Ray Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 I really enjoy looking at the very nicely restored R models, but I have to ask. Where can we get those spoilers below the front bumper? They really set off the front of the truck. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/7590-return-of-the-mack-r-model/#findComment-27693 Share on other sites More sharing options...
EM6285 Posted December 20, 2008 Author Share Posted December 20, 2008 I really enjoy looking at the very nicely restored R models, but I have to ask. Where can we get those spoilers below the front bumper? They really set off the front of the truck.The FIBERGLASS Spiolers below the front bumpers are custom pieces that I think are fabricated locally (here in Puerto Rico)They are painted in the same color as the truck to really set off the FRONT of a MACK R series truck.You can SPEC them with any type of lights or MACK LOGOS or lettering.I will try my best to find you some information on those SPOILERS.THANKS.
