Default Identify this spoiler
After wrapping my roof and halo in black, I'm thinking it needs a spoiler to add back a little visual height. Anyone know what spoiler this is?

I'm guessing it's just some universal one, C5 trunk is pretty flat so just need to get the length measurement right.

Definitely never seen that. Not a big fan, personally, but I know how that goes.

I'm not a big fan either, maybe a medium fan. Just looking at options. Making my corvette look more tuner than retiree, you know? I did buy the C5 because I didn't want to pay for an FD RX7, after all

Haha I feel that. I go for function first before anything. My plan for next year is a Nine Lives Racing wing and splitter. And then to go use it.

I am not a C5 rear spoiler guy but that is fairly interesting. I would be afraid that some "less than nice" person would see it in a parking lot (I try to avoid parking lots b/t/w/) and be tempted to see if they could pull it off. Just thinking out loud....

It actually looks a lot like the OEM wing from a 99 3000gt Vr4. Definitely have seen worse big wings on C5s.

It reminds me of an Eclipse wing. Not a huge fan.

Hmmm, I actually like it if it could be mounted further to the rear of the car. Not sure how functional it is.

One of the challenges with the c5 rear end being the way it is, you wouldn't mount it to the urethane bit. I'd just forego a wing altogether before I bother with chassis mount.
