Default Classic going Spoiler'less

Guys been thinking of doing it to my classic, so if any classics are out there without a rear spoiler it would be great to see them.

cheers

This is just a photoshop showing a spoiler-less look on my GC8



looks pretty 'clean', but I think if I was to carry out the spoiler-less look on mine, the car would look rather bare as it has no bonnet scoops.

Thank you. Since that pic was taken I had ditched the flaps (which you will probably know about), so now I bet the rear would look even better...hmm time for a photoshop me thinks

PIMP!!!!! really liking that. its true though what someone said on an earlier thread, needs to be low and on different wheels. Also i reckon an angled afterburner box or similar would just finish the look off niceley.
Now, where did i put my bank card

just the way an ra should be. so i took mine off. the graphics aren't finished yet. i know the vent and edge of the spoiler needs to go black and the black needs to carry on down the bumper. lots more to come.

wonder if you can get teh M3 in Carbon might be a nice touch on a silver car

just asking about colour as in my opinion colour can make somethign look tops or gash, no offence but in the red, black and blue i think it looks nice but i am not soo keen in white (no offence chaps) so just wanted to see it in silver

and thanks for the comment about the car, it has been a long process since i picked it up , one thing after another going wrong but i think i am getting there now and uits just a few more choice body mods and few engine tweaks and it will be there

mroe pics welcome
