After I installed the spoiler..my hatch doesn't seem to want to open when I pull the latch. it really hasn't bothered me much since I use the ghetto 'seatbelt pull' method. But I was just wondering if any of you who have heavy hatches have this hassle and if any of you found a fix for it.
Other than taking off the spoiler or getting new shocks. (my shocks were brand new when I got the new hatch and spoiler) Thanks, Malek -------------------- |

LOL You wanna talk about hatch problems... I broke the lever to lift mine, so I gotta bust out the key for it. GT4 spoiler makes it HEAVY! That thing will slam on you if you aren't careful, or if it is cold outside (somehow it affects the struts to hold it open).
