Im going to guess bolted.. With the force that will be pulling on it, I dont think glue or anything would help.. I think it would be a fun lil projet though. I might also look into this.. cause ive been wanting one, but not wanting to spend money on it.
How exactly do you plan on starting this.. like making a modle out of cardboard or somthing? This post has been edited by Digndoug: Jul 30, 2004 - 9:35 PM |

It all depends on how you go about making it.. If possible, I would say make it hollow. It would be pretty heavy if it were solid, depending on how you thick you made it as well. I would say make it about an inch thick, an make it hollow, but that would take some working with, to do that. Ive never made anything really like this , so im not really sure.

That turned out about like my fiberglass back seat area. I just kinda decided it would be way too much work and too much $ spent on supplies, so I gave up after spending 3 days working on it.

you are worthless contribution to this site aside from that - I love roof spoilers. I love everything about them except their price tags. If a glass worker can make something priced resonable, I'd be down with it on the spot. Sorry to hear you couldn't get it to work out. Maybe if one of us buys the actual booster tuning spoiler, that person can make a replica of it and sell it to our 6gc buddies. I might due something like this if nothing arises within the next half-year. Doug - hahahhahaa that was great |
