I recently installed Mark IV's on my 05 FLSTFSE. The "crossbar" which supports the Hwy pegs using a fat chrome-cross-bar runs right through the area of the spoiler. I had already changed out the stock buckshot floorboards for HD Flame floorboards. Had to change the floorboard support as well.

With that already behind me, the install only left the question: What to sacrifice the spoiler or the chrome cross support. According to tech support at Kuryakyn there is no solution: give up the spoiler. Now, even though the spoiler is chrome plastic, it still looked so great I wasn't willing to give it up. So, I didn't.

I cut away (fabricated, modified: whatever. If my brother Aussie can do stuff, so can I !!) and made the spoiler clip right on to the chrome-cross-bar. Took a minimum amount of time and I am thinkin' about having a real chrome spoiler made from this cut away model.

The Pictures are coming, give me a few to download.....

Remember, this is a prototype of the spoiler mod. It is close to what I will want for final product.

Left Side Mod note: the gap that the spoiler has between chrome bar and spoiler is to show the cut out size. It does not have that much of a gap when fully attached.

Looking real good kona, why do you want to go to sheet metal & chrome? that would be a lot of work & expence for not much gain. The plastic chrome still looks OK.

Yes, I think I would leave it as is.  Looks great.  What you could do is remove the spoiler and make a template for both sides of the actual cutout size.  Photograph and post that.  Then a guy could print it out and lay it over the chrome spoiler and cut it out.

My friends are the best. I swear...Aussie and Taildragger, thanks. I get much more than HD emotional support when I started interacting with you two guys. So, thanks.

I believe the only reason to go to a "final chrome piece" is the fatigue factor on the plastic. I think the biggest percentage of grime, inpact of rocks and road junk hit right there on the spoiler. It's a magnet for liquid garbage and bugs as well. I'm hoping a sheetmetal / chrome spoiler made from a template might be of interest to some of us too. Ya never know.

Thanks for lookin' at my latest guys,

Mike K.

Thanks EAGLE1. Yes, but I didn't change out the floorboard supports for the crossbar, I did it for the Flame floorboards which don't line up with the buckshot. I took advantage of this by getting

Kona, that looks great... what did you cut that plastic with? and is there any peeling or did it melt at all from heat?  Thanks for an outstanding idea thats the end of a very long lived dilema..
