As I understand it, having been following this project on another forum for a year almost, its not going to be "functional" as if it was it would rip the boot lid off the car... lol

It is purely to show what can be done and that he can make the middle part of the spoiler swivel :) - Guess it might have moved on since I last read up on the project though!

Still an interesting project... would be interesting to see some newer pictures

you should read up on it ive moved on quite a bit planning to remake spoiler out of carbon fibre and mount onto bootlid so it will be able to be acessed and hollow the spoiler will be functionional and should slow the car down in theory. ill post the link to the xpowerfourms.
