RS Package Spoiler - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

KDawg · 02-20-2009, 12:02 AM

Can someone please post a pic in this thread of what that spoiler will look like? This is what I'm looking for exactly in this pic, is that it? I opted for the RS package when I ordered, praying that it won't have any ground effects or a highwing spoiler, and hoping it's the spoiler in this pic, please help!

All you really need to do is look at pics from the auto shows. Find one with RS on the back or SS in red letters and that's what spoiler it will have. Ground effects and high wing spoiler are GM Performance Part accessories that are ordered seperately so you won't have to worry about getting them unless you add them to your order and pay the extra $$$. Closest spoiler you'll be able to get to that pic is the dovetail spoiler which is a $400 option according to http://www.gmperformanceparts.com/se...o_sitelet.html You can see it on the Dale Jr. Concept car.

The RS spoiler is the same as the SS spoiler which is indeed the one in the picture you posted Kdawg. The dovetail and High wing spoiler are extras from GMPP as stated above, but base and RS spoiler is the one you want. I'm in the same boat and want that stock spoiler also. =) BTW, Welcome to the boards.

Thanks for the welcome! I'm trying to get a Bumblebee of my own, and I know that the RS package I opted for has nothing to do with him, but what scares me is this RS pic i found on another thread, of brake cooling slots that aren't functional! And I'm really hoping that the Midnight Silver painted aluminum wheels don't throw me too far off! Since mine's an SS with the RS trim package, I'll still have the cooling slots functioning right Mindz? The dealer I'm ordering it from is getting tired of my questions now that they've got my deposit.

The brake cooling slots as you call them are not functional on any of the camaros, they are a styling que that goes back to the 69 camaro, those were not functional either. I hope you also know the hood mail slot scoop is also non functional.

Sorry, the picture Kdawg posted is not the production spoiler. You can find all the examples of the production spoilers on this thread:

Do you mean the OP's pic of Bumblebee???? That car is a concept. Note the gas cap location. That spoiler is slightly taller than what will come with production cars (ss and RS).

haha i know that they're not "functional" but cooling slots is what they're called on the spec sheet for the v8 I ordered, but on the v6's there's just the molds for the slots to be there, but they're really not! I'm just hoping that the RS package will still have real "holes" in the fender is what i'm looking for

if you're still talking about the 3 'slots' in front of the rear tires, NONE of them on any package will be holes, just indentions in the panels. there's structural support behind there, so cutting wouldn't be beneficial to you. on top of that, if you cut holes in the panels that just went into an empty space, that'll increase drag, allow debris and moisture to get in there & rust out the panels much faster. cutting sounds like a lose-lose situation to me
