rear boot spoolers
what rear boot spoiler shall i get as theres a few out there ? Pics please aswell would be lovley
My original thread
http://www.zroadster.net/forum/viewtopi ... ip+spoiler
If you do go for a spooler, then something subtle would suit best, I'm not keen on BMW's own aero spoiler or the Hamann which looks its a bit surf board
End of the day its what you like

Completely agree! Subtle is best if your going to do it, but it's your car at the end of the day.TitanTim wrote:If you do go for a spooler, then something subtle would suit best, I'm not keen on BMW's own aero spoiler or the Hamann which looks its a bit surf board

can i just point out something tho....
as a few of us have noticed the small mouth bumper types go light at the front end when you start to push them to the limit...........now i can only speak for myself but i would be very weary of putting a rear wing on and pushing the back down even harder and lifting the front end when trapping on a bit...just a thought

TBH tho when you get to the top speed with a small mouth that front end is bad enough without lifting it from the rear..........thats why iv put splitters on and they have made a big difference at speed

Pre or post facelift Z3 - why spoil an already perfect rear?

Mr TT - a small point if you don't mindTitanTim wrote:It doesn't spoil mine
You shouldn't say "it doesn't spoil mine" because I (and others) think it does
Matters such as this are expressions of aesthetic taste (or lack of it)
Rather than stated as a material fact, it would be better expressed as "I don't think it spoils mine"
This is not to criticise your Zed, it's yours to do with as you like but you must let others form their own opinions.
Then we can have a real pantomime
Oh no it doesn't
Oh yes it does etc etc

I think his comment is meant as a joke, it's not meant to be serious.
If you like them, get them! there's no right or wrong its your car, just as a note though don't go overboard with a picnic tray type, but something discreet or OEM would be good in my opinion. One of the best mods I've done to my Zed and no regrets.

You may think it was rubbish, I was actually being grammatically correct

oh.......my first job when the Zed comes out of storage is........
1) Remove the spooler......to please Mr T
2) To remove the AC Schnitzer Alloys........to please those that think 16" alloys are too large
3) Remove the god awfull chrome bits to please all those that think chrome on a Zed looks $hi77y
4) Buy a tin of Hammerite and paint it any colour except silver
5) Apply an M badge to Pi$$ everyone else off
Stand back and look at my handywork in the knowledge I have pleased all the fuddy duddy Z purists!!!!
I had a few more mods that I thought I would share but will keep them to myself now in the knowledge that for me I like em.

Your zed is coming out of hibernation this weekend isn't he
The only thing to do then is put some petrol in him and go for a drive...
ooo don't forget to put your new mats in and please wear the slippers I knitted for you
and you can't change the colour from silver or I'll have to knit you some more in your new colour
p.s. - it was nice to see you weren't going to change your knob

Seduced by the zed side
what i don't understand is the reason people have to post in a thread where simeon balsam asked which spoiler to get.... not if he should get one or not. if you don't like them and see them as spoiling your car then don't post on it. remember there are people on here that have added the spoiler and don't need people to come along taking the piss out of them. no wonder i stopped posting here!

I have an element of 'M-styling' on my car, If that's a good enough reason for the manufacturers to adorn a 320 with the M badge, then its certainly a good enough reason for me..
