""NEW SPOILER DESIGN"".....Palo Uber Mini.com

HI!! Deiter here to explain what we have done.....As before, we are always looking to improve....This Time I used my new software to see how I could improve our Uber Carbon Fiber Adjustable Spoiler....And please forgive the english if improper....

We have already sent out two newly designed rear spoilers to two NAM members who purchased them. One is for the R-53 application and one is for the R-56 application. I have been informed there is one product review on nam.

I found that the curvature of the wing was excellent as before, but we moved the wing assembly back 1/4 of an inch, while moving the side wings forward 1/8th of an inch for both the R-53 and the R-56 models. What this did was increase the downforce while at lower speeds. The side wing adjustment resulted in a greater stabilization at higher speeds.

One definite downside to both model mini's is both have "significant" drift, hop and float right from the dealer. As I think we all know, the rear wing ( OEM ) is useless and provides only esthetics. That is why we developed the wing extension and the Uber adjustable spoiler. To prevent drift and keep your rear-end on the ground. The more horsepower you add the more you need contact from your rearend of your mini. You wont believe the difference of tracking and driving once the adjustable rear spoiler is installed.

We wanted to show, you can have a SMALL SPOILER that is incredibally effective ( 7x36 ) inches. Under 5 pounds total, and can be installed in 15 minutes, as it arrives fully assembled, with all stainless steel fitings. No "plastic or glue here, and our's does NOT whistle"........

There are three preset settings to choose from;
1. Daily driving position, which is truely exceptional for aggressive street manuveres along with rain encounters. This is the position they are sent out in.
2. AGGRESIVE #2 position; which is pretty much a saturday night setting for street redline encounters. Truely exceptional.
3. TRACK #3 position; We tested this position on the mountain roads of Germany and Italy. It really keeps it down, and is ideal for track performance.

Both models, 53&56, Spoiler Blade is identical, ie., made in OUR shops by OUR technicians from OUR MOLDS. Made from German Aircraft Grade Carbon Fiber with our black transparent gel coat. Our wings are hollow. Each Spoilers side wings are hydrocut from aircraft grade aluminum. We cut with water to get the resulting edge. Each side wing is then poweder-coated in oil black. Recessed black stainless screws provide fitment to the Spoiler. The two molded feet on the R-53 model are resin with exact fit to your roof. Each leg has a stainless bolt which fits perfectly through the two holes left behind after removing your OEM wing.(5 minute install).
The R-56 comes to you with the entire replacement boot top valance with the molding already installed. As before, Stainless steel bolts hold this Uber Spoiler to the roof...NO GLUE HERE.

SEE PHOTOS; www.paloubermini.com go to online store catalogue and the Home page.(great shot of the R-56 on home page showing valance)

TO ORDER: go to www.paloubermini.com and go to the online store catalogue, R-53 (2002-2006) is NAM KIT # 20 (save $152.00)

We have two of each models set aside for our NAM members, and thank you.
