Spoiler stolen and looking for replacement

[AHV415]

Hi people, unfortunately my spoiler was stolen some time on Friday. They didn't take the side spoilers but removed the main wing. What spoilers would you recommend for a facelift mk3 and also how do I get of the previous residue such as the glue and stuff. Thanks in advance

When you say the main spoiler do you mean the whole main spoiler? Or a spoiler extension?

If thats the case there are no other options unless you want a FR spoiler on your Cupra. There is a Cupra R spoiler but that mounts onto the Cupra spoiler its not separate.

You're going to have to get another Cupra spoiler and hope you can find one in your cars color secondhand otherwise you will have to get it painted too. Wont be the cheapest.

Are you sure about that? I've found that image and I believe that Cupra R spoiler mounts directly onto rear lid (source: https://www.cupraofficial.lt/Automobiliai/cupra-special-editions/leon-cupra-carbon-edition)

I believe its the spoiler extension if I'm correct. I don't know the correct terminology so forgive me for my errors

Mk3.5

Cupra or FR? ST or hatch?

Reason i ask is, have you lost a genuine cupra spoiler or aftermarket one usually without the brake light?

A FR, it was an aftermarket one without the brake light. I'll attach a picture of what it looks like now

If its a hatchback then there's plenty on ebay for cheap, if its an ST like mine then it's near impossible for an aftermarket one.

infact i believe i could be wrong. However the cupra r spoiler is very expensive. I doubt he wants that one or the thief's will be back

I've looked on ebay but just want to make sure the fitment is good because I've seen a few stories on the Facebook about certain ebay products on the spoilers

Why would someone do this? Disgusting.

Thanks for that. I'm from Birmingham aswell so hopefully shipping isn't too long. What would you recommend for taking off the previous residue?

 

[Mo_86]

Says you can collect too, remove the glue/silicone? Try heating with hairdryer then rub with fingers.
Leftover stuff use methylated spirit.

I did message the seller but unfortunately they don't do collections anymore. I'll look for the products you just mentioned and hopefully it'll get sorted soon. Thanks

When a trader wont allow a collection from someone local, I wonder what they have to hide?
