A few of us were having fun and got "spanked" for adding something like this. Again just a heads up.
Woops sorry I was not aware of this. If there is a problem with it I'll remove it. Just bringing a little humor to the thread.

Oh and enthusiast started this thread after another was locked

Back to the OP, I had added the rear spoiler (mina gallery) to Joyces Jag, not trying to make it an "R" but IMHO makes the vehicle a bit more sporty.

Joyce and I are old school we like shiny mirror stuff. So painting the $300.00 worth of added chrome.......outta 'da (<-- "the" for John ) question!


Joyces Jag has a touch over 55k on the ticker.

We are heading to Disney in Feb., no waiting for hours in lines! If you are taking I-77 south, do stop in and say hey. We are under 4 minutes from exit 88.

God, I had forgotten about that thread. Hideous! I agree with Rick. A little wing (not the ridiculous crap we see on ricers these days) looks great and a little sporty.

X2 on that Enthusiast. Sorry Rick, when reading your avatar 130 caught my eye, not the 55 preceeding it. Ya see what three heavily rummed egg noggs can do to ya? Very kind of ya to invite us to stop in on way to Fla., we're flying though... Perhaps I can still "drop" in when passing over I 77? Scary!

Anyone got any pics of one in carbon fiber. I wonder what an STR would look like with the spoiler and the bottom diffuser wrapped in carbon. Just curious.

That looks like scaffolding. Like something you would put up to clean the windows on the second story of your house.

Forget CF, since we already have wood trim, let's get a nice wooden spoiler on the back.

I dont know if thats a good idea, I mean its your car you do what pleases you but come on, ITS A STR. Its like saying let me remove my supercharger see how that works. Itll look more like a basic model s type. But again, thats my opinion.

I have an extra spoiler in the garage that came of my 04 STR - it seems there are a few clips that snap into a rectangular hole in the lid for locating but its mostly held on with double side tape that goes along the entire perimeter. I'll try to snap a few pictures in the morning.
