Default Alternatives to genuine 500 lower spolier.

Just wondering what alternatives are available for a lower boot spoiler on a 3 door. Now ive read others off different models fit, some going over the quaters like 500 ones do and others not so.

Then there is fibre glass ones IIRC. I did have Ronnies carbon one lined up but hes stopped contact so dont think thats going to happen.

Any advise? Can the 'other' Ford ones still be bought new?

Can anyone point me in the direct of anything for sale?

Also any pics of various ones?

Thanks for your time. Ross.

Jason looks great. Can I ask where you got it from, how much it was, and how its fixed to the bootlid.

Next question, what is the upper one? Genuine/fibreglass/slip on bit?

Thanks alot.

Lower spoiler is taped / bonded to bootlid

Im not sure. They dont look as if the go onto the rear quaters. They also have a little lip that comes down onto the vertical bit of the boot. Where the badges are if that makes sense.
