Default Looking for some dimensions on a tC spoiler. Please Help!

Hello

I don't own a Scion, but am interested in the Spoiler that i see on many tc's to be used on another car with some modification (if necessary).
I was hoping that one of you who owns this spoiler could take some dimensions for me before i go tracking one down for mock up.

This is the spoiler i am referring to:



If possible i'd like to get these dimensions:

Overall width end to end at the widest point.
How long the mounting bosses are, like front to back.

Also, does this Spoiler usually bolt on, or is it held with some sore of adhesive?

Thank you in advance!

Dont know the dimensions but it is held on by 4 screws and some double sided tape. On this one you have to use the screws unlike the lip spoiler where you can just used double sided tape.

may i ask you you need the dimensions?

here is the pdf on the install. If you do it yourself you can by an install sheet that shows you where to drill and stuff.

i know you might hate on the idea, but stay open to it if you can!

I want to mount it to the hatch of a MKIV 2003 VW GTI.

I saw it the other night and thought it'd be a cool hatch spoiler that's a little more than the OEM VW lips, but not some crazy protruding picnic wing like the ones that are out there.

My car has a motorsports-like styling to it and thought it'd be interesting to see what it'd look like, even if i get one to mock up and if i don't like it i'll just flip it you know?

Here's my car, if the mods allow





I'm in the process of boosting it as we speak as well

I wish i could find a photo of the spoiler at the right angle, and i'd photoshop it to get an idea.

i had a feeling i'd get that response lol

but yeah i respect it, i had it coming for even conceiving the thought i guess haha.

My car was not boosted from the factory, it's a 2.8 liter 24 valve VR6. It's smaller displacement of the R32 engine, but almost identical in every other way.

Turbo is a Precision 6165, with 630cc Injectors. Going to run around 12psi. I'm hoping for somewhere around 400whp from what i've seen with a similar sized turbo at that boost. Then i'll up it and see what i can push number wise, but 400 wheel is more than enough on the street daily driver for now

I'm still going to get one cheap, and mock it up....i'll post a pic...but it's the only way to really know what it will look like...if it looks like ____, i'm not doing it

Ressurection an ancient thread...
I'm also wanting the dimensions for the tC Spoiler.
I just want to know the outer width of the 'feet', the length of the ends, and how wide the spoiler is at the front and rear tips.
any responses with those measurements will be greatly appreciated.
