Giving back shocks the old "bounce test" and snapped off the spoiler (dumb) although it was about to go anyway. It broke at the bases of the plastic which I assume is common. Suggestions to 1) piece it back together b/c the spoiler itself looks great 2) get ahold of another one

Thanks!

 

i think this is self explanatory

 

Why would you pull on the spoiler to bounce the car ?

dude get ready for

 

i think you can buy the plastic brackets, fairly cheap.

 

Fadrvr is that a se-l emblem on your car???

 

Haha i think it is.

 

I believe its a 15 dolla part from the dealer ship. I know I gotta fix mine, its loose

 

Thats really unfortunate, i know my friend tried to do the same to my car and i actually punched him in the face, they're not metal and they do break easily. Even by sitting a child on it can cause cracks.

 

that is why i never put 1 of those damn things on my trunk lid. they're a pain in the a$$.

 

hmm.. i guess it can happen to anyone?

 

well GL on fixing it.!!

 

very common issue that the wing snaps at the base..
everyone I know who had a wing, that's what happened..
smae for my 96 SE.. that's why I opted for a GLE/GL trunk lid now.. no wing

 

If you buy the parts to fix the wing, post up some pics, prices and part numbers if you can. This way we have them if anyone else needs them down the road. There is a lot of us that have the factory wings and would like to keep them if this happens. Thanks!

 

yeah my car was stuck in a snow storm once, and some guys came to help me but pushed on the spoiler instead of the trunk due to it being covered by snow, but hey it happens, can't really blame anyone. i was fortunate to keep my spoiler by getting the kit at nissan.

 

yea buy the new part for it and should all be good.

 

yeh my bro's jack@** friend jumped on my trunk and pulled the base off...

 

... one thing i don't get.. when you start to apply pressure on the wing.. dont you feel like its gonan snap... My woman always pulls the spoiler up with force to see if the trunk is closed and it drives me nuts... i just dont get it.. i mean cant you tell that obviously its not the most sturdy thing on the car...

 

Anyone have the part number for this? My dealer told me I have to buy a new wing.

 

Punch her in the face every time she does it, I'm sure she'll stop eventually.

 

The part number for the plastic clip is 96032G
The plastic clips costs like $4.10 for all four

and there is a grommet for it which the part number is 96032J
The grommet costs $1.97 for all four.

edit:
For the whole spoiler, some people are going to be digging deep in there pocket.
The cost for the spoiler which comes with the rubber gasket is $559.76.
On top of that you need the 4 nuts to hold it down in the middle which costs $0.12 each.
and then you need the parts I listed above, clips and the grommet

 

Thats unfortunate and some dealerships will try to sale u more than u realy need

 

sticky this just in case lol..because of the part numbers

 

Yes it is, Thats how i bought it. They are no longer on the car!
