Hawk's aerowing spoiler?

I need a new aerowing spoiler for my Formula, has anyone had any problems with the one from Hawks? I saw a couple of threads that had fitment issues and I was wondering if the problem their spoilers had been fixed.

Re: Hawk's aerowing spoiler?

When I bought my GTA, it had a 'glass wing on it, and I never could see any trimming/mods to it, to make it fit right.

Not saying there were't any done, since I'm not the one who put it on the car, but I couldn't see anything that didn't look "as cast".

Now I have a 4th gen rear wing. Looks much better IMO.

Re: Hawk's aerowing spoiler?

Most aftermarket fiberglass products WILL have fittement issues to be fixed to make it work.

But having said that, I just picked up a 4th gen spoiler a few hours ago for a cool $50.....it has some busted fiberglass on one side......but since I'm pretty good at fiberglass it's a very repairable job.

Here are some pics....overlook the car it's a work in progress, I've only had it for a month or so.

Re: Hawk's aerowing spoiler?

I understand I might have to make a few adjustments and I am not concerned; I know how to work with fiberglass and micro balloons. I found some threads where these things were off by a couple of inches or so.
