Thought I should share this since I'm very happy I did it.
I didn't like the spoiler mechanism on the MC Carrera GT, it doesn't go up high enough.
*Can't find a picture how it looks without mod, but those who have the model will know*
EDIT : found some pictures how it looks like

So decided to do something about it, et voila :D ;

It's quit easy, just unscrew the underside, and then cut a piece of the mechanism, you'll see what to cut when you open the spoiler few times while holding the model upside down.
And you don't have to glue the spoiler in position, just take it out and it'll stay in position :wink: And you can still lower it completly.
What do you guys think :) ?
