I am looking to buy a roof mounted spoiler for my classic mini. One that is bolted to the roof and not just above the rear window. Any ideas as to where I can get one from.

Many thanks for your help

Thanks for the reply but they only do the roofline spoilers.
I bought one with a Mtech bodykit from them but had problems with it being a good line-up match and my bodyshop fitter refused to fit it because it would be weakened with such a heavy trim. I have seen a couple of spoilers on cars but no idea where they came from.

Are there any spoilers for the mini that offer any aerodynamic advantage or are they all just for show?

Its his car and he can do what ever he likes with it.

The spoiler is for show only. You dont need to have your foot to the floor to have a good time. If I wanted a fast car then it wouldn't be a mini as i'd want a lot more protection if things went t**s up than a classic mini can offer.

Your personal point of view as to how my mini should or shouldn't look isn't required, that wasn't in my question, I just need to know where this type of bodykit can be purchased.

Thank you.

I don't know who makes this, but if it's what you're looking for, this picture might make it clearer to someone who may be able to point you in the right direction.
