I will ask Adam what to do with it.
When AWC moved from Taren Point the bar was left there and fibre styling had no idea what it was and didn't seem interested.

A friend of mine who also has a wagon ba/au wants to buy the original Ford rear spoiler.
Anyone knows where to find one? New, or second hand does not matter. BUT, it must be the original Ford spoiler (not the acrylic wind deflector). If you know, either PM me or post here on this thread the details, please. |

This pic is the original pic that Ford had on their site: This is the spoiler we want. BUT, now they have a pic of the acrylic wind deflector only. The difference between this one and the one sold by AWC is that the original one has a more flat edge as the AWC one has a slanting edge. The acrylic wind deflector Ford is selling now is (i.e. the silver coloured pic from SSV I posted) not what we are looking for. The problem is when we gave the spare part number mentioned above to the local Ford dealer to order, what arrived in a box marked with that number which said: Rear Spoiler, was a different version of the acrylic wind deflector.

I hope we both can find one, new or used does not matter. Hopefully someone on this forum may know where I can find one. |

Well, well, well......
With help from some friends and through a direct communication with Ford I found out that for some unknown reason to mankind, they changed the part number recently from : ERN42210AKT to, BAF42210ACJV BUT, that is not the only thing they did. The price to start with during 2003 was $110.00(incl GST). BUT, the exuberant price they are asking now for the exact same product is: Are you sitting down??? Hold on to your pants......Here we go..... A whooping $440.00(incl. GST). Looks like an insane JOKE.: Obviously marketing and economy is not Ford staffs forte. They couldn't sell these spoilers when they were asking $110.00, so they dropped them from their list of genuine accessories. Then they were left with some in their stock. Instead of keeping the same price or having them on sale to get rid of them and use the space for some faster moving items. They are asking 4 times more hoping they can gain some of the loses and stock keeping cost this way..... Well, keep on dreaming..... We also found that you can buy a Rear Top Spoiler for a VW GTI, for $235.00 plus shipping. Which looks exactly like the one sold by Ford but this one is made out of Carbon Fibre. Luckily the hatch on the VW has the same width as Ford Wagon’s. |

Sounds like for $440 it comes with tailgate attached as well.

Here is a pic of the Carbon Fibre Rear Spoiler for VW GTI:
We also found this one from Opel Zafira, with an approx. landed cost of $225.00. Same company makes this rear bar and they are presently looking at the possibility of making them for some Australian vehicles. Maybe they could be convinced to start with rear bars for.....I don't know.....say, Ford Falcon Wagon…… Just few examples of what is available out there and could be done.

Hey guys and girls,
Same question all these years later - chasing AU/BA/BF Wagon rear spoiler. I found a place called Car Mate in Fairfield, NSW, that does them, but I have it on very good authority to steer well clear of their products. I've had no luck with AWC and SSV, although SSV did advise me that there was no demand, so they ditched them. They no longer have the mould either unfortunately.
