Wow that looks really

I think an STi 6 splitter would just finish it off a treat

Cant put a splitter on it as i'm down the stables everyday, and its down a bumpy track, which is why its not lowered either. I've done as much as i dare do, given the work it gets transporting dogs/horsey stuff everywhere. I didnt do it myself, am not skilled enough, but i have a little man that can, who is brilliant at body/paintwork. He services it as well for a fraction of the price of the stealers. Todays little lot cost £350 including mintex pads all round

STi 6 front spoiler is just about flush with body and probably only lowers it a few mm
Makes a big difference in the looks of the front.

Cheers Dave. After looking at those, it has to be what i have now, or silver. Black just looks crap and white is a bit boy racer for me
