Apparently the Ron Fellows spoiler came with 2 mounting studs to use in place of the center 2 from the original spoiler. Does anyone have a clue where to source these?
From what I’ve researched they’re just longer than the original versions. The OE ones are absolutely too short.
Picture of spoiler for reference as well as what the OE stud looks like.
I just installed mine and found that problem I'm going to take it off and back out the screws till I can grab them with a nut hopefully will still have enough to hold onto spoiler I installed one of these years ago and they came with the longer hardware.
What that stud looks like to me is a ‘hanger bolt’ with a washer between the wood screw and machine screw section. Maybe send emails to Grainger and Fastenol with a pic to see if they stock anything like that, or direct you to where you might buy them.

I found this stud using a Google Lens search. The rep at my local dealer said it’s M6x1x30mm. So it’s 5mm longer than the original. So 0.2 inches longer. I ordered 2 and they should be here in a few days. Downfall is they’re $20 each. Hope they work!! I’ll keep you posted.

Aww the corvette tax kicking in. Hope it works for ya, on my RF spoiler I just used the two center studs and 3m double sided tape on the ends so far so good.

I will be double side taping the sides for sure. I'm not drilling. But the center 2 studs are too short to reuse the originals. The other 2 use the OE ones though.

I have a Ron Fellows spoiler in a box in my garage, I can measure the length of the studs if it is needed
you wouldn't happen to still have that spoiler do you?
I bought a used one and the studs on the sides are missing. I just need to know how long they are. I circled the one in pink I need for the length of the measurement.

Threaded portion is 3/4”. Entire fastener from top to bottom is 15/16”.
