Default Rk sport spoiler is a bitch to install!!!

Well what I thought was going to take an hour tops took 3 and half hours of course an hour of that was spent laughing at all of Jeff's **** jokes There was the 15 minute break while we had to clear the garage after dinner didn't quite agree with me but we perservired and got the damn thing on.

When we first started I could almost swear it wasn't going to fit on there but after all is said and done, throwing out the plastic snap fastners and replacing with the ricer tried and true nut and bolt it fits pretty good, not perfect but the factory ground effects aren't perfect.... Hell the factory PANELS aren't perfect.

Jeff took some pics I'm going to try and get some this weekend after I wash it right now it looks like a shiney spoiler with fingerprints all over it on a brown car!

Thanks Jeff truely could not have tackled the project alone! Plus the paint does look beautiful

Well if you'd get that beast out of your garage I'll be over You could use the practice.... Oh I forgot to tell you, you can get the 5.3 in aluminum....

I am jones'n though I just haven't decided on valve springs...

I could do 918's and stock retainers- 152 (I could always add titan. retainers when I have money out my ***)
SDPC Manleys with titanium retainers -204
RPC set with duals and retainers- 269-279

I think I'm going to make a post...

Ya, I know they come in aluminum. They're just as expensive as a 5.7 though. I believe the trailblazers and SSR's are the alum versions right?
