I've been talking to a shop here and they're going to make me a wing like the griggs racing wing for a coupe.

I'll post pictures of how they come up in the next couple of days.

I just wanted to know if anyone was interested in one , they will be made out of aluminum. As of right now he's making it so it welds on to the trunk...
(EDIT He's welding the bend because he cant make the bend , It will be riveted to the trunk)

If anyone is interested PM me.

Here is a picture of how they will hopefully come out.

The idea is cool, and I would be interested, but you can't weld aluminum to steel

I want one but it would have to be riveted or something not welded.

Posted by Ric88Notch (Member # 11660) on :

Yeah he just sent me pics and i think it will be riveted.

Posted by stangin' (Member # 514) on :

What are we talking about price wise? There's a group of folks on the corral that wanted this spoiler made. One member even tried to contact Griggs to get them produced again and got quite a few members committed to purchasing one, but Griggs never came through.

Posted by NorCalRydaz (Member # 3233) on :

RIC88 do you have any other pics of the spoiler from a different angle?

Posted by 89SaleenCoupe (Member # 8695) on :

Can't wait til I get mine Cuzzin... [patriot]

Posted by 95gtdrop (Member # 7478) on :

sexy notch!!!

Posted by SIC9250 (Member # 8216) on :

[worship]

Soooo fuckn sick been wanting to do this for years ona foxnotch!!!!!! This alone makes me want another coupe [Frown]

Posted by Ric88Notch (Member # 11660) on :

Posted by Ric88Notch (Member # 11660) on :

He also said that he can make it so it can be bolted or riveted to the top of the trunk.

Posted by JohnCM (Member # 1076) on :

You could make that bend easy out of aluminum if you had a shrink/stretching machine. Then just pop a few rivets in it and call it a day
But that example looks good too [patriot]

Posted by JZTRK (Member # 7641) on :

makes it look too much like a grand national

Posted by racsirx (Member # 1710) on :

Can you ask if they will make a wing like this for me?

Lee is that S.O.S strutless wing you said would look good?
If so your right

Posted by Fast(er) Eddie (Member # 4737) on :

He needs to make one for a hatch too.
I've always wanted something in that profile for a hatch.

Posted by LXjames (Member # 10791) on :

so where are we at with this and do we have a relative price in mind???????

Posted by 2T0NE (Member # 4216) on :

Wow looks good, anyway to have a rounded edge instead of them sharp corners, like the blue notch

Posted by Ric88Notch (Member # 11660) on :

That's just a rough example on my coupe. It will be shaped like the trunk. I'll have more updates tomorrow

Actually you can now. Lol i use these really nice welders at my job that can do it. the only catch is the aluminum has to be galvanized.

It is. I used 1/4th aluminum. But I just wanted mine done ASAP. I wasn't going for functionality or weight, just looks [Cool]

It weighs 9lbs

* For anyone interested in one I may be able to get thinner aluminum *

Matt, that's the Griggs spoiler....but if he can make one similar then I know I'll snatch one up quick. I've been wanting one for a while now but haven't found anyone that can make it. The Griggs one is carbon fiber and discontinued niw...they went for around $500 new though [Eek!]

Posted by 4IDFOX (Member # 9921) on :
