Disco 1 Spoiler?

<< < (2/4) > >>

lee celtic:
I thought the spoilers fitted to 4x4's were to redirect air down over the rear window to clear it of water and road grime.

I don't have one fitted and still have 2.5 tons of down force ;)

SteveGoodz:
I've knew of a couple of D1's with rear spoilers. They had nothing to do with aerodynamics and increasing downforce but they did keep the rear window clear of spray and muck in rainy conditions. Not cheap though  :)

ben_haynes:
yes i see one the other week and thought why oh why but it had full body kit n and i assumed it was land Rovers attempt at the Pajero Evo Rallyart, it would be ripped or in seconds down lanes or off road sites

Disco Matt:
Sounds as though the locals hereabouts weren't swayed by bits of stick-on plastic then! I was thinking it might have some benefits in terms of keeping the rear window clean rather than anything else.

It might be ok on lanes, if you look at it branches would probably tend to slide over it rather than catching and ripping it off?

 full kits is about 400 and spoiler is about 125 from rimmer bros
