Default STI4/UK spoiler or STI6 spoiler - which to choose?

Can't decide if I want to fit an STI spoiler to my UK turbo. It currently looks like this :- (not my car but best looking shot of a back end I could find)



Or an STI 6 spoiler like this one



What do you guys think? I'm tempted but not sure if the big wing era is coming to an end.

I'd go for an Sti 5, or if that's a bit too big and you like the light on the top of the spoiler, a WRC replica. Still not sure about the upturned lip on the STi 6 version. I currently have an Sti 4 (MY99) and I'd really like to replace it! I just think it lacks the presence and form of the larger ones. It's certainly not unattractive though.

Large spoilers are a bit vulgar, but that's the point isn't it? :-)

Best.

if your doing it.. go Big STi5/6 spoilers.. sti4/MY98/99 are too std on a car if you as me

failing that you go low spoiler.. i alwys liked my low spoiler better than the MY98/99 Mid Spoilers.

I'm a V4 man myself, I prefer the relative subtlety.

Just prefer the subtle looks these days Mick, must be getting old. Rather have less show and more go nowadays whereas i couldbn't afford the go to begin with.

Saw you were looking to change yours, i'd leave it and make a profit on the spoiler.

I'm also having the problem.

Make up my mind and change it the next week.

Don't want Sti5 or 6 now so narrowed it down (!) to Sti4 / 22b / Prodrive.

Edit: Where can I get a Prodrive spoiler from ?

Default Think you'll have a job...

As far as I know, any spoiler for the Prodrive ie P1 requires a chassis number. Same for the 22B unless you're going for a copy, but these spoilers are more like the v5/v6 than the v4.
