This will be seen as heresy by many, but I don't really care for the currently available BRE Spook (which is actually the "cool spook" since it has the oil cooler cutout) for the Roadsters. The issue to me is that it does not flow with the fenders.



I kind of like this one but the molded in look is a bit too much:

Ron Carter has a tall Spook on his car. I have the normal "Cool Spook" on mine. I use Dzus fasteners to hold it on. I've hit cones with it and it hasn't come off, but it does have a crack in the center of it (need to fix that). I welded tabs to the inside of the fenders and attached that way. There really isn't any other way of doing it.

Dean does have a different version that extends up onto the front of the car that can be bolted/screwed on.

Sorry, I find modern engine swaps revolting. Keep your G, R, or U series in your Roadster!

I do have the spoiler you are looking for, you can look at my photos at rcnetworksracing.com to confirm. Les Cannaday made a mold of my spoiler and it is available from him.
