What Spoiler Is This??
I'm wanting to buy a spoiler from someone I've emailed back and forth on CL about and I'm just curious as to what it is.
Is it an IMSA 3 piece original?
Or another spoiler?
What's up with the writing on it - as in, is that usual?
Thanks guys,
Austin

I have one that I think is original and externally it appears the same as yours, but underneath looks different. Yours is open underneath and mine is not. The ends of the center section are solid on mine and open on yours. Like I said I believe mine is original but I bought it so long ago (20 years?) that I cannot be sure.

Looks legit. The date is probably from a junkyard documenting the year of the car that it came off of. I have an original, and I'd say that if that one isn't original then it's at least close enough not to matter.

The "IMSA" 3 piece spoilers were sold by Mazda for street car use, not for actual IMSA racing. The actual IMSA spoilers were MUCH larger, and are one piece. I have one of those on my IMSA RX-7 GTU race car.
For a brief while, I believe they were used by some people in SCCA C-Production racing.

I know this is an old thread, but that is not a Mazda part. Its aftermarket. Its the exact same rear spoiler I have on my 83 LE....I installed it on the car in 85...Cant remember the manufacturers name, but it is not Mazda....good quality, good fit, but not factory.... One prob they all seem to have over time (including the one pictured) is the screw boss on the lower side of the 2 outboard pieces will crack and come aprt, letting the sides wobble....you can see whats left of the screw hole in the 5th picture...
