Does anyone know where where I might source one of these?

Would obviously then need to take it somewhere to be fibreglassed in but I do like the look of them.

I’ve managed to source a mk2 grille and winglets as well so want to try and match it all in to the style of the mk2/3.

TIA

Can't answer your question but there was a choice of rear spoiler on a MK2/MK3 , of course the designer of the Tuscan Convertible wouldn't allow TVR put the large wavy spoiler on because it was so ugly and useless (other than it's ability to hold 2 litres of water and float ducks in it ) smile .

It’s not an item to be stuck on like the Mk1 S spoiler. It’s fully part of the boot lid panel. The peak of the boot lid curvature blends into the middle of the spoiler, the two duck ponds are caused by the dips in the boot lid. It’s a whole boot lid panel you need. Someone fitted it to the full convertible and did a really good job, pictures on Facebook groups somewhere.

That surprises me since a Targa boot lid is only supported by one strut and would not fit a convertible , I would like to see a photo smile

P.S. It would really ps off Damian McTaggert the designer hehe

Something to bear in mind is that the spoiler can bend the lid. That’s happened on my mk2 and it’s chuffing annoying. If anyone knows whether is can be restored in a way that won’t require repainting, please let me know!

The convertible with the wavy spoiler . . .




Although looking at it now he might have glassed that on and not replaced full lid.

Comparison of my Mk2 with the boot lid blend into the peak of spoiler . . .

My 2006 TuscanS had the larger rear spoiler I think it rather suited the car although over the years stress cracks appeared in the corners where it met the boot lid, probably why the next owner had it changed to the smaller one.

I'm guessing that was the Cat 'D' car featured in SPRINT Nov'24 ... his Brother does body repairs
