Question about the hausser spoiler

Everything that doesn't belong in the previous categories probably belongs here. Interiour (how are the seats mounted? how to remove the CEM?) and exteriour (how to replace the popup-lights shock absorbers or a door) are discussed here!

Question about the hausser spoiler

Post by Themasteryeti » Sun Aug 28, 2022 10:57 pm

I'm looking into getting a hausser spoiler made and wondered when it's been installed is it fixed in position or does it move up with the boot as if it's fixed in place it doesn't look like the boot would open fully? Cheers guys! 😁

Hi,

The Hausser spoiler is attached to the boot hinges, not the body - so lifts up with the boot lid. :D

Someone mentioned a company on the forum that makes the spoilers still so I emailed them and they still do! Just waiting on a quote :)

If its WR Components, I have one if their copies which I've not been able to fit. It came without the hinge fixings, or the part they attach to on the spoiler. Instead the fixing bolts are on the ends and line up with the edge of the glass so utterly useless. Cost £180 and Wayne's attitude was don't ask me how they fit, I only make them.

If anyone wants one to alter I'd be very happy to sell mine.
