Wickerbill (Spoiler) - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I'm thinking about getting one of those wickerbills (adjustable spoiler) mounted onto my current 1LE spoiler, but i'm not entirely sure yet... Personally I think they're really good looking but probably a few of you on here have already done it and could give me some advice!

Will the downforce hurt my MPG on the freeway?
How easy (or hard) is the installation?

What do you guys think?

I have a 2010 SS and added the ZL1 Spoiler with the Z/28 Wickerbill. Looks and functions great.

This is the GM wicker? If so, do the fasteners come with it?

Looks really good man. Do you notice the functionality? Is it that big of a difference?

Anyone try wrapping the wickerbill with 3M carbon fiber wrap?

I put the Z28 spoiler and wicker bill on and love the look. Only issue was a little rub on the paint where the old spoiler touched.

Depends on which one you get...
The real GM one is adjustable for downforce, so cruising on the highway you could add or drop MPG depending on how it was et up.

Some of the clones only offer it in one position...

Also, apparently you need a special tool during install..

I would be surprised anyone would want to install this just for looks... It will make you slower, so if you go drag racing, it's not something you want. It's purely for rear downforce on a road course. Also, I'd say unless you do something to get more downforce in the front, you'll have more understeer using this at speed.
