most commonly known as a BRE spoiler since it was used on all the BRE race 240Z's

I've been searching. I have seen some on the internet (ebay link above). I was just curious what kind of spoliers people usually buy (brand wise). I guess I'm saying that I didn't wanna buy a pos haha

 

Thanks for the information. I've seen the BRE spoiler in some of my searches.

 

thinking about the carbon fiber one cool.gif

BRE spoiler had a height of like 3 inches or something. There were other one-offs. I purchased what I thought was a bre spoiler, cheap off ebay. Turned out I got the one that was 5-5.5 inches tall. I think it looks better sticking up more. Only problem was that it it was a hollow fiberglass piece. i didn't want to glass it onto the body, heard terrible things about that. I wound up filling it with expandable foam, placing wood blocks in it, then putting in these bolts that are wood screw on one end and 3/8" thread or something on the other side. Bolt it to the hatch. I really don't like it though, worrying that the wood may pop out of the foam. I will probably take it apart and glass in bolts, I'm not really sure how to go about it.

 

Edit: See this. I guess that's the one I have.

i have one that is identical to the BRE spoiler , wish i could tell you where i got it from but it was put on the car sometime between 1978-1982 long before i was even born! along with fiberglass 1/4 panels, fiberglass front fenders, headlight bezels, and a vented air dam ! bought the entire car from the owners son after he passed away for $800
