Front spolier I have came in the back seat of the car. Nose of the spit had
been bent 2 inches off plumb at some point-so spoiler was not put back on
after resto. 5" long screws too obvious.

Did prove to be a "rosetta stone" of painting history on the car, however,
as the plastic surface yielded at least three different paint colors-only
one of which had primer under it!

Not too worried about aerodynamic effects of not having a spoiler- never
will reach V1 (takeoff) speed in the thing, anyway. Only goes about 55
downhill with a tailwind and 1/8  load of gas ;(

rick stieg 75 spit (still heaving on diffy).
