    Hi,
    Thanks for your answer and tips!
    When I received mine I was very surprised it came in such a small box! But as I have not intended to install it immediately I store it and, I must confess, I forget about it...
    This was about 3 years ago...
    A few weeks back I contacted Roger and ask him what he believes I should do when opening the box and he told me that if the spoiler still has no cracks to leave it alone in the sun for as much as needed and it eventually gets back to the original shape.
    We have a lot of sun and high temperatures here in Portugal but I'm waiting for the hotter months to do that.
    Hope it's still "alive" when I decide to open the box...
    Thanks again for your help!
    Best regards

    Hello,
    I have had to heat the spoiler up carefully in the worst areas that were kinked with a heat gun and slowly get it back in to shape.
    This seems to have worked reasonably well with no cracks but it is still not perfect.
    I won't be installing mine on the car for approximately 12 months so I found a much larger box to store it in the meantime.
    I'm hoping that when I install it on the car that it will pull back in to shape but I suspect I will have to use some more heat on it.
    Were you informed by Roger that it would be curled up in a small box for shipping prior to purchase?
    I must admit I was very disappointed when mine arrived. Hope this helps with getting yours back in to shape.
    Cheers, Duncan

    Hi,
    Sorry to bother you but I just saw the pic of your front spoiler inside the box!
    I also have one ordered from Roger Tyson a few years ago for my 83S, in fact it's still in the box, I guess in the sane condition of yours.
    Honestly I'm a little afraid to open the box because I don´t know if it will ever come to the original shape.
    Can you please tell me what have you done to your and did it return to the original shape with no cracks?
    Thanks in advance for your answer.
    Best regards
