True Classic
Been playing with the fitment of the spoiler over the past several days - made support brackets
So I could bolt it up & check the side panels for fit. I had to dent the fenders...
.. to get the spoiler to align with the wheel arches. It was that, or cut off the fender below the crease line.
Added an extra brace to the lower rear corner on both sides
Had to trim/feather the upper edges of the spoiler to get it close to the existing fender crease - the spoiler has plenty of meat, so that was not an issue
The fit was better on the pass side, I was able to get it snug under the indicator relief panel & nicely wrapped around the corner to the wheel arch. On the driver's side, even with cutting some material, I was unable to get a tight fit under the indicator
fibreglass/filler will be needed to mate it with the body in that section
ran screws through into the fender to secure placement of the spoiler along the fender while the SEM Weldbond adhesive cures.
next step will be some filler to taper the fender/spoiler join nicely.
