anyone got a exige s2 rear spoiler fitted ,done a search and not found anything ,gonna change mine and want some ideas ,might go for a turbo one if anyone has one for sale

[A13X]

Its probably because its not worh the hassle of fitting one. The brackets on the spolier are miles off to fit the vx. (the spoiler is fitted to the sloping engine cover on the exige) And then you would have to find a way of fitting it so it wont get in the way when opening up to the boot. Would be a complete nightmare!!

B V Scubadaddy looked into it









Unless you mean the side mounted one like the GT3

[mandarinvx]

Oh, and if you do find a way of fitting it, please let me know!

[The Insider]

not quite what you wanted but it looks damn good.

That spoiler looks great in the mock up, why has it not been done ? Im sure its not that hard .....

[Winstar]

It would be useless. It's too low to get any airflow and even it did then all it would do is load the calm up as there's no easy way to transfer the load to the sub frame* *that the best case, worst case is it would cause fatigue cracks in the clam/bootlid.

physics and halfords now have a restraining order against each other and must remain atelast 100feet from one and other at all times.....

I have made up a wedge to put between the wing and the boot lid.
This is the positive mold for it
the wedge will be resin cast .

I will fit this at some point
I was going to use a a large bit of thick foam or poly to transfer the pressure through
the boot and onto the rear sub frame .

Basically I'm only doing this for a bit of a laugh

and to make my car even more Chavtastic when I go on track days .

yes but it would look good

[Sambo1]

I think this looks great and good luck with it. Make sure you keep the mould as i would love something like this on mine. That is something as i hate doing anything cosmetic to cars like the vx220 Sam

Does the steinmetz car not have a Exige s2 spoiler? although with different struts, just spotted it on the 'aftermarket lights' thread.



I used to quite like the front view of the steinmetz car, this pic has somewhat changed my mind.

Steinmetz is it trying to be an original Lotus Europa with that snorkel? Hideous colour too.

[jasvxt]

Don't think its so much the colour, its more the body kit that kills it

What where they thinking or sniffing at the time

Agreed, i pity anyone who has to drive that thing around

[The Insider]

Why do people insist on messing around with the VX?

[mcarrick69]

Is that a front grill cut into the rear clam?? Edit to add - the grill at the rear is the least of worries. The whole car is just shocking.
