Default NOT Genuine ford RS500 lower boot spoiler (PICS) :cry:

its got all the caps, but there are small cracks around where they go, its a bit scratched and there is one really small bit where its been snagged.

£100 or swap for a 3 door bonnet and the side skirts (i got the arches already)

cheers

Jules think he means the Sierra 2.0i sport 5dr 84-87 which had a bottom spoiler which was similar to the 500 BUT was made of a different kind of material and DIDN'T have the cut out for the 500 fin.

The 1.6l spoiler Is the same as the gen 500 lower spoiler ( I have 2 in my garage ) exept for the cutout for the rear fin which was cut out at tickford with a knife

Sadly tho this one isnt as it looks like fibreglass and also the 500 spoiler has no screw caps and as spadge says its has different corners

I got both mine from std 1.6L cars ,,But the spoilers where available to buy from any ford dealer for £45 + vat and most of the std 3 doors had them fitted as a extra after sale .

So we are both correct ( in a way ) lol,,

Either way the one above isnt the corrct item ,,lol,,

I was always under the impression that the notch was just cut out of the ones fitted to the original 500s, but I recently bought a genuine 500 lower fin and the missing bit is 100% moulded in, as you can see the mould line and the walls of the notch are perfectly smooth not cut.

Fudge I have a brand new composite lower 500 spoiler for sale for £75, its very well made not the usual tat if its of any use for your project.

i was just about to say the same,i have a 2.0 spoiler on my 3 door,and got a genuine 500 one to copy the cut out (it was from spadges black 500 he bought a few months back) and the spoilers are very slightly different were they sit on the rear quarter,but for £20 ,i can live with it.i have seen some right bodges ,were people have tried to cut the 'v' out
