Please!

donno where any pics are. i just screwed mine up & omitted the brace bars.

Same here. I put mine on myself. I bought the Plastic style the has the "concours" look.
I thought $70+ for a piece of plastic was harsh, but I used the center bolt from the radiator brace, then drilled one more hole on each side to bolt it right on.
No brace bars for me either.

IMO-you'd be better off leaving the braces off. If you would happen to hit something in the road or a parking curb, you'd only be out a new plasitc spoiler whereas the braces can do damage to the lower fenders and valance. It's a pretty solid piece without the braces.

Thanks Guys!

I used the braces from the edges of the spoiler to the fender extensions on my 67. I bought it a few months back and it is already cracking near the outside, it might be in a bind the way I installed it. I am going to try removing the end braces.

I recommend installing the braces. The front spoiler "droops" without them and does not maintain the correct angle. Also under wind pressure, an unbraced spoiler pulls at the sheet metal screws on the valance. Remember, the factory had a good reason to spend money on metal braces :D

Just don't run into any curbs!

I haven't had a problem at all by not using the braces ( 7 yrs.) The spoiler has kept it's shape, and lookls good. I'd rather replace a spoiler than a valance panel.

If anyone does have pics it would help.. I am assembling my '68 vert and have the front spoiler kit(with braces) to install... Thanks in advance.!!

Buy an assembly manual. They are an invaluable resource during a resto project.

Thanks a bunch Rod, It is a valuable resource.. been using it during the process already, but thanks for that handy tip.... :waving:
