Possibly? But the sag is caused by the louvre panel being pushed tight into the aperture on the rear clam. If it's installed with a little tension, rather than compression, it shouldn't warp.Quote:

I think all other types are "via" the rear clam
I have adjusted the door since then so the seam lines up!

It's something that got passed down from the Allora, Corse' are similar.Quote:

The air pushing down on the louvre from the rear spoiler is what causes the sag in the case of the LB which is why they have a support bracket between the canopy and the lower louvre.
Without this bracket when travelling at speed the louvre can be pushed down & touch the rear canopy.

Something else you can add on when listing the spec of your car: "3.2 GTA...ITBs....4-pots all round...Nitrons....anti-sag...." ...although some may think you've started listing family members when you get onto that last one.
Given the average age of Stratos replica builders "anti sag" maybe a relevant addition to the options list.....Quote:
