This is roughly the height I would prefer to have my spoiler
(after considering wind tunnel testing)
The orange object you see is not my spoiler, it is
merely the plug for the mould of this spoiler which utilizes a NACA 43(2)-200
airfoil shape which has been choosen for its downforce properties
This is the actual glass fibre I used to layup my spoiler
Above you can see the picture of my spoiler layup which has been vacum bagged and preped to go into the autoclave to be cured.
This pic is to give an idea of the size of my spoiler
