Default Perrin Stiffies

Hi all

Going to be fitting a pair tonight.

I believe I have an aftermarket spoiler as it does not have the holes in the underide of the top wing to bolt into.

Although the Perrin isnstructions say to drill and screw.

Could someone with just 2 fitted measure the gap between the two stiffies so I can mount theing in roughly the right place as per an OEM wing.

Cheers
CJS

438mm from the widest outside edge of the uprights, giving approx a 50cm gap between the stiffis.

measuring the gap between two holes on the underside of a genuine wing should be equally valid?

Not if it's covered up by a pair of stiffis

Probably a bit late now, but I had mine colour-coded and imo they look far better that way. (Never been one for CF bits either - unless the car's black ).

Cost me £75 including fitting (not lazy, just ham-fisted ).

I (obviously) think they add something, and they do stop the 'wing judder' that might annoy you (that you've never noticed before anyway )
