HZ front spoiler from rare spares

**gregbark** · 10-11-2015, 09:05 AM

As the description says it is NOT original GTS. It has a non genuine part number issued. It is an aftermarket plastic spoiler which fits HJ-HZ. It doesn't wrap around the wheel arch edge.Right from the start I offered Wilson1985 that he could call me to discuss his issue, but never heard from him. As Valencia mentions please discuss it with the people you purchased it from first.

Wasn't that bothered about the lack of wrap around...... I could live with that, but the fit or lack of fit in the centre is a disgrace really, no where near close.
I rang them straight away yesterday, and sent them photos, but have had no reply.
Bit shocked at how bad it is really, plus the fact that it is a 2 hour round trip to get there..

maybe there should be a warning on the package that states
"to be fit by a professional with hours of modifications and adjustments required"

"It is an aftermarket plastic spoiler which fits HJ-HZ." fits. v.tr. 1. a. To be the proper size and shape for:

Based on the feedback i would say the spoiler does not 'fit'

There's no way u could get it to fit better in the centre......the angle of the join is just plain wrong...
Maybe I got a dud?

Plus I got no box, they grabbed it off the wall display....

Hi Gm nut, I posted a pic like this somewhere else on the forum but can't remember where now. The Rare Spares / Kingswood Country spoiler is way off. For comparison I took my old fibreglass reproduction one and placed it on the same angles. I ended up getting a new fibreglass one from a place near Sydney. Not really a help for you, but I was very happy with their quality and fit. I can let you know the detail if you are interested.

My brother recently fitted a reproduction spoiler to his HX premier. I can't recall he had any problems. I think he got it from a place in Ipswich. I'll check tomorrow.

Thanks guys, took it back yesterday.....
Think I will get a fibreglass one ....
There's no way I could get the RS one to fit and look neat in the middle

That's a bugger. I have a late 90's rares repro plastic one on my hz ute. And it fitted ok in the middle. Doesn't have the wrap around but we know that and accepted that. I brought two on the day I brought it as it was the last of their old stock I was told. So I guess the other one I have will fit sweet too. (with a bit of fiddling) but I guess better than nothing.
