Project C1 gets a spoiler

In this video, I finally get around to installing the spoiler that I bought a while ago. I bought it from someone who was breaking a C1 and it was originally white. I ended up painting it and it looked pretty well… until I decided to sand and polish… that’s what essentially ruined it! It’s a factory spoiler anyway, so I decided to take it down to the gel coat and start to repaint it.

I wanted to install it with an M6 riv nut and bolt to match along with some tiger seal to make damn certain that it wouldn’t come off. Problem with that is that the hinge has a lot of internal structure to it when the rubber sealing gasket is taken off. There is however a drilling hole from factory which I decided to use. Ended up settling on tiger seal and a couple of large self-tapping screws. Strictly speaking with tiger seal, these screws aren’t necessary, but I decided on using them anyway just to be certain that the spoiler won’t fall off.
