Does anyone know of any aluminum spoilers that will fit on the ti hatch? |  |  | | 09-25-2007, 02:24 PM | #2 | | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2006 Location: maritimes Posts: 1,433 |
just look for one with a base that doesn't stick out farther than the hatch shelf... alum spoiler are universal for the most part...
it will look horrible though, IMO __________________ 11/97 Base  328Ti

DONT do it!!
if you wanna get a spoiler at least get the az schnitzer replica they have on ebay! | | | | | 09-26-2007, 03:59 AM | #7 | | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: SoCal Posts: 305 |
Please reconsider. 95% of the aluminum spoilers on the market provide 0 performance value and once you reach the speed necessary to provide the slightest increase in down force the $.15 bolts used to install the spoiler will snap, strip, bust, etc.
Take the fore mentioned advice and look into an ac schnitzer or other reputable company. | | | | | 09-26-2007, 02:14 PM | #8 | | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: asdfasdf Posts: 10,002 |
I would but all of those spoilers are expensive as hell and I can't afford them. | | | | | 09-26-2007, 03:34 PM | #9 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2007 Location: Ferndale, MD Posts: 462 |
Man, you can pick up already painted ones for a little more than you would for a generic aluminium. OR, you could just get the Carbon fiber m5 style lip for around $100. please, anything would look better than the aluminum fried rice wing. | | | | | 09-26-2007, 03:36 PM | #10 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Saint Paul, MN Posts: 3,244 |

Why do you want a spoiler? If it is for looks, buy whatever you think will look good on your car.. It is your car after all. If you want it for actual function, well, a Ti doesn't need it on the street. | | | | | 09-27-2007, 04:30 PM | #13 | | Junior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: South Florida Posts: 16 |
