    Smile Spoiler in up position needs paint.

    On your lighter color cars...the spoiler looks weak-sauce on the underside.If I ever use the spoiler again i will have the underside painted all black.

    Was kind of neat actually seeing Spoiler go up from out side the car when I did dyno the other day.

    Just noticed your post, Plate is 61L V12, Many think it's for 6.1L V12 but it's just a random number generated plate that I have had on a bunch of cars. Some day I need to find a car with that engine to put it on

    Shall we put flashing LEDs under the spoiler in the up position? It would be nice if there was a CF version available.
