Cost of rear wing on Astra SRi

[The Sentinel]

When I picked up my SRi from the panel beaters on Friday, he said I might be interested to know what the (factory) rear wing was worth to replace......

$1000.

I $hit you not! I saw the paperwork for all the parts with my own two eyes!!!!
That's a crapload of money for a chunk of carbon fibre (I assume that is what it is made of).

Its Plastic.
or Polyurethene.
If it was Carbon fibre, Try $3000.

The other guy's insurance paid for it, so I don't really give a toss how much it cost, but why so much???

[anicorsa]

Because it adds so much power. ;)

The downforce easily justifies its price. ;)



Its late, im tired..... :roll: :screwy:

if its cheap then every one would go for the alternative ... sri spoiler

yeah she does, dont you know they make it go faster...

you should get your self some :lol: :lol: :lol:

[Degen-Astra]

Would blue, white, red or orange flames make it faster? Which is hotter? :lol: :wink:

I think this is a highly debateable topic ( :lol: ) but in my opinion it depends on the colour of your car,
so a sliver car goes faster with blue flames
a white car goes faster with red flames
and a black car well it doesnt go fast so no point putting flames on it..... :roll:

Oh I forgot

Burgundy is the fastest Astra out at the moment so there is no need to put flames on it as they would just peel straight off... :D :D :D

Ya right, Its sad. The SS and HSV Spoilers cost about $5 to make, and About $2 worth of Plastic and the rest is Blow Moulding Machine Running Cost per Part. :x

I still have a chunk of the old one I picked up from the accident to keep as a souvenir. :D
