6n Spoiler

iggy350 · Post by **iggy350** » Mon Dec 17, 2007 4:52 pm

I got a spoiler for my polo, nothing too flashy just something to set the back of the car off.

I need to get it paint still but, how on earth do I attach it to my car? It hasn't come with anything tbh.

I got some lame instructions but their aint no pics.

I have looked at the 6n2 guide posted on the DIY forum however I dont have none of that stuff either.

I'm guessing I'll need some adhesasive, but I dont know where to look for some, nor which stuff is good or bad. Also do I need to screw the spoiler on to the car? I'm guessing it would be better cos I wouldnt wanna be going down the M-Way to see my Wing take flight lol

Any help is much apprieciated guys

Thanks a lot

If I were you I'd let a bodyshop respray and fit it. IF not then I noticed the haynes (sp?) manual at Halfords that was amazing at teaching you everything about modding your bad boy including fitting your spoiler. Any pics of your spoiler btw? Where did you get it from?

You can buy special adhesive on eBay for attaching body kit's, spoilers etc.

Tiger seal's good stuff too i heard http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Tiger-Seal-Adhesi ... dZViewItem

you wanna use tiger seal, its about a tenner for a bottle. Mark out where you want the spoiler to go, and sand the laqour off that bit of your boot (heartbraking i know!) untill its rough, then whack on your tiger seal, hold it in place for a few minuits till its stuck, then dont drive for a day. You could screw it on but drilling through your tailgate will be a right mission. I was well worried about this, but mine still seems to be alright after about 6 months. If your worried though just see what a body shop will charge

Do I just search for 'Polo spoilers' or is it a universal one?
