Has anyone fitted a Sagaris rear spoiler on their T350 on using just 2 of the aluminium brackets (rather than 4)?

If so where are the 2 brackets positioned?

Is the spoiler stable?

Pictures if possible would be a big help!

Thanks.

I was over at TVR Barnet late last week and there was T350 with a Saggy spoiler on the back. It looked ok, was fitted with just two brackets, equally spaced.

I think it suits the Saggy better, IMHO.

Its a lot of grief. you will need aluminium pyramid spacers between the body and the bracket as you can see, to make the air brake miss the body work.

Thanks for that.

I can just about make out the washers from the picture. I've managed to source the brackets and the rear spoiler. But where did you get the washers from?

I made them myself. I will take a close up picture and load it on for you to have a look at tomorrow. Paul (tailslide) may be able to help more as he has the air brake on his T350 also.

That's great thanks. Did you CNC machine them?

The wheels are the Works and can be bought from that very nice man Tim from ACT. They are 18x8.5 with 255 rear and 225 front tyres.

Hey...

This is my old motor with Sag Spoiler attached.

Bodyshop did a great job, made up the washer/spacers (which need to go on the top) as well as cutting down the bolts to fit and made up a backing plate to ensure it didn't fly off...

I moved the badge to the side on mine so I could get the 3 brackets on. I made the spacers up out of Ally

They look awfull, they look ok on on a sag as it matches the rest of the car, I've seen one in the flesh and it doesn't match lines on the T350 at all. On a T350 im sorry but it looks MAX POWER.

I had to reduce the height and shape to fit as a standard one leaves a gap in the middle and overhangs the sides. Mine is a constant small gap and fits perfectly. The previous T350 I had needed modification of the central bracket to fit over the badge as it also released the boot. This car has a button above the number plate like the door release.

i always thought the t350 was one of the most attractive cars i'd driven. why anyone would want to stick a sagaris spoiler on it is beyond me. it suits the sagaris but really looks like a piece of halfords plastic on a t350.

Best not fit one then.

agree with these sentiments, really spoils the beautiful clean lines of the T350 . Shame to see so many above with them fitted.

Raja and Smithy,

comments perhaps a little harsh?

Trevor started a company which produced roughly 25,000 cars and around 15,000 still exist. Very few are the same which is healthy. If we were all the same and liked the same car things would be in a bad state.

Enjoy your cars the way they are and let us do the same
