New rear spoiler!

I got a rear spoiler out of the junk yard that's in near mint condition and mounted it 2 inches back this weekend. All I can say is ! I love the way it makes the car look! Much more aggressive. I also had my step dad(I have another broken hand ) put on a new ball joint and end link, Summit remote mount tranny filter, new exhaust clamps(it's quiet now!), and straightened out the steering me and svxfiles didn't get quite right with the new steering coupler install. I also got it all shined up and looking absolutely GORGEOUS! I'll try to get some pics tomorrow for anyone who can't wait till Reading or can't make it.

Jason,
I know what you meant by the spoiler look.

Glad your car is better and ready for the reading...is that difficult to replace a ball joint? If I make it to the reading, could you teach me how to do that? How is your engine running now?
Later,

I have two of my spoilers moved back and I like that look much better. I agree that it makes it look much more aggressive. Have fun at Reading.

I'm still figuring out which position to put my spoiler which still needs to be repainted. Any pics of what the differences look like. I was considering the more forward position but now i'm not sure...........Never mind i'm sure i'll see a few in Reading..........

Later,
The ball joint is very easy to do, But I'm probally not the right one to really show you since my hand is broke. The engine is still knocking and the rear wheel bearings need done, But other than that I'm dandy and ready for Reading.
