Spoiler fillet

[inovermyhead]

Just sharing some photos of my spoiler upgrade and thought I would shape with the rest of the group
I thought the gap between the spoiler and the body looked weak and unresolved so fabbed up a little fillet to fill the gap. Easy to do, mocked it up in card first and then a few layers of glass and finally a little body filler to finish, I also think it makes the spoiler stronger with both the sides attached.You don’t really notice it’s there when the wheels are straight but I think without my eye would have been drawn to the gap.

That looks really good! Something to consider next time my spoiler needs repainting, thanks!

Nice mod. I’ll keep it in mind when I eventually get around to fitting my air dam

Sorry Rob,
Don’t have a picture of before but anyone who has a similar spoiler should be able to post a shot.

Outstanding. Not flimsy looking...Oddly, it reminds me of the wrap of the bodywork on the Lemans 917 Porsches (Steve McQueen movie era..) The bodies on those cars always looked moulded, rather than like thin sheetmetal. Nice job.
