    HX Spoiler

    I went and bought one of the plastic spoilers from Kingswood Country (Rare Spares?)
    I'm not entirely sure its going to look good when on the car.
    In the pic you can see the original one (well, the one that was on the van when I bought it) and the Kingswood Country one.
    The original meets well in the centre where the new one doesn't. The new one also doesn't have screws to hold it along the top.
    Has anyone had experience with these?
    I thought the plastic one might be good for use whilst driving and the original one for standing still, but now I'm not so sure.

    What do you mean by "original"?

    The genuine holden ones were plastic. Aftermarket replacements have mostly been fibreglass. That aftermarket plastic one looks pretty shoddy though. I'd love to say I'm surprised by that.

    In this case "original" means the one that was on the van when I bought it :-)
    Is there anywhere/anyone that makes a good reproduction spoiler?

    Been down the spoiler path before and unfortunately wasted money on ill fitting spoilers that were rubbish ,take my advise and buy one from Ernicks Wilson Fibreglass,they do good stuff that fits.

    I just took delivery of a minty fresh front spoiler from Ernicks Fibreglass. Wow! Does it look good. So much better than the Kingswood Country / Rare Spares ones.
    We'll get there shortly.
