can't wait to see them on mate, are you going to spray the raiser blocks black on match them red? im going for the same look aswell although having to drill more holes and reshave the existing 3-post wing holes seems to be abit much for me only time and money will tell hehe.. good luck... just a question does the 2-post wing cover the existing 3-post wing holes at all? i know the pics show they don't but is it very obvious? -R

I'm painting everything red. And with the 3-post spoiler stock you have to shave the middle and the one hole and each side also have to drill an extra hole on each side for the other bolt.
Did anyone else have a gap in the inside part, where the block and spoiler connect? This post has been edited by celiracer: Apr 23, 2006 - 7:56 PM -------------------- ![]() |

did you drill a new hole on each side?
for my car, i didnt shave any of the holes. i just usde black caps to cover them up. it came out looking good. the only hard part was cleaning off that glue that used to be on there. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

Well first off my cars getting re-painted so im shaving the holes that are needed to be shaved plus the sprayer nozzle, and antenna.
I didn't drill the second hole yet. I just put the bold on the back side and put the spoiler on top of it. Just to see how it looked and everything. going to drill the hole and stuff right before it goes into the shop. -------------------- ![]() |

Thanks for the info Lagos. but did you have that gap problem like my 1st pic? and where would i put the bondo? on the block to try and get it to go farther to the wing? or just put the screws in to hope it closes?

there shouldnt be any gaps. did u cut off the little part that sticks out on the oem spoiler? you have to cut that off for it to sit flush with the blocks. then use some doubble sided tape, and some screws to hold it all in place

They should fit with out a gap if Doggy made them. Bolt the blocks to the spoiler, then fit the whole thing to the car.

On the spoiler inside there they go on the blocks - there are 2 small pins, you have to cut them out and flush the surface or otherway you will have the gaps like you do now. BTW, i tested these blocks on my SSIII before sending them to you and they there perfect fit. Remove the spoiler off the cer, place it on upside down - and then try to add the blocks to it and take a look what is getting in a way to lay them flush.

Doggy i know its not the blocks i bot the 2-post from a company on e-bay it was a replica 2-post so i know i gotta do some work to the wing itself. But when i put the blocks on the wing then put the blocks on the car i think it might fix it.
I don't have the 2 pins on each side of the wing. This post has been edited by celiracer: Apr 27, 2006 - 12:21 PM -------------------- ![]() |
