I was thinking bend/flex rather than shatter, and since my spoiler is black on a red car, rubber or urethane elastomer would keep the stock appearance without hearing that gawd-awful grinding sound coming in or out of every driveway that you can't approach at an angle.

If I can put together one, would any of you be interested?

Seen metal strips and full metal underbody plates put in, not sure how a rubber spoiler will help you tho.

never heard of that. You must have been dreaming... but a good idea. This is how people start making tons of money.

I read/heard somewhere that Euro TRs had a rubber front spoiler as an option. Anyone know anything about this? My US 88TR front spoiler is basically trashed due to driveways, speedbumps, etc. and the thought of paying $700-1,200 for a chunk of thin fiberglass that is going to get trashed again is against my better judgement. Was I dreaming when I hears/read about this? Are there aftermarket front spoilers that are less expensive? My front end seems to be very low compared to other TRs I've seen (strictly visual comparison). Is there a quick and easy way to adjust the front ride height or are we replacing springs? I asked a similar question earlier in the year - the answer at that time seemed to be a roller underneath to spare the spoiler, but the one I have is trashed, so I wanted to explore all possibilities.
Thanks in advance!
Patrick
