Hi Guys,

thinking of purchasing one of the TSL standard MY02 WRX spoiler extension kits. The picture they have on the site isn't very expressive - what is your experience of these things (anyone got any piccies?). For those of you who haven't seen them, they slot into the standard holes and raise the level of the rear spoiler. I think I'm going to like it because it gives the car the look of a Skyline from behind (or it that my imagination ...)

What's the general opinion of them? Frank opinions appreciated

thanks
DaveR

Thumbs up

Look great There were some good shots in the Members Gallery a while back. A good, cheap alternative to buying a new spoiler

I do quite like 'em... I think we'd all like a BIG wing... but these leave a little change from £500... enough for a very big night out anyway

Tiggs - I think it's more like 2 1/2 inches (The spoiler, the spoiler ! )

But s'pose it comes down to cost. If you haven't got £500 to spend on a spoiler and dare to be different. Then go for it !

I tend to agree with Tiggs.
The original spoiler looks just like a picnic bench. With the extensions, it just now means there's room to get your knees under it.
If you can afford to run a Scoob, surely you can afford to go the whole hog on one of the most aesthetically important mods.

Dont mind you useing piccys at all.
Look in gallery at "look at my bum" loads of pictures there!
I would buy another set if you could buy them at 3/4 length.
Fitting is quite easy too,but when you take the fixings off the old fin you would expect it to come off but it doesnt
It is held into place with two door panel clips and you have to be a bit aggresive to get it off,you also have to lengthen the brake light cable.TSL are kind enough to supply you with st.steel fittings so dont drop them into the inner skin of the boot lid coz a magnet wont get them out[img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]
