Judge Spoiler

Kids up the block just purchased a muscle car which had a spoiler from a 1970or 1971 Pontiac Judge. As he didnt want it I found a home for it on my 1994 SVX-L. I think it looks awsome. Not to offend anyone I even like it much better than a stock spoiler. I just thought I 'd share the pics with you.

not bad, it follows the lines pretty well, and the paint matches. Did you have it painted?

I think it would be perfect if it wasn't wider than the trunklid. I like the lines - it does flow very well.

Nice spoiler, looks great from the side.

From the back... not so much.

I'm not a fan of the support pillars being in the middle of the trunk.

I tried about 3 different shades of red spray paint to match the Barcelona red color to no avail. What came closest was actually a red vinyl spray paint and 2 coats of clear. Like most of the cars painted barcelona red its fading badly on alot of the body panels and I didnt want to go crazy trying to match the color. I like the idea the spoiler is wider than the truck lid but as the saying goes-Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. The car was purchased new with 26 miles and 119,000 miles later all the typical things that can go wrong with an SVX did. Would I do it all again?- in a Heartbeat.

It may look better in person, but from the pictures I dont like it at all.

That spoiler is worth a lot more to a GTO owner...

But it looks pretty good on the SVX, I too think it would be better if it wasn't wider than the trunk lid.

I like it, it's pimp and original and my dad owned a 65 gto so the nostalgia is really all that counts, even though it is sexy.

thats not a OE Judge spoiler, thats why he
got rid of it.
Its close but not exact.
That looks more like an 88 Fiero GT wing if you ask
me..
this is the OE Judge spoiler, the sides are more of a
air foil plane type...

If he wants to sell the GTO, get me his #
Id love another one

Just for the record the spoiler is from a 1969 GTO Judge and not a Pontiac Fiero as was misreported. I was at a car show last weekend and spoke with the owners of some 1970 GTO Judge. The 70 spoiler is different shaped with holes underneath to catch the wind for added downforce, pretty neat I thought. Seems the original spoilers are so hard to come by the prices are ridiculous. Ever wonder if the SVX didnt have that Subaru nameplate that the prices for a used one would be in the mid to high teens now.

just the way it sits on the judge and meets up with the rear
quarter panels, make is look so different
Still looks fiero to me, but its probably the other.
