can we take our spoilers off?

[BlackMSP]

I think ours cars would look nice without them. Is there any way to take them off without making it looking like s***? Like ways to fill in the holes it would leave is what im saying..

Body Shop + Bondo + Paintjob = Job Well Done.

And if I ever decide to take off my spoiler.. it would be to replace it with 1 that my friend has on his lancer.. looks like the evo spoiler... but a little nicer IMO

-stamps you with a stamp that says "MORON"-

okay any 10 dollar jiffy lube shop will do it that ******* dumbass way, bondo = getto rigged... NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER use bondo on any type of applications as a fill in, use it to smooth but not fill in, the correct way would be to buy a peice of sheet metal have it welded on, smooth out the welds and bondo if not smooth enuf. bondo is just a cheap ass way to getto rig ur s*** and it'll more than likely after the first major bump u hit jar loose.

sorry, but bondo is ghey! anyone that has used bondo to shave there doorhandles have them take a picture of there car in a few months garentee the bondo is starting to sink in.. or fall out.. every case i have ever seen bondo blows man.

Ok maybe not a job well done.. but it's better than duct tape lolol

okay okay so your not a redneck moron that uses ducktape ;op okay i forgive you.

 

[Dexter]

weld sheet metal?

 

[Ryan]

yes, like a square big enuf to cover the hole, then u mill down the welds adn repaint use bondo if neccessary but if done right u wont have to.

 

[Matthew]

yes bondo is a no-go

 

[Ryan]

glad someone agree's bondo blows man,,,

The holes are only about 0.25", you can weld fill them easily without having to buy sheetmetal.

[Ryan]

well that works, but i'd never use bondo.. screw that.

 

[Matthew]

yea you prolly could get like screw-like pieces of metal and melt them into the hole...

 

[p-dub]

i'm not sure how fast you wanna fill those holes. i just ripped my spoiler off this week on my 2003 spicy orange (and i love the way the car looks). fast back sedan bizness.

there's 6 holes to fill. for the short term, i just bought some of those little plugs at the hardware store. they have a thin flat top so they don't stick out very much. i'm using my touch up paint to paint the plugs, then i'm gonna pop 'em in. shouldn't look too bad, i'll post pics when i get around to doing it.

if you bring her up 100+MPH, tell us if she's still stable...

i won't be putting a spoiler back on my car until i start pushing like 260 hp at the wheels.

i see WRXs all the time at the track tearin' it up without spoilers.

i hit 100 mph a couple of times this week... no problemo.

 

[Ryan]

she will be ray, the wing that on our car doens't help a whole lot...

 

[low_psi]

yea i really doubt mazda aero tested those spoilers...

 

[SpicyRay]

hey, just wondering, i dont venture past 80 much...i do know that at the speeds i travel the spoiler is pretty useless.

 

[alexlitov]

That spoiler is useless at any speed. It doesnt' do anything for your cars. Just like P5 spoiler. It's for looks only
