I have a XS on order and have decided to put a spoiler on so I rang the dealer to get one factory fitted but was told it's too late as the car is about to be built.
Has anyone any suggestions where to buy one and are they easy to retro fit. Do they come ready painted or would I have to get it painted (Ipenema Sand). MY 2013 TD4 XS Manual, Ipanema Sand. Cold Climate Pack, Spare Wheel, Side Mouldings, Armrest Pack, Rear Camera, Detachable Tow Bar, Spoiler.

A fair few of us have this one;

It will require painting, fitting it is easy peasy. But you'll need stainless fixings to stop the supplied ones rusting.

Hope this helps. If you search, 'powerful uk spoiler' there's a fair few threads. 2013 FL2 - Black Edition Auto

I have the same one fitted as Jim.

I had my fittings spray painted to match the spoiler and to prevent the parts rusting. I paid £90 to have mine sprayed - fittings are some 3M tape and a bracket on each end - couldn't be easier

Haven't placed an order yet. Hopefully will make the finally decision next month.

Might surprise you all and order a new FL2. It's certainly on the cards.

Will do.

A big thanks to everyone for the replies and pics. Now know the way forward. It seems it will be cheaper than buying the factory fit one. MY 2013 TD4 XS Manual, Ipanema Sand. Cold Climate Pack, Spare Wheel, Side Mouldings, Armrest Pack, Rear Camera, Detachable Tow Bar, Spoiler.

Looking at the logistics operation at Halewood, pretty costly I would imagine, it seems a trivial matter but everything is delivered to the production line as and when needed, there isn't a pile of spoilers just ready to pick from, it is all mapped out beforehand and changing items will have a knock on effect somewhere, there is a cutoff date for a reason.

Those visiting Halewood at the end of this month will see this operation up close, it is pretty slick and seeing a flat sheet of steel being pressed, whisked around by robots, glued and welded together, painted, fitted with drivetrain, engine, interior and then coming off the end of the line as a finished item is pretty special.

May I recommend that you search the forum on the rear spoiler. There is more detail advisory notes on dry fitting to establish the exact location and using masking tape with pen marks for precise location when you finally use the adhesive. I fitted a genuine LR second hand spoiler £60? and paid £30 to a bodyshop for paint. A KEY pointer from me is to check the gap where the 3m adhesive goes; I needed 2 layers of 3M!

Spoiler from powerfuluk (£88 ) arrived last night and took it to a small local body shop today for painting. Will be ready on Tuesday cost £50 including painting the clamps and screws so well pleased. That's £138 total, well below factory fit cost. MY 2013 TD4 XS Manual, Ipanema Sand.
