They are just off J11 of the M1, will you be doing a "collection" in that area soon

Thinking about this one for the Classic

Failing that at the next meet Glenn give me your car keys and leave me alone for around 20 mins and when you come back you will be sporting a spoilerless look.
Prodrive did one of these....

If that is the type I don't really like that spoiler, is it the UK300 spoiler?

To be honest Ian I am leaning towards the Kakumei S204 spoiler at the moment, but those Seibon spoilers are good quality.

I really haven't made my mind up yet, would prefer a genuine S204 spoiler but they are around £1500.

They look good quality but I would prefer a genuine S204 spoiler if possible but not at £1500 , I will probably end up ordering the Kakumei spoiler in the end.

Oops sorry Dean, I do like the UK300 spoiler perhaps I should have chosen my words better , I just like the S204 spoiler more.

Are you going to the mini meet tomorrow night?

Thanks for looking that up.

Well that is a suprise as it is cheaper than I had thought - it is £774 plus £114 for carriage, not £1500 I had thought but by the time I have to pay the extorniate customs clearing charges and VAT then it will certainly be about £1070.

As much as I would love a genuine STi spoiler I think I will be going down the replica route.

I have just found the carbon fibre spoiler that I had on my S202 and that is £1042 plus shipping/custom charges and VAT , good quality genuine spoilers are getting really expensive with the Pound being so weak against the Yen.

I ordered some replacement S202 wing stickers from japanparts.com a couple of months ago, they were £26 each inc shipping - I know that prices are high in Japan but by the time you take into account the poor exchange rate the prices are ridiculous.

What I might do is see if I can get hold of the Subaru part number and speak to Keith Price Subaru as I was there speaking to their parts supervisor and he was telling me that a JDM STi Blobeye front bumper is cheaper than the UK equivalent by quite an amount. They take a little longer to arrive but they are around £80 cheaper.

Simon, I want a spoiler but not an STi high spoiler but I think the S204 spoiler looks , I think the S204 is subtle and would suit the car.

I do like your spoiler but its the S204 spoiler (or replica of) for me.

I am goint to see APS next week Lee about changing the colour to gun metal or similar, I am going to get hold of another bootlid so that I can still go spoilerless or go with a spoiler.

Right then decided on the S204 spoiler but do I order the fibre glass or the carbon fibre version?

Carbon Fibre Version

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SUBAR...Q5fAccessories

Fibre Glass Version

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SUBAR...Q5fAccessories

My reasoning for the carbon fibre version is that the wheels will be doing a darker colour shortly so the CF spoiler would look good plus I am looking at getting the mirrors and a few other bits carbon fibre wrapped as well.

hmm until i read the whole post , i would have gone with the fibre glass one painted the same colour .
but thats more or less what we talked about with the other one so maybe it will look ok .
on its own TY in CF it looks like an after thought

I agree, really fancying a WRC rear spoiler with carbon centre and fins with blue sides, looks awsome in the flash....

the carbon against the blue looks stunning

Sorry in advance for the thread hijack. Does anyone know where I can get the mudflaps that go infront of the rear wheel?
