Does anyone know of any aluminum spoilers that will actually fit the back of the MX-3???<P>Thanks, Aiden.

I don't think you should really try, maybe mount one on the roof and have it lay back really low to prevent drag. But putting a spoiler on the back of your car is supposed to create downforce at high speeds, it won't do any good on a front wheel drive vehicle. Still, some aluminum spoilers look good, all depends on the car.

i had a friend was driving his car<BR>it was a saturn fwd car and he was speeding<BR>the back tires did not hold traction and started to slide to the side and when he compensated for it it caught traction and he flipped three times<BR>i'm just saying spoilers on fwd cars can be important at high speeds

True, but I never liked Saturn (no offense to your friend). Things like this may be a problem with the MX-3 and other small cars because of the very light weight rear end. Then again overcompensation is a big thing to consider, its also a life taker in the wrong situation.<P>You can solve this problem any way you like, maybe a rear wing may be the right way. However another thing to consider, which I am, is mounting a modified aluminum wing on my hood as a lot of high speed stock cars do. It will certainly help at high speeds for the front wheels, rear wheels are simply a matter of weight dispersal<p>[ July 13, 2002: Message edited by: Hy300 ]

Would adding some weight by moving some parts of the car to the back help to eleviate this problem of bad traction, with a spoiler???<P>~A

Not too tall but not too short. I will sell it as soon as I find a low sitting CF wing.
