does anyone know if the hawks 5'' spoiler is a direct bolt on replacement for the shorter stock version?

 

Aftermarket body panels/parts are almost never a "bolt on" if you want them to look correct. At the least you'll need paint.

well i figured paint i'm just talking about having to drill new bolt holes or if they use the stock holes from the same 3 piece type spoiler

 

yes its a direct bolt on for 1982-1986 and then 1991-1992 camaros. This is because of the third brake light in the rear spoiler on the 1987-1990 camaros. I had one and it did need some love but it was still awesome looking -Matt

 

thanks for the info

 

as others mentioned, it will bolt right up assuming you had the 3 piece spoiler to being with. The pieces themselves will need some care however to fit and appear 'correct' as they come from a mold and will have some natural deformities...I'm surprised that the price hasn't come down for these yet...makes the purchase all the more worthwhile I guess..

 

Yep, direct bolt on. I had to do some cutting on the two side pieces. They came down past the bottom of the side marker/taillight where the originial stops. The gap between the sides and middle piece where dif. on the two sides but you can fix. I im impressed with mine, it looks good once on.

 

Here's a pic of mine, it fits pretty good. I just have'nt had time to adjust it to where the the middle piece lines up with the two side pieces, i think i just need to adjust my hatch but i'm not sure. They actually look really good, the only complaint I have is the price. I think I speak for everyone who has bought one lol.

 

See, mine actually fits like yours. The gap on the left s bigger, I want to sand down the other side to match, either that or add some in.

 

I really need to get me one of these

 

anyone have some pics of the bottom how they are attaching them?

 

I love these friggin things I cannot wait to get one. Will really make my car once I have this and then with my cowl

 

FueledSoul,
From what i remember they are completely one off molded. They dont use old spoilers and graft on to them. However they use all the factory mounting holes.

 

I know, still wounding what they look like from the bottem

 

bump

 

What exactly is it that you are wanting to see i could take a pic this weekend since miine is off and post it up.

 

I think he just wants to see the bottom of the spoiler. like how it mounts up etc...

 

Exactly

 

I will post pics up for you on monday also of little mods i had to do to install it.

 

Awesome thanks

 

No prob.

 

They look kinda cheap in the pics, like its 2 flat pieces stuck together. Do they have any curve to them like the 2nd gens or are they really the way they appear in the pics

 

I have a side shot in my album u could take a look it at there

 

No they arnt 2 pieces stuck together. They do have some curve to them. About as much as the stock spoilers do. Check out my cardomain to see some pics of mine. -Matt

Too tall for my taste I guess, or maybe a little less angle. I bet it looks better in person. Its still cool and brings back the style of the older Camaros.

Walk around of my IROC with the Hawks 5 Inch

 

i love this spoiler damn! Hey whats the deal with the lights in the windshield?

 

I was a volunteer fire fighter.

 

Ohh ok sweet

 

that and they looked cool lol

 

Yeah they are pretty cool. But I dunno if you could get in trouble for impersonating police or something...

 

Well i was allowed to have them. Red, white and amber. Police here use red/blue or blue. You could have a black and white crown victoria thats black and white and have a red/blue light bar. With a star on the door (nothing that says police) and not get in trouble for it. As long as you dont use the lights on the street. Just at car shows or somthing your fine. Other than for the fire dept i dont really see a use in having them other than like hidden strobe lights in ur turn signals or tail lights for car shows.

 

 

cmon SICKrs make this guy happy!

 

hahaha

 

FueledSoul i am so sorry but i wasnt able to get the pic since i did not go this weekend to go work on my car since i got little job here and well since i need money to finish my car i didnt go and didnt get the pic but most likely next weekend i will. Again im sorry im not trying to bullshit or nothing.

 

sure you didnt buddy....j/k

 

lol well i deserve that since i did told him i was gonna get the pic but i couldnt say no to an extra $100 and with no job right now that helps hahaha but i will try not to make plans for next weekend

 

I have only seen one of these in person and can honestly say that a picture does them no justice. I have heard a lot of talk that the quality is terrible and it will take some body work to make the pieces line up right, though. That said, look at our factory spoilers: I have two thirdgen camaros and neither one of them lines up perfectly... I still want one but the price is stopping me right now.

 

No rush man, lol.

 

Ive never seen one in person that's what makes me want one so bad. be different! price has stopped me too if it was like 200 dollars I'd done have it installed by now!

 

Yea how you said undercover i would have not got the spoiler neither for $300 since i got it for $210 which i why i got it but it looks so nice when u have it on especially compared to the stock one, werent they trying to get a group buy to get them cheaper.

 

Well i was finally to get the pics if your still interested give me ur email.
Sorry for the lateness

 

Pm sent

 

I know I AM GOING to get this. But probably not anytime this year...

 

Well i might have mine for sale since i bought a 91 Z28 for $500 today but ill let you know

 

Deffinately give me first dibs please

 

I sure will man

 

What angel is the spoiler in degrees°? zeroing° off the center of deck lid to get the true angel.

 

I aint sure but i can try to find out just got to find a way to get the angle
