Question

Can Anyone recommend a company to speak to about changing my rear spoiler.

Im about to get an Sti5 4dr which come with the big wing on the back, which i personally dislike. Id like to get it changed for something more discreet...I wondered if anyone could recommend someone to speak to in the south-east?

If you want to keep it standard, I'm sure there are many secondhand low spoilers (pre MY99) or standard spoiler (MY99 on) for sale.

The only cost you might need to look at is respraying it, depending on the colour.

I think that selling you spoiler would cover all the costs!!! Just a thought

Cheers Andy, I dont want to sell the high level one as I expect thbat if i were to ever sell the car id return it to standard...

The problem with simply getting an MY98 version sprayed and put on the car is that the V5 high level jobbie is connected with four/five bolts accross the boot lid...so i need a solution that 'cures' the problem of the holes that would be left behind...

Wouldn't the flat spoiler cover them??

Anyway I've seen W-reg WRX with the flat pre-MY99 spoiler! I'm sure that would cover the holes, or else get some rubber grommets, as the spoielr would cover those!

No more ideas other than that! Sorry

Beside the standard Scooby spoiler..
What about something like a R33 Skyline GTR's?
There is a fitment for Scooby,it's lower than the V5 spoiler ,looks individual and still an adjustable wing though.

Cool

Hi David,

You could try Barretts Canterbury, speak to Paul Holland, they have a low level spoiler (not sure if it's a '99 mid level or a 98 low level) for sale for around 50 quid from memory.

Regards
