Rear Spoiler - Close Call!

[Heath1984]

Thank god for this forum, just about to spend over £300 on a rear spoiler so thought I'd check out comments first only to find that some people don't fit them since they have bike racks!! I've made stupid mistakes while converting this van but that might have topped them all. Gutted as I really wanted the spoiler.
I think I'll tell the wife I've just changed my mind

couple of options spring to mind.

there is a spoiler that can be fitted with bike racks. . . . ( i think) ?

or get the tow bar mount bike carrier?

You need an ABT one like this

This is probably the one you're thinking of, but I don't think THQ have actually released it yet.

What about the new mini spoiler from THQ. That may work too.

This Transporter stealth spoiler has sharper edges and more striking angles than just standard Transporter spoilers while still remaining understated.

It seems there is nothing the members of this forum like more than spending other members money!

Or you can cut a spoiler to fit over the bike rack.

Thinking of getting one of these. My one question though, how high does it sit on the tail gate? Thanks

Height above tailgate is 75mm. When tailgate open, it does not got the pop top. It does get close but that’s ok

Meant to type hit not got ( bloody autocorrect )

Top man, thanks! I’m not fitting a pop top but maybe a bike rack. Just nervous about some of the carpark barriers
