Raising the spoiler without GT4 Blocks ? Options

[Chovies]

I'm looking to add a bit of height to the rear spoiler as i think it doesn't really work to well on the car but i don't particularly like the style of those GT4 Riser Blocks I've seen around and just wanted to know if there were any other aftermarket options for the 6th Gen Celica ?

Cheers
Anthony

there's also the euro riser blocks. They're about half the size I wanna say, of the GT Four ones and are smooth with no wording on it.
Other than that I do believe, you either gotta make your own riser blocks or change your spoiler.

^+1 just a FYI. The euro riser is going to cause the spoiler to be right in the middle of your rear windshield. So it'll be hard to see.

Your options for raising the stock spoiler are the GT4 blocks, which you've already ruled out, the Euro riser blocks, or the DCW half riser blocks. The half riser blocks are basically just GT4 blocks, but half as tall.

Euro blocks:



DCW riser blocks:





Otherwise, it's all aftermarket spoilers.

^damn, that thing was a beauty back in 2005

[cheela]

ah yes. I forgot about the DCW ones.

Had never seen the DCW ones... they look better than the GT-4 IMO, smoother curves. I bet the spoiler sits right where you can't see anything back though.

i bet too, the GT4/SS3 spoiler blocks the view, but you still have a bit of a rectangular strip of vision below it.

those half sized blocks will most definitely be in the way, but you'll see above it, so peoples following distances have to be further or you cant see them

[Chovies]

Yea those Euro/ Half blocks are perfect for what im looking at thanks everyone, now i just need to find them haha.

[cheela]

I've been looking for a pair myself. Good luck.

[delusionz]

make them fibreglass some **** up sand it back to the shape u want

ya the dcw is what i'd like on my car as well. but it will definitely block your vision. the gt4/ss3 not so much.

eurou blocks are hard as hell to find from my recolection.

Something about the angle of the GT4 spoiler you really don't see it much - just a thin black line in my rearview mirror.

Noob question but can you use the gt4 riser blocks on the stock usdm spoiler? Just want to make sure.

As long as it's the pre-facelift two post spoiler, yes.

^What he said. As long as your spoiler looks like this you're good.

The euro spoiler doesn't block vision too badly... I can still see that cars are behind me...


And at night it perfectly blocks their incorrectly angled beams...

Thanks for the info guys! much appreciated. Will probably get riser blocks and jdm tails very soon. Also i'm watching your thread peg, keep it coming!

Hell yeah! I got a pair now and I don't mind when a truck is tailing me.
