Spoiler choice...

[AtomicRex]

Tony,

What are your fixings like on the rear?

Mine were attached straight to the rear tailgate, and there was so much flex in the ali that it was noticeable in the wing.....wobbled like a bugger out on track.....think it probably produced more drag than downforce!

[John_Hudson]

The picture i put up is a bit more subtler

waaa! thats my motor! *cough* Anyway here are a couple more pics i dug up for you of the spoiler from diff angles

im afraid im not sure what spoiler it is though.. i found it on ebay but it wasnt a buy it now so sod knows where they come from.

Aye, it mounts straight onto the tailgate - but - I can\'t run a large wing like that in the championship anyway so it\'ll have to stay off.

Have you got other shots of the wing, Tony? IE length and curvature. Will you be willing to sell it?

Cheers,
John

Stay small!

If you want to get better downforce do something with the top of the rear window, too tall and you just creating drag, and if you get it right you need to complement it with a front splitter so that you dont get huge amounts of understear.  Big wings have their place but your fuel economy and top speed will suffer because of it.

try using the google translation
