to everyone curious or worried if this will ever fall off since its not bolted down Let me be your peace of mind. as long as its done right with good 3M tape it wont. I swapped from this spoiler to a ZL1 and I had an absolute bitch of a time getting this thing off.
Looks good, but I mounted my blade spoiler on to the existing spoiler. Got the idea, after installing the wicker spoiler on my Challenger. The wicker install required that you mount directly on the existing spoiler. I must say after mounting the blade on my Camaro' existing SS spoiler it gave the car a unique and awesome look. Thanks, for sharing your install.
I purchased a product two different times one using 3M tape that didn’t hold up too long once you go over 100 miles an hour it starts lifting in a little bit by the corner not very much but enough to notice then I use gorilla double-sided tape the next time which I thought was stronger same thing happened so I’m about to try to pop it off again and remove all then adhsieve and rub it down with alcohol just like I did before but I would like to know what is the way that this can be bolted on and now I have to worry about the tape peeling from high heat temperatures in certain states or high speed because the original spoiler on my ZL one has threaded holes already in it? So how do you make bolts work with the spoiler or is it just putting very short screws into it from underneath the trunk??
I’m so happy there is another 6Th gen SS owner that owns a 3rd gen bird! I thought I was the only one! Love the red on yours! Mine is Arctic White. I’ll post a video on them soon on my channel. Great video! Installing the same spoiler on mine soon! Subbed and notifications turned on!
I just did this install last week, thanks for the video! So far so good. Any issues with it getting wet at a car wash or going over 80+mph?? I’m worried it won’t stick if air gets under it and could rip off. Haven’t taken it on the freeway yet, but plan on trying this weekend.
Mike Harms This is still installed and we have had no issues👍🏼 The car is washed 1-2 times a week and it has also been taken on the track/drag strip at high speeds
Nice install vid. A few questions. From what u can tell, is this a replica of the GM Blade Spoiler? Also, how was the fit and finish? Are there any noticeable gaps once installed? How was the paint finish? Thanks.
Yes it's a Replica and the fit was perfect and it came in the same type of Gloss Black as the car. There are no gaps or anything, you just have to lay it down and install it right. This one is also made to cover the stock SS spoiler holes.
Next-Gen Speed hello I’m looking for this same blade spoiler as well as the blade wickerbill that zl1addons have for a 2016 Camaro LT. Can you send me a link to those items.
The Carbon Fiber ones cost a lott more and I'm also going with a gloss black/blue color scheme. If I got a Carbon Fiber spoiler, then I would want the rest of the black pieces to be Carbon Fiber also
Nice video, tell me does the ILE SS Camaro rear spoiler come in matte black? I'm going to have the hood done on my 2018 in a matte black vinyl wrap. Wasn't the rear blade spoiler also matte black finish in 2018?
Yes this is the only blade spoiler that covers all holes, made specifically for that. Bolts are not needed but can be added into the old holes, just make sure they are small and do not poke through the surface.
The Camaro I bought last had this already installed in matte black and the center spoiler piece was poorly installed by whoever did it. It’s been hanging on for a year, just haven’t had the time to take it off to fix it. Didn’t even know what brand the spoiler was until recently and this video is a life saver. Gonna order some tape and hope for a non cold weekend soon and fix the shoddy job.
Is there any way to install it by bolting it on? Does it have to be double sided tape? I want to order it but want to add a wickerbill and I need it to hold up
Is the i kon 1 LE blade spoiler the the same size as the Gm 1LE blade spoiler, , I seen another video where the two middle holes , one hole was exposed, your blade covers both the center holes, I have the GM 1 LE blade now and scared it might come out like yours! Excellent job you done...
Thank you! The Ikon is different than OEM, as OEM will not cover all holes for the LT/RS/SS/ZL1 models.. This one is made to extend and cover all holes
Hey bro I saw you didn’t use the paste it came with the spoiler. I just got mine with no tape, should I apply the paste only or buy the 3M tape to put as well?
This is the aftermarket style to cover all holes an does not require bolts, but they can be added as well. Track tested up to 170+ mph for 2 years no problem
On your website it says this spoiler is out of stock. Will it be back in stock ? I have a 2016 SS and all other spoilers I’ve seen don’t cover up the holes.
I have this spoiler and have tried multiple adhesive tapes. It never stays on... constantly begins to lift. I want to install a wicker bill but don't trust my spoiler will stay on to attempt that. Is there anything better than tape to better support? Also, had my vehicle wrapped and even after the installers re-applied it I'm still running in to this issue. Will more than likely find one with bolts because this is becoming a headache lol
Hello! I am sorry you are experiencing issues. The spoiler can still be bolted/screwed down, and they can be added in the original spot where the bolts were. Just make sure they aren’t too long🙂
@@NextGenSpeed How can this spoiler be bolted down, the Originals has threaded holes already made into it. I had the same issue using gorilla double stick tape instead of 3M already been through two of them and still get a small lift up on each corner in the front and I already use and he’s of tape as much as you can put underneath it how do you recommend using boats are you talking about using screws with washes in screw it into the bottom of the smaller but not going up to high with really short screws??
Excellent write-up my man, you covered everything and made the install look simple. I'm about to try this on my black '16 SS soon and want to thank you for this because everywhere I see this thing sold it always says does not include instructions and should be installed by a pro only.
Thank you! And yes it only comes with this video. We recommend professional installation for people who don't have any experience, but as long as you watch the video you will be alright.
Next-Gen Speed my car came stock with the blade spoiler and I want to remove it and add the 1LE Zl1 big wing. But I was worried that the holes won't match up with the wing
alpo0201 thank you for your reply. I got mine. And yes it took much longer than it normally does. But still, they need to upgrade their customer service .
I got mine installed by my local Chevy and idk what kind of tape they used.. it’s already peeling after 2 days lmao and I have a 2.0Camaro RS so definitely some sort of tape problem. Might have to do it myself Any issues with yours?
I've had mine on for almost 2 months with no issues. Grab some 3M Automotive Mounting tape from your local auto parts store and try it out yourself and you shouldn't have any issues.
Ever Urey We used 3M High Strength Automotive Tape for ours instead, but the Adhesive provided with the spoiler can be used also. It needs to be applied with a brush across the entire surface.
No not at all, once it's on there it's not coming off unless you use a crazy amount of force. You can pull up on it hard and it won't budge and i've also hit 130mph+ with no issues.
where are you here in michigan i have a 2016 convertible and thinking about changing my spoiler. have you seen a convertible with the changed spoiler yet?
Next-Gen Speed ok let me know when I can catch up with you. I want to see the blade in person. I ordered and received it. I’ll then decide if I want to paint it or leave the way it is.
Agustin Velasquez You have to clean the surface completely with a claybar/iso alocohol, and then you need to get some high strength 3M tape to the spoiler, and then apply the liquid adhesive provided in the box to the area where you are installing. Once it is on you will then need to apply pressure for a few minutes. We’ve had this installed on our shop car for almost a year with no peeling or issues, and have also been to the track and drag strip with it.
