Default my new addition to the scoob

sorry for the quality of the pic but it's one off my phone. Finaly looks like a real scooby thanks to the small new spoiler I'll get some propper pics up soon.

nope it's fitted. it's not a genuine scooby one. what makes you think it's ill fitted? it's lined up with the edge of the boot lid. and as i said poor quality photo that was taken on my phone.

but everyone is allowed their own opinion. i won't hold it against them too much

It looks as if the bottm part should fit flush onto the boot lid which in the photo it looks to be say 10mm higher than it should be.

Maybe just the photo but the spoiler itself looks good, its simillar to new age style 22b spoiler.

Just my opinion mate, no offense intended.

none taken. i think it's the bonding that i put it on with as well as the bolts. It has been smoothed off though. And the poor lighting (only a strip light in the garage).

That's basically the spoiler that i have but the brake light is at the top instead of the bottom. Plus i only paid £104 delivered for mine instead of £500

Certainly makes a difference having a gert big spoiler, cant see out of the back too easy either small price to pay though

cheers for the comments.

i think you're right norther scoob. the ad said that it was for scoob '93 to '03. if yo ulook at the link coulster posted it looks the same as that apart from the stop light is at the top rather than the bottom.

paul 37, it certainly does cut out some rear view. i find myself sticking to the speed limit even more than i already did as it seems to cover the horizion so unless something is right behind you you can't tell if it's plod or not. Guess i'll have to start using my wing mirrors a bit more

no these spoilers were made for classics and are deliberately made as they are. A friend of mine sells these day in day out and personally i dont like them. as someone said above, they need to be sitting flush, but im sure if he shows u other angles of the car, it is fit on flush. Its just that extra bit that makes it look as though it isnt.

Its something different like a version 5/6 merged with a P1/22b spiler and a little extra at the bottom.

If you like it mate, thats all that matters at the endo f the day

kilo 4que - yeah i'm happy with it. for what it cost me i def can't grumble. i'll get some daylight pics taken to show what you are explaining about the different angles and it being flush.

legacy sti - yup sti lights or i might be a little different and tint the indicator very slightly so they appear red when not being used. i'll be leaving the reversing light as it is if i do. i don't want it to look pink when reversing

mate looks like a newage one to me! i have one myself on my wrx (newage)and believe me it should be sitting lower down, the very btm is to be over the back of the tailgate. and the edges should be the first thing above the bootlid. but looks a good quality copy so thats a bonus! willsy

for heavens sake, its not the same one you guys are thinking of. It looks similar but is deliberately made like this. Ask me why i dont know but it is defo made as it is. I know as my mate sells these all day long and his brother has put one on his green sport. I think hes started selling them on ebay now also and has his brothers car to demonstrate. Have a look
