rubber strip under rear spoiler

is there supposed to be a rubber strip under the front side of the trunk spoiler?

I do not have one and I have not seen them available anywhere.

should it be on the back as well?

fyi 1992 firebird convertible.

thanks,
Chris

It's a nylon type plastic that's shaped like the letter P. Leg of the P slides under the front side of spoiler only.
i may have a picture of it on this site someplace. JY 92 transam

Re: rubber strip under rear spoiler

I agree with TTOP350. It is a flexible plastic piece that is shaped like a P and is held in position by the gap between the spoiler edge and the trunk lid. I gave up trying to find something similar and just fastened the edge of the spoiler directly to the trunk lid.
