Will you all sell the transparent Gurney flap separate? Would it bolt up to the OEM FP wing?

 

[tj@steeda]

No, we don’t plan to sell separately. Unfortunately, it will not bolt up to the Ford Performance wing.

Some photos from a customer that recently had it installed!

The customer photos look more satin black rather than the gloss black showed in the video. Which one is a more accurate depiction of what actually comes?

I just got this wing for Christmas. How do I install it? Instead of alignment pegs and bolts with nuts, it has screws that go in from the bottom. How do I install those and align the thing with the double sided tape at the same time? Some instructions would have been nice considering it is the opposite of what a traditional wing install is.

Mine is gloss black and it seems to match the paint well. The gurney flap is smoked.

There's 2 options IMO:

First would be to go to a hardware store and buy some studs and nuts and install them on the wing instead of screws. Another trick I saw someone is put a few allen keys through the trunk holes from the bottom and tape them on as temporary guides. You then place the spoiler on and remove one at a time and replace with the screws.

I personally will go with option 1 if I can find the hardware.

Thank you. I hadn't thought of the first option, but it's the way to go. I just have to match the thread size correctly and use some thread locker to make sure they don't back out.

Excellent advice. Much appreciated.

They are not the same install. One has studs that help you center, and the other comes with screws that go in from the bottom and dont help with alignment at all. I have a solution, but you kinda just dodged the question completely.

 

[tj@steeda]

I said I would inquire about instructions as I don't have any personal experience with this wing.

Thank you,

TJ

Did you get it installed yet? Mine should be delivered this week and I wasn’t aware i'd have to deal with this mounting hardware issue

The Ford GT500 spoiler does come with a tinted wicker bill, I have one. Ordered the spoiler from Levittown Ford. Just wanted to clear that up.
