Cpt. Stooby Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Has anyone made a roofmount spoiler for an rx? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoahDL88 Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Why? Not why do you want one, style is umm, a personal preference, but if you think you need one you greatly over estimate the power of that poor little EA-82 in your car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt. Stooby Posted April 25, 2011 Author Share Posted April 25, 2011 I love how everyone is a genius here. I suppose my wording was incorrect. The little wing that sits on the back window. And it an ea 82t get it right little nukka Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoahDL88 Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Sorry, I'll spot you the 10 extra HP, so you want the one that goes on the bottom of the window? And I'd recommend not using nukka again unless you want to go to banned camp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt. Stooby Posted April 27, 2011 Author Share Posted April 27, 2011 I bet I could make friends at banned camp I think the 09 sti sedan came with the one im talking about. Also the focus, but there's are ugly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numbchux Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Obviously we have no idea wtf you're talking about. and, since the 09 sti sedan is not a thing ('08-10 STI were only avail as a hatch), you need to spend some time with google image search and show us.

Turbone Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Guys guys guys.....if you have no clue, keep your trap shut! I know exactly what he's talking about and he's right about some of the late model Subaru's have a Roof Vane or Wind Deflector at the TOP of the back window. Oh hey, look.....it was a optional item from Subaru I believe the Toyota Celica of that same era also had one. And btw, I have been trying to figure something out for this for about a year now. I'll let you know what I come up with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt. Stooby Posted April 28, 2011 Author Share Posted April 28, 2011 Roof vane. Huh.. Yeah that looks good. Thanx for understanding turbone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt. Stooby Posted April 28, 2011 Author Share Posted April 28, 2011 And since you say that I would look at 85 and older supra I think thats th car your thinking of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt. Stooby Posted April 28, 2011 Author Share Posted April 28, 2011 Are any of these catalogs actually still function. Or is there say a new age one I could order a "roof vane" from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt. Stooby Posted April 28, 2011 Author Share Posted April 28, 2011 And some of those hood louvers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbone Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Probably the only way to even look to see if any of its still available, is to know someone in Japan or go over there yourself. The Brochures are quite obsolete. I'm pretty sure FHI purged all these old parts out of the warehouse years ago. The only way to do this is to retrofit from another make/model. Years ago I did see one in the junkyard on a Toyota, probably a Supra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caboobaroo Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 I think I've figured out how to attach the new style roof vane to the RX rear window but I don't have one yet so its all irrelevant:-\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt. Stooby Posted April 29, 2011 Author Share Posted April 29, 2011 Thats bad azz guys. How much does one cost. And do think u can keep it all one piece or is it too wide? Is the new wing carbon fiber? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilesFox Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 someone would have to go steal this on someone's car, try to fit it to theirs, and then come here to answer your question. all of the knowledge on this board is first-hand, initially.

1982gl4 Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 The ones of the 06 or so STI can be found on eBay for relatively cheep, they are carbon fiber or fiber glass depending on how much you want to spend , I'm not sure if they would have to be cut or not. I was planing on getting one soon for my 02 WRX http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SUBARU-IMPREZA-WRX-STI-UNPAINTED-ROOF-SPOILER-02-07-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem33624cf4b7QQitemZ220692542647QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories#ht_3958wt_941 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously? ALL of the knowledge (initially)? You have contributed nothing to this thread other than to say one would have to steal a item to see if it would fit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caboobaroo Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 It'll have to be cut down IIRC, as the ones from an STi mount on the C-pillars. I've actually been thinking about connecting it onto my RX's back window somehow. Got a couple ideas but nothing concrete yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbone Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 (edited) If you look at the one thats on ebay, it has a sharper curve then the RX does. Not sure if that can be flattened out or not. I'm currently doing a search for the Toyota MKll Supra roof spoiler, there might be a aftermarket one available. http://newyork.craigslist.org/brk/pts/2350907151.html Edited April 29, 2011 by Turbone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
