Front Spoilers
My front left and right side spoilers are sagging down and look crappy. They are not damaged, just apparantly fatigued.
Is there any way to prop them up without drilling any new holes, or should I just replace them?
thanks!!!

Tiger650,
There are supports you can buy for about $20 that will re-enforce the mounting holes. I have them on both C5's and the work well. Look at Madvet, or Ecklers (or e-bay). Unless the spoler holes have been stretched, I wouldn't buy new ones. But if you have to Fitchner sells them pretty cheap. - C.

Fichtner's has a great price for the left and right front spoilers. For the money, might as well replace them too. Here is the link.

Had a spare piece of sheet metal laying around so I traced out a pattern and cut it out with some tin snips drilled 4 holes and bolted them in.
Cost $0.00
Time 45 min.
If you don't have the sheet metal add $5.00 to the project.
