Spoiler/Wing for FD without drilling holes
Spoiler/Wing for FD without drilling holes
Are there any wings or really any aero available that use the stock pre-99 spoiler holes? I've been looking at the panspeed wing but I cannot even begin to bring myself to drill holes in my low mileage '92 Efini. Any other options or suggestions?
Maybe the Mazdaspeed wing? You could probably put a ton of double sided tape on that wing since it has a large contact area, but even then, I'd still secure it by drilling holes through my hatch lol. Or.. you could just purchase a second hatch just to do whatever with. I've honestly toyed with the idea of having a hatch with a GT Spoiler on it, and then a wingless hatch for street use, but it just seems like such a hassle so I've never bothered.
Theorie made an awesome no drilling required track wing but I am not sure if thats what you are looking for also does not appear to be available.

Don't know if it's really available new any more. I've seen them every now and again on Ebay.
My car is an R2 and it bolted right up to the stock spoiler holes, no weirdness, just bolted right on perfectly.
Same shape as a stock spoiler just bigger. Many people have seen it then did a double-take - "is that a stock spoiler?". I really dig it, looks good and clean just a little "extra" to it.

Nope, it uses all 8 mounting holes. I've uninstalled/reinstalled it a number of times to know for sure
.
I did have to re-paint my rear hatch since the old spoiler rubbed the paint away at the edges and this spoiler covers different parts of the hatch. If the paint was mint this spoiler is a simple bolt-on process.
BTW, since this is an info dump, the spoiler has an RE-Amemiya logo cast into the fiberglass on the underside middle. It also had I think 2 studs to help install it. The hardware when I got it was long gone so I used metric stainless hardware. All the bolts go into riv-nuts on the spoiler. The gaskets between the spoiler and car are different than stock so I made my own from rubber gasket material from a local gasket shop and used a little black RTV to insure they sealed around the bolt holes.
Of course now everyone has a ton of info on a probably out-of-production and hard to source spoiler. Yay internet!

Feed type 2 uses the factory two outer holes. The two inner need to be filled in.
99+ spoilers use all the factory holes.
Mazdaspeed uses the outer holes like the Feed type 2 but also covers the whole deck. No need to fill in the inner holes.
