Very low front spoiler
Has anyone experienced problems keeping that rubberized spoiler under the front bumper of the 2002 9-5 Aero? It is designed to hang so low that any tap on one of those cement parking stoppers or even piled snow can knock it loose. Any ideas to keep it solidly in place-is it avital part of aerodynamics?

- 2011 9-3 Aero XWD Performance by Hirsch
There are two soltions: 1. Be a very cautious driver and don't hit anything in the front. or 2. Remove the lip altogether and install the stock 9-5 trim.
It's a problem that most if not all 9-5 Aero owners have (some more than others.) One friend has replaced his lip three or four already, and then for whatever reason switched the '04/'05 style front bumper with integrated lip which can be just as bad if not worse since if you smash that up, you're buying a whole bumper cover at $500+ paint/installation.2011 Saab 9-3 Aero XWD Performance by Hirsch "Wolffe"
