mtb9153 Posted February 28, 2014 Report Share Posted February 28, 2014 (edited) Found this spoiler on the web designed and mounted on a Euro CMax by a auto tuner in Germany named Loder1899. Lists it for $219US. But I can't find any contact info with them to see about having one shipped to California. This is all I've wanted to try and design myself. They made it out of urethane so why should I bother any further trying to make my own. Now if I could just contact them?

fotomoto Posted March 1, 2014 Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 Do they make any performance claims or is it just a cosmetic item? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wab Posted March 1, 2014 Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 If you contact them keep us informed.Be sure to check on their color options. The spoiler looks like an interesting place to try your gas pods. I noticed they take "PayPal" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScubaDadMiami Posted March 1, 2014 Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 The spoiler looks like an interesting place to try your gas pods.I never would have thought of that location for placement. I would think that extending roofline would be the way to go. I wonder whether that placement does anything to improve fuel economy. Even if it doesn't, if that location serves to improve the dirt suction to the rear, I'd do that in a second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel Ford missed the boat with not putting something like this from the beginning it just looks cooler to me. But what do I know I'm just an aerodynamics sort of guy.

I'm assuming they mount it with high strength 3M gel adhesive? I'm not drilling any holes in my tailgate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmax-nynj Posted March 1, 2014 Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 The CMax desperately needs a rear dust spoiler. I wonder if this can prevent some dust buildup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll print the picture and get an estimate Monday. wab Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wab Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 I checked with our body shop today. $200.00 to paint the spoiler a “standard” color. $250.00 for the Platinum White, I forgot to ask about Ruby Red and Blue Candy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtb9153 Posted March 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Geez this is becoming an expensive mod to Maxus. I might not paint it to match my car, I can shoot it with Plasti-dip and change the color to suit my moods for allot less. If I buy their professional power sprayer it looks pretty good after spplying the gloss finish coat and pearlizer so it looks more like the factory color.

Braker Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 It might not look bad in black. They also make a somewhat aesthetic only rear diffuser... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtb9153 Posted March 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Yes but will not work on the hybrid cmax it was designed for the Euro CMax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtb9153 Posted March 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) or in shocking green or hot pink when I'm in a weird mood. Nice thing about plasti-dip is if your mood changes you can rip off the rubberized paint. Clean it and ready for another color of dip. Love this stuff.

ptjones Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 I think this is for looks only, there doesn't appear to be any significant air flow there. :) Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlapean Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Well,......I kind of wonder about Water running down the window and,............sitting right their at the base of the spoiler. Not saying it would be a huge amount, but a little amount of water pooling up at the base and after a couple years,.......the appearance of rust?I once owned a Honda CRX Si which had door moldings,.......the water got under the door moldings and starting totally ruining my doors as the rust started protruding through the door and from under the door molding. Course this was after some 6 to 7 years but still.Now if you live in a "Dry" climate area, not an issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtb9153 Posted March 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 Interesting thought but I'm not worried about it where it only rains from October to May if we actually get any. As for car washing I could use my air compressor to blow off excess water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not drilling any holes in my tailgate. I’ve installed a couple of spoilers over the years.This spoiler wouldn’t change the value of the C-Max like some add-on’s do. AND it is scary drilling that first hole! It would be interesting to see the supplied installation instructions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ptjones Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 I think 3M double sticky backed tape is the safe way to go, just do it right the first time. :) Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtb9153 Posted March 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 I'm with you Paul, I'm fairly certain they use 3M tape to stick it on the rear hatch. If it were mounted with hardware, I don't think there would be anyway to access from behind to tighten the hardware through holes. At least not without removing panels. ptjones 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HammerCMax Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 So... what happened with the spoiler? Is it mounted? A picture or two for others to see would be nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
