Looks ok I suppose better than just the standard one.

Still prefer a high level one though.

I think that's pretty bl00dy good! I guess it'd be a damn site cheaper than a higher-level spoiler. How much does it obsure rearward visibility, though?

I'd seen the mounts before, but never seen the thing assembled.

I take it this is a new line, TSL "enhancements"?

Looks great I think - better than any of the other wings I've seen. Is there a price for the risers?

Looks good but would look better if it was blended into the spoiler more ie You can't see the join (Just my opinion! )

A m8 has the CF version on his car, and it looks rather good IMHO.

He also has CF lamp covers and STI front lip spoiler which really helps...makes look all a lot more together and agro.

The spacers do not really hurt the rear vision too much, if you are going *that fast*, seeing *them* coming means you are not looking at the road enough

I would be the first to say it's not as nice as a WRC stylee rear wing, but its a bit better than the old "squashed butterfly" innit!

I'll hold judgement till tommorrow and see it in the flesh, but i think it looks like a very cost effective mod!!!

Nice one.

I think it looks cheap, sorry.
I think the standard new spoiler doesn't look like it belongs on the car anyway, my main reason for buying a wagon! I've grown to like the front of the new shape car but the saloon back still looks odd to me.

I much prefer the high level spoilers, they do improve the car.

In my opinion.

Sorry, but in IMHO it doesn't make any improvement at all, if you wanna change the wing, just go for a WRC type one.

Trouser it must be said I prefer your other spoiler option the most!

BTW the orange reflectors are in the post and I will send you some pics of the carbon ones when I actually get some good and clean ones!

TSL spoiler in green... that would be nice!
