Hopefully someone can provide some ideas here. Christmas eve, somoene (somehow) broke off the bit of the spoiler on my car that overhands the passenger side rear fender. I've got no idea whether it was an accident or what, but there it is. The piece broken off also seems to have left us for better places as well. [:@]

Question is, other than going to the dealer, anyone have any ideas on how to get a replacement? I see the ones on ebay, but I'm not sure they use the factory mounting brackets. Also, I don't know of any breaker yards that I could check with.

Anyone have ideas?

 

Don't you know how to replace the spoilers yourself? Well I've researched about how to replace a broken spoiler to help you save money... Not all the time you should depend on mechanics...

1. Lift up the back of your car using a jack stand and then locate the connectors of the front spoilers which is the black piece of plastic that's mounted to the underside of the rear bumper. Unbolt the spoiler from the bumper with the 3/8-inch ratchet and socket and pull the spoiler away.

2. Lift the replacement spoiler up to the bumper. Install the stock hardware on the spoiler with the 3/8-inch ratchet and socket. Lower the car off of the jack stands using the jack.
See.. that's a simple thing to do... you can do it man....

 

yes

 

Joseph are you just down the road from me? Millbrook, NY About 15 minutes from Poughkepsie. Clnilson, check Jaguar Heaven and Coventry West for salvaged replacement spoiler.

 

joseph, a couple of things:

1) the op posted this question a year and a half ago.
2) op was refering to the rear spoiler
3) welcome to the forums!!

 

^ heh....Rick I can't believe you are even awake enough to notice that stuff.

Joseph I would also remove your actual house number and street name from your "Location" settings in your profile. General location at the city/town/State level would suffice.

 

Chris after resetting the MPG and avg. speed etc... before leaving the show. We averaged 70 MPH (nice spirited drive back ). I had a couple of mellow out beers after getting home and I got to bed around 11:45 and up at 5:45 thanks to my 2 year old.

All is good!

 

Wow Rick that is really good time!!
