I remember seeing on here awhile ago about a rear spoiler for the Mark VIII. Is it available yet? Or is it not going to happen?

The 3 piece LMS one? Last I heard, Geno didn't want anything more to do with it and he was gonna sell the mold. I don't think there's been any news since then. The Gen 2's have the option of using a Taurus factory spoiler but the Gen 1's hump is too large.

Im not selling the mold. I do want to have this available again but you know the story, no one can make it in small runs , package and ship it too.

Define small runs...?? 10 to 20 a month?

yes

How many orders would you predict? I'm sure that anyone that agrees to produce them will want there to be an ongoing interest or one HUGE group buy.

One of the best looking for a Gen II is the Taurus SHO spoiler from, say 1997.

Well if we were to get a group buy how much are we looking at for one? Because I want to do some stuff to my Mark VIII and I was really looking forward to doing that spoiler

Been tried already, NO ONE wants to do these for under a hundred at a clip that I could find. Like I said I have the molds in the garage, just no one to make them.

No machinery at all. It is hand laid fiberglass in a clamshell mold. They have to be able to produce, package and drop ship the item. Trust me I have been trying for YEARS to get this done.

But if I was to find someone to make the spoiler how would I go about getting it made? Would I need you to make me a mold as well? Or would you of course ask the guy if he can make them for all of us?

If you made a spolier mold (which we already have) then you would be in the same boat as me, plus to get it initially made it would cost a fortune!! Our first one cost $4500.00 including the mold and that was 6 years ago.

If you saw our 3 piece unit then it was purchased on one of the three runs we ever did on them which consisted of 200 total.

Thats what it costs to have something made from scratch.

Fiberglass.

Here's a thought! What about taking a spoiler that "sort of" fits or "sort of" looks good, cutting into it and altering it? You could come up with an all new design. I thought about making a Saleen variant based on my S-281 wing off my mustang. Or, the 3-piece Camaro RS wing could "altered" work, couldn't it? ...no different that molding in a hood scoop, I would think.

A Mark VIII is not an aftermarket car. We're lucky for what we have. And for people like Geno who step up and throw money down...
