Announcing Group Purchase pricing on Blaine Fab's Lexan rear spoiler: The spoiler replaces the OEM spoiler for approx 7# weight saving. All hardware is stainless steel and aluminum. Angle of spoiler is adjustable from approx straight up to approx 45deg layback. Adjustment is accomplished without use of tools. The spoiler is mounted by drilling 10 holes thru the rear of the decklid, and bolting it on. The RR version has been proven on ITE, AI and CMC cars.

Jon - Thanks for painting the patches - I punch them out of teflon coated fiberglass tape, and assumed that paint would not stick. How did you prep them for paint?

Rob - Ya, the coated Lexan is pretty pricey, and shipping is expensive too. UPS also managed to get something sharp thru 2 layers of cardboard and gouge the piece, leaving me with 1 spoiler worth of scrap.

Rob - I think standard auto tint on the spoiler would reflect light and appear opaque, much like what you would see if you look at a tinted hatch from the rear. Shields does offer a bronze tint on some pieces, but all sanctions that I know of prohibit tint front and rear so I would not recommend it for the spoiler, 'cept mebbe on an autocross car.

What you all will find is that the spoiler sucks up a layer of dust and grit on the backside - Use a recommended cleaner: http://racingshields.com/index_files/care.htm and rinse with lots of water. Never rub it dry. If you remove the Lexan panel from the brackets to clean it, do not overtighten the screws when replacing - just snug and then back off 1/8 turn.

Uhm...oops. I did uhmmm....nothing. I guess we'll see how long it sticks! (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I just layed them on a piece of paper, shot them with a coat of primer, a couple coats of color and two coats of clear (I just repainted my fender yet again so I had the stuff on hand). It seemed to stick well, when peeling the backing off and sticking them on, while I tried not to, I did bend them around a bunch and the paint didn't seem to budge. I guess we'll see how long it sticks. They're pretty little, it wouldn't be difficult to paint a new set once a season if need be.
