#1: Can you take a close up pic of your spoiler please Author: davieboy86, Location: Kent,Posted: Mon Mar 07, 2011 6:58 am ---- Hi guys, what I'm after is some pics of where the gti spoiler joins onto the car, I know where it goes ( I'm not a complete idiot!). The problem I am facing is getting both sides of the spoiler flush with the edge of the tail gate,
I'll get a pic up tonight of my spoiler that im wanting to fit and how it looks, I'm just after some pics of how it SHOULD look lol.
UPDATE::: the pics at davewafula.Photoshop.com
Still after some photos of how you guys' spoilers look. Last edited by davieboy86 on Tue Mar 08, 2011 12:35 pm; edited 1 time in total

#3: Re: Can you take a close up pic of your spoiler please Author: juanfernandes, Location: LondonPosted: Mon Mar 07, 2011 7:06 am ---- I don't think the spoiler sits flush to the sides IIRC.
#4: Re: Can you take a close up pic of your spoiler please Author: Harry, Location: StaffordPosted: Mon Mar 07, 2011 7:46 am ---- Nah, even on the ones where they were fitted when the car was bought brand new they look slightly out of line
#5: Re: Can you take a close up pic of your spoiler please Author: davieboy86, Location: Kent,Posted: Mon Mar 07, 2011 8:39 am ---- That's what I was wondering, because I've tried getting both the left and right flush but no dice stall, I just need to find someone local go has done it already who can help me out so I can get it too look ok, what a nightmare so far.

You mean do the bolts / nuts up tight

#8: Re: Can you take a close up pic of your spoiler please Author: roberto.f, Location: Coventry/ManchesterPosted: Mon Mar 07, 2011 11:07 am ---- When I did it, I made myself a little measuring thing out of a ruler and a measured piece of card, then measured the distance from a particular point both sides, to a point on the spoiler. Marked on the tailgate using a TINY scratch (that was covered up in the end).
Had some pictures doing it, but they're on my old laptop, which doesn't turn on. If I was local I'd come down and help.

Peugeot are nice like that as they include it & idiot proof instructions in the box
#10: Re: Can you take a close up pic of your spoiler please Author: davieboy86, Location: Kent,Posted: Mon Mar 07, 2011 11:32 am ---- I'll try ringing Peugeot in the morning app how much the fitting kit is, just got back from work I'll go and hold the spoiler to the car and try to get a pic to better explain it, thanks for the input so far guys, starting to see the light

It comes with a genuine Peugeot spoiler, I very much doubt they will sell the fitting kit on its own.
#12: Re: Can you take a close up pic of your spoiler please Author: davieboy86, Location: Kent,Posted: Mon Mar 07, 2011 12:44 pm ---- Ok well basically I've uploaded two photos one shows how I think both sides should sit, the next photo is slightly exaggerated (because I only have two arms) but it's how the other side sits when the other is like photo 1.
All are at davewafula.Photoshop.com (pretty sure that's it)
#13: Re: Can you take a close up pic of your spoiler please Author: roberto.f, Location: Coventry/ManchesterPosted: Tue Mar 08, 2011 6:08 am ---- Just looked at your pictures, the spoiler doesn't sit at the very corner of the tailgate. You need to get it as close as you can to the exact middle - with the same gap at either end to the end of the tailgate.
#14: Re: Can you take a close up pic of your spoiler please Author: davieboy86, Location: Kent,Posted: Tue Mar 08, 2011 8:17 am ---- Cheers buddy much appreciated, I'm gonna try and arrange to meet a member that's already done it just so it goes on perfect .
