Thinking about molding my roof spoiler and JP wing to the car. Can the roof spoiler even be done? Planning on having the entire car repainted and I want to do it the right way. Anyone have pics??

 

I wouldnt mold the roof spoiler... It is supposed to go on the back glass...

 

yeah, negative on the roof spoiler unless it goes on the body. JP spoiler might be kind of nice, im sure someone has it done.

 

The most popular roof spoiler (UGO) here didn't go on the back glass at all...it was on the roof.

 

I wouldn't mold the roof spoiler. You can always buy a new trunk when you sell the car if you can't sell it as is. With the roof spoiler it would be much harder. I wouldn't buy a car that can't be returned to stock with minimal effort.

 

+ that.. a molded roof spoiler would just look kinda weird seeing as no manufacturer ever did that. but a molded trunk spoiler is really nice if done properly.

 

there is a pic of a trunk spoiler around here, my opinion is not to , didnt like the way it looked

 

nice gs man love the wheels fits black for sure

 

i have always thought about this. i have a roofie that mounts to the body and have always said that if i get a jp (replica) trunk spoiler i would mold it. if theyre are pics i would love to see them. good post op

Didnt know that... thanks!

 

I've seen the M3 style trunk spoiler molded on another members car.. Really looked good..

 

i think the JP 3pc wing would look interesting molded on the car but if you do it i would mold it so that you still see they definition of the wing separated from the trunk. i have the JP replica wing and i'm thinking bout molded mine jus so it will stay on better

 

molded roof spoiler would look doo doo to the 3rd degree. I think a molded lip spoiler would look hot though

 

If its molded how do you open the trunk?

 

You don't mold the 3 pieces together, mang, you mold them to the metal you are attaching each piece to. So you'd have a little flare on each quarter panel and the spoiler itself molded into the trunk. It can look very nice if done properly. Takes time and effort to do so.

I take the opposite stance on the roof spoiler, though. I think the UGO one would actually look cool if you did it right. You'd have to leave a small gap for a character line to be defined by the filler/paint, then paint it properly. If you take the time, I think a lot of this stuff can be done and look nice. It's the cheeseballs who do it wrong or the truly hideous kits that make everyone hate body kits/accessories.
