Are there any aftermarket FD spoilers like this?

Hi all,

I want to improve the downward force on the trail-end of my 95 FD. However, I am not fond of giant wings.

Here are two examples of the type of spoiler i want. Does anyone know of any sources for rear spoiler of similar design?

Thanks!




I'm not real fond of the clear spoiler's looks. But that is roughly what I'm going for.

Thanks for that link. It gives me something to think about. But I need something more functional. This is for road racing, not just to look good.

Although I would like it to look good. Haha. Maybe i just need to learn to autocad, and get it custom made.

I did find this pic in that thread though. It is from "top fuel"? I'm looking into it...



This picture just looks like so much fun...

Thanks Burton, good find!

Damn I wish the top fuel spoiler was available. The one you posted is nice, but I don't like how far back it sticks out. I'd rather it be a little steeper like the Top Fuel.

But that is exactly the sort of hidden product I'm trying to find. I wonder if there are any others out there... The attain might be the only choice, and I'm sure I'd have to wait a long time to get it.

Mytelex22 posted that already. That is more of a cosmetic piece.

Just another pic I found. looks like Top Fuel spoiler...



I know it looks like a viper, but it isn't. So that is what counts.

I think I remember a guy, a while back, trying to make and sell some more of these. He might know where to get one.
