Front spoiler
I am looking for a front spoiler that mounts under the bumpers of the 67-72 chevy trucks. If anyone has one or know where I could find one, please let me know. I wish someone would start making them again. I wish I could find a mold of them.
Thanks a lot, Carnell |

Re: Front spoiler
I fabricated it out of a piece of 3"tubing. You can see the details here;

Re: Front spoiler
I remember a guy on eBay was selling them. And I believe that is the one. It is the only one I've seen. I really like it too. It's metal not plastic. Thanks for posting the site. Now I want one.

Re: Front spoiler
Why did I look , now I want one. They are sharp and will distinguish your truck from everyone elses. I think they would look especially good on a 71-72 Chev Burb.

Re: Front spoiler
I'm curious as to what that will do to your fuel mileage.
I've read that a little spoiler like that cleans up the air under the vehicle and IMPROVES gas mileage.

Why not go to the Chevy dealer and buy one as I did. They are like $35.00. They are plastic and easly mount and if you hit a bump they can take it without ripping it off. Mine has hit many times. You can see the road scares up close.
If my memory serves me right it's for the 80's model chevy trucks. You can cut it with a razor knife. ![]() ![]()

Re: Front spoiler
Andy, do you have more information/pics on how you mounted air dam? Is it just bolted to the bottom of the bumper? Dees it bolt to the fender? Did you have to cut down/modify it to fit or just for looks?
Sorry for all the questions, I am just excited! ![]()

![]() ![]() As I said it's plastic so you can make it look anyway you want it to. I took 2 small c-clamps and centered it and drilled the holes. It took me a couple of times centering it but I had no help. ![]() ![]() This is the inner fender mounts I made. ![]() ![]() ![]() A couple of more of it.

Re: Front spoiler
A guy at Brothers truck show last year had one on his truck from a late 90's Tahoe. It looked real good, like the factory put it there.

Re: Front spoiler
I wonder if they really do help fuel mileage? I would get one if I knew it would help. Anybody running one that has seen an improvement in fuel economy?

Sorry can't say either way. I've had so many mods done over the years it's hard to say. I can't see it helping enough though to notice. Just my cents worth!
