    Its definitely not a VX Clubsport spoiler. It does resemble one, however the VX Clubsport spoilers are a lot bigger. The flares on the ends are a lot more distinctive.

    I would be more inclined to say its a VX S Pac spoiler.

    I think its a VX S-pac spoiler, as dad had it on his VX and that had an s-pac body kit on it.

    Looks like a very unusual spoiler...i'd say its definately not a S-Pac spoiler but might be a custom fit.

    They arent. The VX SS is the same as the VT Clubsport spoiler.

    VX SS:



    VT Clubsport:







    Youll notice it doesnt have the end flares like the VX Clubsport which is similar to the picture. The VT Clubsport and VX SS spoilers have a smooth rounded edge. The picture of the spoiler he saw doesnt.


    This is a VX S off caresales:




    it doesnt have the same looping style the picture does but the ends are the same.

    Actually theyve been different since they first came out. The VS had the "bobtail" lip on the "S" whereas the SS had that horrible looking thing. Youd just assume it would be the same as usually the "S" has the "SS" kit, odd theyd make 2 spoilers.

    That ugly thing in the OP doesn't follow the boot contour like a factory job would. If you could look directly downwards on the boot, you find that the factory spoilers keep the same profile as the bootlid. That thing doesn't appear to do that. Could be from something altogether different, not a Commodore.

    I think you'll find it at a local holden dealer under the name "fully sik spoiler bro"

    alternately search for 'crap looking spoiler' on google.

    Yeah that would be an aftermarket job. Althought theres not enough pics of it to see. My guess would be if this guy has gone to the trouble of finding an aftermarket spoiler, why doesnt it have the entire kit?

    ALso its not a VT Manta or a VT OR VX Xu6 as they had the same kits and wings as clubsports, on the topic of VT Manta's... what a disgusting looking car.

    The VS Manta looked ok... its was pretty much an SS that you have to pay more for because it has a HSV badge.
