Re: new front spoiler? 91 style
How bad is your existing one? Can you post some pics? You might be able to repair it. If it is the aero gfx chin spoiler those are hard to come by good used ones. Repo's sell for around $300. Have you checked out craigslist in your area? Hawksthirdgen and youngsfbody may have some used ones. I think both of them plus classicindustries sell new repo's. We want some pics when car is done. Teal is a nice color on these cars.

Re: new front spoiler? 91 style
here is the pictures i can provide. the body shop im dealing with said it would be cheaper to get a new one, then for them to fix the one i have because it could happen again to mine if not repaired perfect. what do you guys think?

It can be repaired, they just don't want to do it. Also stay away from those curbs LOL!

Re: new front spoiler? 91 style
Just that one crack in it? If so thats not bad at all, mine had a crack in each corner and one in the center and it cleaned up fine in about 3 hours total - using the plastic repair stuff and the plastics repair guide on here lol. They should have no problem fixing it, they're just being lazy methinks

That is worth saving, Tear is in a nice spot too, not at the corner wrap part!

Re: new front spoiler? 91 style
That's too bad... I'd see if I could hang on to the old spoiler just in case though.
I'm using Soffseal weather stripping on my car, it seems to be pretty nice in the shipping bag lol. The other aftermarket one thats supposed to be good is Metro, I think... both aren't GM, but still...

Re: new front spoiler? 91 style
Camaro Central sells the spoiler for around $220 I think. The 3M stuff needed to do this right runs oround $150 I think if you have to buy it all from scratch- plus labor... I am in the same delemma my self. I may just spring for a new one.

Re: new front spoiler? 91 style
I would just have it fixed for sure thats not bad at all. I hit a cat that was trying to dart across the freeway at about 120 km and it pretty much ripped the spoiler right off and I ran it over had to turn around and pick it up off the road but I took it to a shop and they fixed it up no problem!
