Opinions on rear spoilers? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Att3mpt · 01-15-2021, 01:10 AM

I am specifically looking at z28 spoiler or the anvil rear notch spoiler.
currently leaning towards the anvil rear notch because Chevy accessories messed up on my z28 spoiler order.

If I do go for anvil rear notch spoiler, is the fiberglass a good idea?

I heard fiberglass aren't as sturdy as carbon fiber but I also don't really want to have a carbon fiber part on my car because it will be the only part that is carbon fiber...

Also since my car is DD and parked outside :( the birds like to harass my car and I know carbon fiber and bird poop don't go well...

I have the fiberglass anvil notch and have never had a problem with it.

I had the Anvil notch. Sold it and bought the Streetfighter LA spoiler. Best move I ever made. This thing blows away the Anvil. You also don't need to add a wicker bill with it.

^^^ I too went with the STREETFIGHTER LA spoiler from the MPD1 I had. Mine is CF but they also have it in FG..

Well at least I get a good impression picture in color of how [BIG] the A$$ of my car will look when I get mine installed.

Man, I have known about the Streefighter LA spoiler for a while now and always have loved it.
But the more I see it on the cars here, the more I want to ditch my custom Z/28 for it.

I personally am not as much of a fan of the LA one since its so big.
but they do look awesome on some cars!

On ebay i found a new in GM box OEM Z28 spoiler in factory painted Red Hot color matching my car. Part# embossed and stamps verifies it is OEM and not a knock-off.
It melds in perfectly to the trunk contour and fits into original SS mounting points without mod.
It cost $150 and still looks perfect after 5 years. Amazing how it just popped up one day on ebay, box included new gas trunk lid support struts.

The white SS nose stripe in sig is a Chevy/Dealer special retro 1967 Camaro SS stripe design that was thrown in as a Chevy 20% off car msrp Camaro promo they were doing. (Which I had thought about removing).

But when it comes to spoilers, isn't it the bigger the better?

Spoiler King painted matte black and shipped for $109, matched up great too, easy install, except having to paint my trunk lid because the stock spoiler rubbed through the paint

That is a great buy and it looks great on there. I hope that lady with her heal on your car is your better half.
