, there's the difference between the taller, more angled blocks like the GT4/SS-III and the shorter, more flat Euro blocks:


^^ Those blocks fit the regular wing with the larger bases.

The only reason I can think of that your wing and blocks would be too wide is that the wing itself may have come from a coupe or convertible, not a liftback. If I recall correctly, the coupe/vert wings are a little wider than the liftback.
