Strosek Rear Spoiler ?

Has anyone here installed a Strosek rear wing (AV 52) on their car? I searched here for any posts but didn't see anything in the 986 forums...

I got one a few days ago for next to nothing and just wanted to know if anyone has had issues with them.

They look a little feeble around the mounting area... and I think after a few good bumps it could easily crack apart.

Anyone installed one? And if so do you have pictures of it on the car ( retracted, not up ).

Is that on a 986 ?

Looks completely different from mine. Mine hangs over the bumper more, and does not fit down on the to the lift arms as much.

I'm thinking of maybe just using this one to create my own mold and make it so it fits better and has more support.

Below are few pictures, and yes my car is dirty ( illegal to wash cars right now ) and who ever painted the spoiler "to match", looks like they used a buzz bomb. I'll need to get it repainted once I have my garage set back up.

Those are the same tail lights I have had since I got the car.

Been meaning to buy some newer ones, just not sure which way to go...

was watching your thread on the different styles to see which ones I wanted to get, because I cant stand the orange color on them.

Was that picture of the strosek you posted from a car you owned or just stock photos from somewhere?

trying to get some ideas on these things. I think I might make a few after I redo this one and make a mold from it and try sell if there is a market out there for them.

That's why Im going to just take this one and build it up like I want and make a mold from it, and make my own.

I used to high end auto body and custom work and boat building, so fiberglass is no stranger to me.

once I get the new one built I'll post pictures. If you want one I'll make an extra for you.

I'm going to make sure it has more support then the way it's made now that for **** sure.

I'll post over in your tail light thread once I get home from work. :)
