Yea but with a spoiler you'll get lost in the sea of others, without you'll stand out and get noticed more

I bought the trumpet off eBay and then modified it to fit with the lights. Was a bit of a ball ache but end result is good I reckon.

Sorry chap, only just seen your posts.
I replaced the outer lamps with crystal ones from eBay. The take normal H4 bulbs so you have hi and low beam.
Your normal bulb plug just fits them like normal, no wiring needed.

think of the car as a whole, as a wing. if you look at it from the side, you will notice it roughly looks like an aerofoil. (flat-ish on the bottom and curved on the top)
the theory of lift states that if you increase air speed over the top relative to the bottom then you will produce lift, which is exactly what most road cars do
a spoiler spoils airflow (hence the name) going over the top, so reduces lift

The bloody great scoop on an imprezas bonnet is what causes drag, reverse scoop or vent like mine is the way forward.
