Zx3 Rear Roof Spoiler.....? - SL8RZZX3 - 03-19-2005
I'm trying to decide on a rear spoiler and keep coming back to the same one.......
It's not ford or aftermarket though, so i'm having a hard time with it.
I'm thinking of trying a Kia Rio RX-V roof spoiler :unsure: :blink:
I kinda like the way it would wrap around the ZX3/5 tails
Any thoughts?
So let the flaming begin.......... :lol: :lol:

I cant see how it would fit. I was laughing at a RIO today, they are very narrow cars(?).

The RX-V is the wagon style and some have a roof wing that would mount like the S2 wing
I wish I could find a decent pic i'd post it

When I say narrow I mean by a foot. My Subaru wagon is about the exact same exterior dimensions as a Focus (ZX5) and a RIO wagon looked miniscule in comparison. There surely must be easier ways to get the look you want such as universal parts, Subaru wagon parts, Suzuki wagon parts............

Is this what you mean? This is from the KIA.
I can't believe I downloaded this crap.

The things I do
The Focus is 66.7" wide and the Rio is 65.9. Not that far off really.

I'll add the Mitsu wagon to my list of potential donors too.
After seeing the picture of the RIO roof spoiler I know it wont fit, unless you raise it many inches due to that downturn at the edges. If you did that I am pretty much convinced meford4U will kill you dead.

Yes
Don't put KIA parts on my NA cars.
I am now disgusted with myself for aiding this idea.

Yeah you guys are right.....
The angles of the hatches are too different and it would end up retarded :huh:
Thanx for the help guys B)

We are just opinionated. There is no reason for you to take either of us seriously or give either of our opinions value. We've been called FUCtards before, rightly or wrongly.

Well i'm not sure i really want to cover up my european lexus style tails anyway B)

I'm sure you'll find something else that fits... what about a not-too-angular spoiler from the WW collection of parts? Have you checked there? It just popped into my head. :)

Not really a big fan of WingsWest......... other than the w-type lip kit.
But i already have my kit, and a 3 piece mid wing(knock-off i think).
the 3 piece isn't going on 'cause i have other plans for the hatch............
I might just say screw it and get the north viking WRC wing :lol: :rofl:
(jokes............. maybe ;) )

habmann you are awsome!!
that's the exact one i've been looking for! I posted a pic in mitch's pre-order thread, but we were both stumped on where to find it. B)
Zx3 Rear Roof Spoiler.....? - habmann - 03-21-2005
No prob man, thats probably my fav spoiler for the hatch. I wonder if mitch can get it and how much it would be. Definately something i wouldn't mind looking into.
