As above, no at the standard angle.

The Spoon mounts are quite wide so hope I will be able to run a few more degrees without it deforming. I'm sure if I put it at full angle it would.

The wing looks better further back on the boot lid. Also drilling a couple of extra holes in the mounts and angling it slightly back looks cool.

I removed my lower level spoiler.



Love the look of this!

No mate, they are Honda Modulo access S2000 wheels, I've just had them done in Audi grey. They look very similar to the Accord but they are the oem 17" size and offset for S2k. I found them on ebay in Croatia and had them shipped across last year, quite a rare wheel to get hold off, especially with the centre caps too.

Anyone know if lower risers are available for the Spoon spoiler?

I have made some in CAD and had a quote to get them laser cut, but want to make sure its cost effective.

Thanks

I initially thought the same!

I'd completely forgotten those Modulo wheels were offered. A bit on the heavy side IIRC (now!).

I would like some lower risers for my Spoon wing. What's prices have you received?

I quite like this shape:

So far I have been quoted £50 for a pair in 8mm Aluminium.

The ones I designed are a very similar design to the stock ones, but are 70mm lower.

I am planning on making another version with fewer cuts to hopefully reduce the cost, but also put more of a rearward angle on the risers.

I am sure I can get them cheaper if more are ordered. So if there is interest, please let me know and I will get quotes for more to hopefully reduce the cost.

Could you share a picture of the new risers to show the new positioning compared to the current
