Mechanical Spoiler
Ok, as stupid and ricey as this is, im realy sorry but this is something soo original and so exotic i dont think anyone else has done this, at least not to a tib, im actualy thinking of devising a way for my spoiler to be electionicaly controled, specificaly thinking of having the stock spoiler go down and like cuddle into the top of the hatch, it only needs to move like 3" or 4" down. Im basicaly looking for a simple inexpensive way to control the spoiler moving up or down, lol, im ready to accept all rants. I actualy got inspired to think about doing this like the Buggati Veyeron has its spoiler. I just dont need the whole thing to adjust and all, i just want it to basicaly only go straight up and down. Possible? hard? costly?

to look realy cool and ricey, lol, btw Boxters had that, i just remembered, but i dont want it to open up when i reach 65MPH like the boxters have it, i wanna be able to control it mechanicaly with the flip of a switch, im pretty sure someone around here has to have some idea on how to do it. i dont think it would be that hard, i just dont know how.

No, im expecting +15WHP lol, of coarse its just for show, the stock spoilers are in no way efective at any speed, maybe at like 250, but no tib will reach that speed in a loooooooooooonnnng time unless its falling off the 3rd story, its strictly for show, and im not plannign on getting one like in the pic, i wanna do it to the stock spoiler, the Buggati Veyeron Spoiler is indeed ugly but its highly efective cuz it automaticaly adjusts itself to carspeed and changes its angle automaticaly etc., i dont want something that hightech lol, keep in mind that car has a 250+mph speed lol.

but if its for show only, then why do you need it to adjust? Seems pointless to me and you will probably spend a lot of money for the spoiler and to hook it up, and then its just gonna be for show?

i agree with tibby chick.. i think that you should put whatever money you wouldhave spent on that and put it into something that will actually do something, i.e. performance, I.C.E., something where all your money will yield a better reward than watching a piece of metal rise 1" for no reason...if you need creative ideas im sure we could help you out...for example im going to see if i can make it so i can control my windows with my keyless entry remote...

its strictly for show, i DONT want it to be adjustable, btw Bryce your like sooo freaking helpfull always, but i did a search on a corados and all it gave me was like pics of snakes, i never heard of the car before. Also TC i was thinking that it would be fairly simple and cheap, i mean, just for it to move two inches down? probably drill a hole underneet or something, idk.
