Hello ladles and jelly-spoons.
Now, I've always loved the look of the Torana SLR-5000, or any car with an aggressive stance, wheel flares and spoilers front and rear, and I know exactly where I can get sweet looking wheel flares and a chin spoiler for my 200B that gives it a similar vibe. My only problem is a spoiler. Anyone know of a spoiler that will fit on a 200B without any pissing about? Preferably a torana style bobtail spoiler, but really any spoiler is fine (no rice-burner sh*t though, I hate those stupid kit spoilers that sit like 5 inches off your boot and look look like they are held by scaffolding.)

Thoughts people?

I'm fitting a XU-1 wing to my 610.
just need a little bit of glass on the ends to suit the boot contour, but perfect size!

The SX had a spolier option - my mate's first car in 1985 was a white 200B SX very similar to yours without the flares. The original was more like the Torana hatchback spolier - it didn't cover the vertical part of the bootlid - this meant it left the 'DATSUN SX' sticker exposed across the rear lip.

I have since dropped the rear spoiler and also the stock mirrors for S1 bluebird square snub items, along with clear indicators front and rear with amber globes, fog lights behind grill with blue led dash swith and auxiallary bluebird dimmer switch for that mad max look. Rolled the gaurds, added chrome wheel arch trims. On the look out for some mk1s and iode headlamps. theres a 78 200b on ebay atm with some weird striping down the side and BLUE high beam lamps? Curious indeed.

Considered the newgel flares, do they have a mould for the SX spoiler also pictured? I never asked.
