Kamei front spoiler questions...

[vwtype53 at yahoo.com (Benjamin Harder)]

Well, first of all... whoever told you that it would possibly fit
must be an idiot.  Oh yeah, that was me.  hehe...

Anyhow, the way I would do this is to take the original GTI
front spoiler and sit it next to the mk1 rocco Kamei spoiler...
how much wider is the Kamei?  If it is too wide, then one 
not-so-fun solution is to cut the Kamei down the middle and
remove a small section to make the width correct, and then
use layers of fiberglass to join it together...

Or the best idea here is to give it to Jason, (who works at a
body shop, right?) and have him graft it in place.

And if that fails... drive to Cincy and I'll put it on for ya!  ;)

Good luck!

Ben
