Hopefully Armand will see this and reply. I am trying to duplicate his spoiler for our Coach and would like to know the dimensions of the spoiler, looks to be about 6 inches deep/tall.

That spoiler was field tested by several GMCers before it was released for sale. If has been on the market for almost 10 years and works very well.

Hi Richard,
I don't know exactly what the dimensions are on my spoiler but I think it is about 6 inches tall and the width of the radiator. The spoiler that JimK sells is made really nice and lots of people use it but my experience with a non-flexible surface being so low to the ground (my ride height is about 1 inch low) is that I hit it on the road. My first try at it was with a piece of plywood for a short experimental trip and I bent it backwards exiting a parking lot. I converted to the flexible (18-wheeler mudflap) material and, even though I have hit the road several times since, I have had no damage. I would suggest the possibility of buying one of JimK's and replacing the fiberglass (I think) part with something flexible - it is a very nice unit. Just what I might do.
