Where do I get this spoiler??

[conradtan]

I'm ordering it right now!!!

The Cayman has aaerodynamics going on with its roof line and rear end mini-ducktail as seen with the spoiler up.

Comparing a boxster to a Cayman aerodynamically is not an apples to apples comparison just because the platforms are similar and one is a hardtop and the other a convertible.

I realize that. I'm just saying that for average street driving they can be considered similar (note, not the same, but similar) air flow wise. It's not going to throw off the balance of the entire car to the point where it's unsafe or hard to drive as it might swapping in a...oh, I don't know, STI wing. Granted, that's still far fetched, but you get what I'm saying.

Well aerodynamics - shmareodynamics... I think it looks cool as heck! Hehe... Thanks for the input though. I just hope it doesn't fall off! Ordered it today, I'll post pics after it's in and up and let ya'll know if it stays on!

Do keep us posted and let us know what you think of their improved mounts.
If it does fall off, hopefully it won't be at high speed on a cool moist day with a 30kt S.F. headwind. Perfect conditions for your car to suddenly become an airplane.

I look at pics of your car everyday and twiddle my thumbs in anticipation. Omar said that he's painting mine today and will ship tomorrow if the paint is dry by then. Oh man, like a kid in a candy store!

How's yours holding up? How did you remove the old spoiler? I'm looking at 3 plasticky looking button/rivet looking things. You have the same thing?

[jhandy]

Well, After 4 days I received the part. There are 3 plastic rivets. Get a normal round toothpick and poke the centers into the fin. Then with a small Flathead screwdriver pry the plastic plugs out. It is very easy, careful not to scratch it with the screwdriver. Then the painted cap can be removed, pry from the back and peel and pull it forward, towards the seats. Then use a Allen wrench to remove the bolts in the hole. X2. The fin will now come off.
Now look at the ends, there are plastic end caps. Remove one of them, again with the screwdriver, and pout out the three plastic pins and the two screws that are inside the fin. Replace the pins in the plastic rivets, replace the end cap, and store your fin somewhere. As for putting the new one on, it is a one step process. Just screw in thing one with the supplied screws. I used 2 plastic washers because I was afraid that the metal screws might crack the fiberglass. It is holding up so far. I went about 110 for 5 ish miles and it was still on there when I stopped.
Good luck,
James
PS Down here in Texas it is easy to find a country back road with no people or curves to do 110 for 5 miles.
