another SS spoiler question

Ok I am going to order an SS spoiler for my 96 z28 off of Thespoilercompany on ebay(I heard good things about this company). Im wondering if it just bolts right on or do I have to do any modifications. Do I just unplug my brake light and plug this one in?

Hey guys, I ordered a SS Spoiler on Mar 2nd and still nothing yet. How long did it take for any of you guys who ordered one to get it back? I can't imagine it taking to long, 1 day to process order, 1 day to paint and dry, 1 day to ship, WTF?

Just check out how many spoilers the spoiler depot sells in a day. It could take several days for them to paint it. I ordered one non-painted on a Friday and received it the following Tuesday I believe. If you want I can give you there phone number for customer service? I had a problem with my first one and had to send it back. There customer service is really good so im hoping it was just a fluke.

Talking SS spoiler

Thanks Doc, I just received an email with a tracking number from thespoilerfactory. The spoiler will be arriving this Thurs. I guess 2 weeks are better than never. I'll post pics as soon as I get it installed, thanks again.

Has anyone had any fitment issues with this spoiler? how close did the paint match your car? I'm thinking of ordering it.

I'll let you know in a couple of days, UPS will be delivering it sometime tomorrow and I'll install it first thing Fri. morning. Maybe, I'll call in sick from work and stakeout the UPS truck and install it after I receive the package. Either way,I'll let you know and I'll post pics by Sat, can't wait!

The spoiler I recieved had an excessive mount of space between the spoiler and the fender. It seemed about 3/8” too much on either side. I talked to them about it and they said it might have just been taken out of the mold too quick and shrunk more then usual. They sent a USP guy to pick it up last week and now im waiting on the replacement that should be here any day now.

Please refer to the ls1tech links I posted here for others reviews ithttps://www.camaroz28.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=736018

SS spoiler

Hey fellows, installed the spoiler this morning and gotta say it looks awesome. Im happy with the spoiler, fits well and the color is right on. I guess my Z hasn't faded to much over the years. I'll try to post a few pics in the next couple of days. I do have an issue though, my ABS light is on now. I wonder if it tripped the circuit when I installed the LED light, and no I did not wire the positive and negative wires together. I'll give it a few days to see if it rectifies itself, if not I'll play with the fuses, I guess, any suggestions fellows?

You must wire in a resistor inline with the LED light wiring. Very simple and cheap. Do a search and you can find out the exact value resistor you need.

Question ABA light

Just got back in from outta town and it's time to fix this issue once and for all. I have the hardware, the resistor. Now, can someone walk me through the process? I'll remove the LED light and then?
