This was a couple of weeks ago after a scrub-a-dub-dub and a new set of wheels and tires. Left all the kiddos with the sitter and took the wife out!

Its a hawks corner piece isn't quite made as nicely as the rest its not high enough and there's a bigger gap than what I'd like to see

Hi there,
I took a couple quick pics prepping for a car show. I think I need to pose it better, someplace with a nice background.

Heard duraflex products in general are poor quality fitment plus being that its a urethane product it'd be harder to fix than whatever solid material hawks uses

Re: Best Pics of your 3rd Gen....
I've heard the same thing about the duraflex parts. The one thread I read that had comments from a guy who used the duraflex spoiler was that it lined up well it just did not use the same mounting holes. I have a welder and a drill so I'm fine with welding shut the old holes and drilling some new ones. I'll find out in a month or two...

Re: Best Pics of your 3rd Gen....
the hawks one won't fit all holes either, get an rs lid or none will line up. I cut all but 2 off, those needed shortening to be able to get the plugs back on. You can't just drill, there's no hole in the bottom plate for access (unless you want to do it the ugly way, just drill and bubba fix something). I had 3 hawks spoilers, I only have one left. 2 were warped. None of them are identical left to right. All of them need a ton of glass work and the fiberglass is real thin and cracks easily, it's more foam than anything else.
If I were to do it again, I'd just modify the factory spoiler with a taller lip. They fit a lot better and all in all it would be less work.

Re: Best Pics of your 3rd Gen....
Update: Finally I received my car from the paint and body shop... I personally love how it came out
Little trip to the PCH in Malibu CA
Stopped to enjoy the view at Pt. Mugu CA and took a couple pics thought I'll share
Nice view of the Pacific Ocean

Nice car. Now get a proper mount for the fire extinguisher or it is going to bonk you in the head.
