Thank you, Lance.
And thank you again for everything you did on the VS-Forged group buy, without which I would not have bought these wheels.
...and for suggesting the VS-03, as I had previously chosen a different style until you pointed out the similarities to the stock Gyrodynes. I like these wheels more and more every time I look at the car!

I have a trunk spoiler on my (kind of) coupe. Looks ok, but I won't copy it onto my F-type.

Default Jaguar spoiler is now accessary in catalog

I also wanted a spoiler for my f type. On 2019 models they are standard. I knew it could be put on mine if i even had to change bigger pieces. Then in jan 2019 i found it in the f type accessory catalog. I live in san diego, ordered it from sacramento jaguar, and took to my friend with collision shop to match paint. Takes about 10 minutes to change, so makes it easy to switch out. Cost of spoiler $1400 and paint was $400. Sure makes car look good it love its originsl jaguar stuff.

How did you disable the electric spoiler mechanism?

The factory spoiler kit comes with a bypass unit. I purchased this unit separately when I added the Paramount CF Wing to my car.

No one makes a small lip spoiler, so I bought two small spoilers and cut them up to make one (three-piece) to fit.
I realize many will not accept a modification such as this, but I am all about modding, and I can remove this in minutes if I ever choose.





Piecha and Arden both make a similar small spoiler, but they are larger and rather expensive. Besides, I like doing my own mods... fun hobby.


would you consider making more of these? I would totally buy one!

Mishkad-
I considered this, but cutting the parts just right, the painting, and installing is rather difficult, and I don't have any control over installation. Properly cutting the pieces to fit the boot would require the car for test fitting and re-cutting... and my car already has a spoiler installed. The spoiler material is a straight piece of flexible rubber-like material, so you have to take great care when installing to get the curvature and placement right.
If you are really interested in this, and you don't want to do it yourself, I would suggest you talk to a bodyshop and show them pictures to see if they would do it for you.
Thank you for your interest though!
