    Talking New Spoiler

    Firstly massive thank's to t5steve for making this for me he's done a top job and for the price he charged he's not doing it for the money as after time and effort and materials i doubt very much if there is any profit lol, top bloke to deal with and workmanship is second to none, nice to have a subtle touch of something different on the car

    Secondly thank's to the VPC delivery service Wayne and Frankie for keeping it safe and sound till it got to me cheers lads

    Some pics which probably dont do it justice.

    glad you like it ....................as i stated in my earlier posts i don't make these for profit i only just manage to cover costs..................it is just my way of returning something to the forum members in return for all the free advice i've had in the past...........and possibly need in the future.........
    top man james was a pleasure to build this for you ............if anybody else wants one just ask.............

    Looks spot on as I expected it would, when you get a chance James try and get a couple of shots of the rear of the car dead on and then a side profile of the whole car

    I think you need to be carefull with the over all size Frankie as it could be overkill with the rest of the cars standard features

    It's the side profile of the car which will show the added flick that Steve has made

    It's strange they never experimented with the spoilers on the estate R's only the saloons seemed to benefit from that treatment...?
