Hi, i see you have your spoiler from Japan, I was told you had ordered it a couple of months ago

where you have filled it in the middle is that because of a defect?



Hi :genius:

Yes the spoiler doesn't fit properly and it need many hours of work to give correct fitment, please look:

If you pay atention on that effect on the center there is some kind of wave, it's not good looking and aerodinamics can be afected.
you can see it on the third foto in this topic...

My body worker and craftsman is not a fibre specialist so we adapt the spoiler to fit with some heat and we reinforce it in the back as you can see in the last foto of my last post we also mold the front metal sheet so there is not much fill.
The spoiler is not finished yet and may seem worse than it really is, but i think it will be good.

Ideas are welcome, please share your opinion mate...

 

Where did you get this kind of front spoiler? i am also looking to fit one on my 1275gt but most companys are selling those big lumpy ones.. i rather prefer extra labour and have this kind of spoiler. please let me know someting here or on my email wich is [email protected]. thanks in advance Yannick

Bloody hell this is an old topic. I would be interested to find out if anyone started remaking this spoilers though.

Na thats the ST one, If you looks round the subframe bolts holes you can see how different they are, thats really thinks and goes higher up the front panel then the ones on the above clubbys

I've been looking for one of these myself. I'm think of making one from a mk1 escort
