FAQs
What Arai helmet models is this spoiler kit compatible with?
The kit is compatible with Arai GP-6, GP-6S, GP-6RC, and SK-6 helmet models.
Does the kit come with instructions for painting?
Detailed painting instructions are not included, but it is recommended to use standard procedures for painting helmet accessories. Ensure the surface is clean and use appropriate paints for plastic. Allow ample curing time before attachment.
Can I remove and re-attach the spoilers if I make a mistake?
It is not recommended to remove and re-attach the spoilers, as the adhesive is designed for single application. Removal and re-attachment will likely damage the adhesive and reduce its effectiveness.
Will this spoiler kit fit my Arai RX-7V helmet?
No, this specific PED Spoiler Kit is designed only for the GP-6, GP-6S, GP-6RC, and SK-6 models. It will not fit other Arai helmet series.
How do I clean the spoilers once they are attached?
Clean the spoilers gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the surface or the adhesive.
Is professional installation required?
Installation is designed to be straightforward with the adhesive strips. However, if you choose to paint the spoilers, professional painting might yield better results and ensure the longest-lasting finish.
What is the primary benefit of installing these spoilers?
The primary benefit is improved helmet aerodynamics, leading to increased stability and reduced drag at high speeds, which can enhance driver focus and comfort.
Troubleshooting
Spoiler not adhering properly
Ensure the helmet surface was thoroughly cleaned and dried before application. Re-apply firm pressure. If issues persist, the adhesive may be compromised; consider using a high-quality automotive double-sided tape as a replacement after cleaning the original adhesive residue.
Helmet feels unstable despite spoiler installation
Verify that the correct Arai helmet models are being used and that the spoilers are installed in the designated positions. Ensure the spoilers are securely attached. Aerodynamic performance is also dependent on vehicle speed and external conditions.
Paint is peeling off the spoiler
Ensure proper surface preparation and use of compatible primer and paint for plastics. Follow the paint manufacturer's instructions for curing times. If the spoiler was painted after attachment, the adhesive may have been affected.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: This Arai PED Spoiler Kit is specifically designed for the following Arai helmet models: GP-6, GP-6S, GP-6RC, and SK-6.
Setup:
- Clean Helmet Surface: Ensure the areas on the helmet where the spoilers will be attached are clean, dry, and free of grease or residue. Use a mild cleaner and allow it to dry completely.
- Painting (Optional): If you plan to paint the spoilers, do so before attaching them. Follow standard helmet painting procedures. Allow paint to cure fully. *Note*: Ensure paint does not get on the adhesive strips.
- Attachment: Carefully peel off the protective backing from the adhesive strip on the chin spoiler. Align it correctly with the helmet's chin bar and press firmly for at least 30 seconds. Repeat for the rear spoiler on the designated helmet area.
Care:
- Clean spoilers with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish or the adhesive.
- Periodically check the adhesion, especially after prolonged use or exposure to extreme conditions. Re-apply pressure if needed, but avoid removing and re-attaching spoilers, as this will likely compromise the adhesive.
