Are there any good aftermarket roof spoilers on the open/ebay market..

Its proving hard to get an oem spoiler...

Photos and links appreciated...

Update... finally got an OEM and got it fitted...

try a few breakers mate, im sure you probably have but it took me three months to get mine, the genuine ones are far better as they are three piece and metal so they dont droop like some aftermarket versions.

Hold for the OEM item mate. With the amount that get broken on here in the traders section you must be able to get one

i got mine from a car being broken on here, just got lucky i guess but the oem ones are by far the best fit and quality.

Scooby world 3 piece is closet to oem. But still needs work.

I picked mine up for £155 delivered, it was in brilliant condition and was made even better by Ryan (Prodriverules) repainting and fitting it for me.





There are bargains out there, it's just a matter of being lucky and finding them.

it took me ages, so much so i considered a non oem one but never seen one anywhere near the quality of the oem ones.

Cannon and tommy could you please measure the roof spoiler as I have an after market one on my 60 plate saloon and I'm not keen on the finish so was thinking if a earlier one from a hawk would fit then I might keep my eye out.

If you could get the Id so I can see if it is wide enough to span the glass on the newer saloons that would be a big help

Cheers

I can't at the moment sorry, my car is down at Enginetuner - I am sure Tubby wouldn't mind if you contact him.

where do you want the measurements from, i'll do it in the morning but i have a feeling the new saloon is a fair bit wider.

the genuine one also sits on the contours of the pillar so i seriously doubt it would sit flush on anything else.
also if you look at the pictures above the spoiler is also curved to the exact shape of the car above the window

Well it arrived this morning.... OEM roof spoiler..... from Malta...

£140.... i think a bargain.


Q. Whats the best way to fit it right??

tubbytommy

iTrader: (20)

I used rivnuts.

this way all you need to do is drill two holes and insert the rivnuts with the tool then there is no need to remove any trim on the inside of the car.

I think this is how they are fitted in the factory too.

tiger seal, had no issues at speed with my one

not sure this would hold on a genuine one as they are metal and not really very light like the one piece non oem ones.

Yea on a real carbon one it works well, not sure I would call tiger seal a normal glue!

It's hard core
