Default Looking for Ganey

Ganey- Have a question I hope you can answer- I put/am putting on a front aftermarket spoiler like the one you have on your '77 onto my '77. Holes align fine, no problem. However, on the tip of the spoiler that goes up into the wheelwell. I am suppose to drill into the fender lip to secure the tip of the spoiler to the wheelwell- the lip isn't wide enough to drill into- So how do I secure the tip or portion that goes next to wheelwell? Use a smaller screw(much smaller) and hope it holds securely? :confused: thanks in advance.

Bill

Mine is the 78 Pace Car spoiler from Chevy dealer. Expect you can use a metal clip & small screw.

You should really like it.

:cool:

Here is the factory installed D80 option. The pic is not great but you can see where the screw is located and going through the fender lip. There show be lots of meat there.
