Each to their own and all that, I like it and thats all that matters, Ah well page 2 is for the haters.....

Out of interest what would you guys have fitted, A large sti spoiler as that totally defeats the object with it being a spec-c and they weigh 8KG, This one weighs half of the low level WRX spoiler does but it is also adjustable and fucntions properly, It is not just for the aesthetics it needs rear downforce due to being light at the back

You can get originals from Litchfields iirc, circa £1k+, or the kakumei copies that we have are about £300

Ha agree each to there own be ****e if everyone's car looked the same. In response to your question I would go without unless this is a race car? The amount of downforce you would get off this spoiler wouldn't make any difference on a road car? Unless this car has massive power etc can't see it making much of a difference apart from making it look a bit crap. Soz just my opinion

Thats fine all opinion are welcome even if they are wrong

But in all seriousness it`s been on the track a couple of times and its the first thing i noticed, its a little bit unstable at higher speeds as there is virtually no weight at the rear so needs something to push it down a bit, Regarding the power is about 270bhp/285lbft per tonne, So equivalent to a 400bhp/420lbft powered UK car but with better response, Regardless it works for me
