Default More Spoiler Info

Got a spoiler for my ride today and in my color. It came off a 1995 Bonnie. As you can see from the pics this one has 8 bolts instead of 6. Plan on installing it next week. If anyone is interested the part# is 25541195.


It looks like this one was produced on 10-30-94

Wouldn't it have been easier to get a another trunk with a spoiler?

I took my spoiler off the other day and man was it nasty under there. And it makes such a big difference in the looks, that'* for sure. Glad you found one.

But it would have cost more if he got a whole new trunk. He just has to have the holes drilled and then he'* all set.

Aviator, your entire car is in A-1 condition!!

And I have 8 bolts on mine too. I didn't think I had that many before I started to take it off.

On my 1994 SLE there are 8. I took it off last week to clean under it and decided to leave it off until after the races. It is now back on and boy does it make a difference in looks.
I noticed though that without the spoiler when I release the trunk it fly up so fast it almost goes too far and hits the rear windshield.
Make sure you post pics when you get your on, and when you are installing it don't drink too much beer -we don't want you misdrilling and holes.

You're right OldBlueEyes. The spoiler itself is so light, but it makes a difference when you pop the trunk open.

OlBlueEyes, I think a rum&coke will be part of the installation process.
