Love your work but it's too big IMHO. Concept good, size bad.

Maybe a little high. But i like the overall look of it. Matches the S13 drift look IMO.

Oh and sorry for popping and banging past your gaff last night Dal

Not bad actually. Change the subject but how much paint is required to paint the inside of a 4 door classic ( bare shell ). Cheers

I think the spoiler looks well cool from behind and goes with the arches and splitter/diffuser thingy from that angle.
But need a better side on picture to pass final judgement.

Dal - what are the chances of being able to do a full size 22B spoiler, with the adjustable blade?

(sorry if it is off topic)

I like it. Narrow it in to fit the width of the boot and I'll have one for mine. I've got a growing list of bits for mine who said I wasn't modding this scoob
