how about a page with all the found info on front and rear spoilers in one place, like a showroom. place a picture of the product, who sales it and a link.

there seems to be a lot of questions about these. i know i would appriecate this.

you could do this with all body components

thanks

that sounds pretty good. i know also that a lot of topics in the brakes and suspension topics are also heavily repeated

Also you could make an option for sorting the threads by type ( ex. 944 or 1302>1303) for suspension but also for anything else this could save web space in the run and provide quicker search result with much more accuracy

Carbon Fibre Kamei style airdam from LA Performance in the uk.
Shallower than the Kamei by about 1-2 inches, so more ground clearence if your lowered.

Made a big difference to stability at speeds over 50 mph, less 'jittery' on the road.

Top in the picture (above rear window) is my Remmelle style carbon spoiler (from carbon joe), again made a noticible difference at speeds over around 60mph.

Lower one in the above picture (on engine lid) is a kamei engine lid 'spoiler', no noticible performance difference, but keeps the rain out of the engine bay.


I also have a kamei airdam at home, and pictures of it on the car... Will dig out and post some images.

Is the only one I have of it at the moment, it is deeper than the carbon one I have, is ABS plastic, as opposed to carbon fibre (it can take far more abuse before cracking) and the fit is just as good.

Feel free to use the above pictures/info.

Hello Vinz,

I wish we had more pictures of Remmele products ! :D

There is a picture of a silver Remmele beetle I have from about 4 years ago that has been the inspiration for my GL.

I'd love to get a rear roof spoiler and a small front chin spoiler to complete the look.

Welcome to the site !

OK, I'll contact ZEN !

And what do you think about the Remmele spoiler ?
I would like to have your feeling about this spoiler ....
Do you think it's cool, or too much ????

If somebody have other pictures with beetles equiped with this spoiler ?

I think it's a great touch an a 1303 German .... I would like to buy this part (maybe), thats why I "need" your" opinion !

Thanks in advance
Vinz

Vinz,

Thanks for the offer. Sorry for the slow reply. Have some house issues I have been dealing with. You can either email them (webmaster@germanlook.com) to me or PM me if the size is too large and you want to send me a CD. I will get my address to you.

It may be a little before they are posted. I am working on a new gallery system that will make this much easier and would rather drop them in there.

Thanks again.
