Default anyone seen this spoiler for sale?

This is a spoiler Nascar used to run a few seasons back. Was wondering if anyone has seen one for sale, or even if they are made for Monte Carlos at all?

I assume you mean this spoiler?



The problem with that spoiler is that our trunks have a bump in them, so if you put a spoiler that rises over the trunk, you will see that ugly bump and it would just look terrible.

yes that is the spoiler EXACTLY!
If the spoiler were to be bolted down either side of the hump,
you don't think that would work? I think it looks cool cause it's different,
ya know?

It would work, anything bolted will work.
It would look weird because our Montes have that bump, if it were flat it would definitely open up for other options out there.

I actually own one of these, brand new in-the-box, but I have no intentions of using it on my Monte. The Monte Carlo was never used for the "car of tommorow". However, my father does own a white 2009 Impala which will likely be mine one day. Can you see where this is going?

The spoiler I have is genuine carbon fibre too and it retails for about $800! The end plates are a little different, but the width is perfect. I gotta admit its is beautiful (especially up close). I got it under questionable means - just barely legal, but it didn't cost me a dime (like I said, I work for a parts store). I'm not selling it.

I understand, The Nascar bodies have no hump to contend with, that's why it looks soo cool. Just a thought, would be nice to see something offered other than the surfboard or the pace car spoiler, I think.

not to make fun of you or anything, but what would a larger spoiler do for a fwd car?

just for looks? if thats the case, then more power to you, there just isnt a performance benefit.

wow, that is about as Nascar as you can get.
It's over the top for me, but give credit to the guy
for coming up with an alternative. The only other
one I can find is the Xenon blade, can't figure out if I
like it or not though...guess I'd have to see one in real life.
Very cool article, thanks for sending it.
