Black Shark: Vancours is the one. Someone had a post about C3 aeros. They showed how little air flows over the rear deck w/strips, much as I suspected. Raising the spoiler tp 6" might get enough air to actually do some good. How tall were the Le Mans C3 spoilers? They look very tall, maybe more than 6"? I hate to put on anything that isn't functional, will it help?
Sorry for the hijack, good info is hard to find.
I bought the vanacours flares for my 80 however I'm not blending them in. I cut and then shaped them so I can attached with 8 to 10 small screws each side. Where I couldn't get a nut behind I insalled small inserts in the body panel for the screws to thread into. Since the stock opening is much larger, pulling the flare makes easy to work on things and touch up the flare if damaged.
I know this wouldn't work for everyones taste but it suits my purpose. Will be getting ready for paint in a month or so.

I am not too sure about the air flow, this car wont see very high speeds where downforce would be a factor at all. I just liked the way the 6 inch looked on the car with the big flares.
