Even though I enjoy modding cars myself, I'm finding it difficult to like that particular spoiler.

I just doesn't seem integrated enough, or big enough to be worth doing.

regards.

I like the new Zeintec spoiler for the 987s (see related post) and it goes up & down like the stock one. However, the price is steep...not sure what the one you are talking about costs though.

Tech Art type I rear spoiler for the Cayman; $689 at GMP (One of our most excellent sponsers)

Not sure if it will allow the use of the move-able stock spoiler or if it would have to be disabled.

It's ugly. The only spoiler that looks any good is the GT.

I have the Techart Type 1 on my Cayman; I like it alot more than I thought I would. The GT style is defintely more noticeable, but the Type1 gives the rear a nice addition without looking too over-the-top.

You will need your dealer to deactivate the stock rear spoiler before installation.

I think I saw one for sale recently on CaymanClub.

Yeah. Thanks for the comment guys. It seems that people just hate it or love it. There is no in between.

I just bought one and I tried mounting it to work with the spoiler and you can do it with some slight modifications. I have photos right here:

In case you're interested, here's a good set of spoilers for caymans and I'm i/p with making a custom one that's close to the speedart one that can go up and down

I kinda like the Farnbacher loles and the strosek. Anyone has any ideas of the price?

go to caymanclub.net and do a search. they have the price list posted and you get 15% off if you're a board member. The farnbacher loles is not available; they lost the mold

Hi, for those who installed the Type 1 spoiler on the car, does the spoiler really need to be hard installed (screw through the trunk) ? Or it is possible to just stick it on with industrial strength glue?
