Aftermarket parts
Aftermarket parts
Does anybody know where I can get an aftermarket rear spoiler that bolts up directly to the stock spoiler holes, I'm not concerned about the brake light, for some reason the wiring for my brake light is gone, and I don't have the rear window mounted light, either. I have so much trouble with these aftermarket parts, they're almost all claiming to have a "universal" fit. Such as certain fender flares, they claim universal fit, but I don't see a Beretta and an Escalade having even close to the same size wheel wells. Also, where can I buy a strut bar? I was told that the Z51 is becoming increasingly rare, and that there is actually an aftermarket bar available that's better. True?
Re: Aftermarket parts
Aftermarket rear spoiler? None that I'm aware of, but some have used spoilers off of other cars.
Z51 and a strut bar are completely different things, just so you understand. May members on here have strut bars for sale, so that shouldn't be an issue, but the Z51 suspension (and its parts) can be hard to find, as they came on earlier berettas. I believe those were the ones equipped with FE3 Suspension. The later beretta's (GTZ/Z26) had FE7. Now I could have those backwards, but I think that is right. Personally I have not heard or seen that they make THAT much difference, but that could just be me. The tower strut bars for both front and rear towers can still be found quite easily.

Re: Aftermarket parts
Not that long ago I found a site that had spoilers that were stock without the brake light. Lost my hard drive and the link is gone, but they are out there.
keep'em flying!

Re: Aftermarket parts
here are a couple of links from a quick google search. i dont endorse any of these places since i have never ordered anything and none of them say they are beretta specific. your best bet is to try junk yards or call some of these places and ask them about what they sell. gives you a good idea what they're customer service is like too.

Re: Aftermarket parts
I wanna find an older grand prix and mold the flares from it on to a beretta. I think that would look cool. I'd never myself put aftermarket fenders on a beretta.

Re: Aftermarket parts
Okay, I'm not looking for fender flares, I was just using them as an example.. of the problems with universal fit appearance parts.. Hell no, I don't want any flares. I was just looking to find some direct bolt up spoilers that appear aftermarket.. I might screw around and see what works at the scrapyard.. there's a Cavalier RS with a sexy wing on it that matches the color of my car, but I haven't checked to see if they mount up directly.

Re: Aftermarket parts
Not true. In handful of states (AZ included) It is only required to have atleast one working rear brake light. I have a family of law enforcement and i get fed this crap all the time. The high mount light is not required as long as the other two are in perfect working orderChad91GTZ wrote:Just so you know its illegal in 50 states to drive without a CHMSL.
