So, feeling unsatisfied by my rubber spoiler I ordered a new one last week. It looked real shitty and bubbly. I should have consulted the board first, but i thought how could I go wrong. Besides, Mike said it would be perfect. ![]() Website I bought it from. I mounted it on my car tonight. It looks awesome. I will post pictures of it tomorrow (I promise). You have to see it in the light in order to do it justice. |

Shot man , it adds like 1000000000000000 Horsepower in just downforce. How could you not want spoilers designed like that. In all seriousness tho , it worked nice , and with 4 holes mounted perfectly. Total time to install was 30 mins , Total time of enjoyment , about forever! So much downforce the car is now glued to the road.

99.9 % Serious. (nothing can really ever be 100%) One surprise I left out, that you will see in the pictures tomorrow. Lets just say it has something to do with an additional spoiler being mounted elsewhere on the car.
Look Good??? I think epic would be the more appropriate adjective to describe the awesomeness of this spoiler If anyone wants, me and mike will mount it on your third gen for the cost of the spoiler plus pizza. Just send me the money PayPal and we will set up a time and date. (PM if interested) UPDATE: I just pulled a wheelie down Deer Park Ave. This spoiler is sweet. Anyone know how much new suspension costs

Watch out Alex. Mikes coming in armed with Krylon Spray paint. ![]() ![]() An no, i did not get the rice wing, nor did i pop a wheelie on dpa and Fcuk up my suspension. Note: When removing a formula spoiler the clips are weleded on. I used a dremel to cut part of them off. Also, the forumla spoiler I have is free. It will go in the trash later this week. Its pretty much garbage, but, if you really want it, be my guest. Thing is heavy as shit (for a spoiler at least). |

It doesn't matter. Glens car already cheats on him with his wife's truck (the one that backed into it). |

Looks almost EXACTLY like the giant spoiler I pulled off of my 89 Formula 350 a few weeks ago Not a fan of it on my bird, which is red. I thought it looked too "ricey", but it's personal preference, and it might actually look pretty sweet on a black car |
