Post by cavaliersri130 »

Finally got round to painting my Sri spoiler for the red envoy had it for ages just got to fit it now after a rub down and polish few little marks.

All primed up.

Done a good job. I have the same kind of spoiler that requires painting in Smoke Grey for my Cavalier. Did you use an aeresol for paint and the laquer?
Also what are you using to hold the spoiler on to the hatch?

Na I'm getting the strip that sticks it down in the first place and I'm also using bolts that holds it down going Mark it all up and try to make the marks for the holes to be drilled.
In theory anyway lol.
