Duck Bill! Spec Corvette Spoiler Install (GStream) - I Love it!

Today on Bernie Rubbers Garage we are installing a Spec Corvette duck bill spoiler made by GStream. This is a composite spoiler that mounts directly to the rear bumper. We also cover some aerodynamic basics!

New to channel. I vote for total rebuild of whatever it is you decide to share. Thank you I am really enjoying your videos. Have a 99 FRC and love the spoiler. Did something similar to license plate opening to bring in more air. Thank you again. Hands!!

[@Beezy_Builds]

Keep doing what your doing fam! You're on to something

[@6gearImpala]

If you made a highlights video of the recent work I'd watch it. Keep up the good work.

[@Z06Sandgren]

What this guy said 😁

[@petebutler5139]

Good video! I’ve been looking for a good duckbill and this one is brilliant!

[@brianwicker8291]

Love your car. Sits so well. Big thumbs up

[@jeffb243]

Looks great! I’d like to have the same spoiler on my C5

[@bernierubbersgarage6066]

Thanks! I'm still waiting to take it to the track to see how it feels, but I love the way it looks!

[@icurt06]

i'd like to see the two and half weeks of work that you did on your Z06

[@89imp03]

Not bad 👍👍

[@Onlyforuni]

Me too, one video summarising it all??

[@tedmcconaughey8438]

Excellent job very well done....how about a video tour of your car

[@bernierubbersgarage6066]

Good idea, I'll get to it shortly!

[@PNW_Car_Mods]

Well done Bernie. Thanks for the showing the install and all the view points of it after installation. I've been eyeballing this spoiler for a while now. I just need to get over the cheapskate hurdle.

[@bernierubbersgarage6066]

Ha, sometimes that's the hardest hurdle! Unfortunately I haven't been able to get out on track yet (I have a engine knocking sound 😭) but I can't wait to see how this spoiler does un the high speed corners!

[@PNW_Car_Mods]

@@bernierubbersgarage6066 UH oh. Have you been running an extra quart of oil for track events? I have a buddy right now with his engine out of his C5 after spinning a rod bearing at a track day. He admittedly never got the memo about adding extra oil to the engine for high g corners.

[@bernierubbersgarage6066]

Yeah, added the extra quart, and I have oil pan baffles. I haven't dug into the engine yet, but planning a full rebuild. I've been street driving it to break in the new clutch and differential and happened to hear the knock right after I was done with the break in miles. It might be something else, maybe an easy fix, but we will see!

[@robertkringel8150]

I can’t get passed the drilling holes in my bumper hurdle.

[@PNW_Car_Mods]

@@robertkringel8150 I ended up buying this spoiler and installed it. Even made a much crappier video of it than Bernies lol. My thoughts on drilling the holes were there's a million black C5s out there. If end up hating it someday I'll just trade or buy another bumper cover. Not a big deal.

[@ruleslawyer]

I'll be your friend. ;)

[@z06king]

any on track eval yet, Bernie?

[@bernierubbersgarage6066]

Not yet, next track day is August 20th!

[@z06king]

How’s the handling balance with the spoiler and hood vents? I mean, no splitter needed? That’s what I’m reading by the SC guys on FB

[@bernierubbersgarage6066]

I haven't had a chance to track it yet with the spoiler, but from what I read it was designed to be run without a front splitter.

[@pauljeitler7678]

mine has the tried and true TrackSpec Motorsports T2 hood vents and the spec Corvette spoiler and I'd say it handles very neutral. G-Stream say "may require adjustable sway bar to tune out understeer" but I haven't felt the need to do one yet.

[@supersoldier05]

Where are your center caps for the wheels?

[@bernierubbersgarage6066]

I leave them off for the track. I don't want them coming off while lapping.

[@justkeepontrucking]

I'd like to submit my official request for a pilot bearing video. I was told I would receive one if I asked? Much obliged

[@bernierubbersgarage6066]

I'm not sure that video exists 😅
