Not sure about the spoiler (but it might grow on me)

Otherwise remarkably similar to mine therefore great car M8

Hi phil, know what you mean about spoiler, had a choice of the standard one or this one. The wife wanted this one because she thought it would make the car more original. She also thinks it looks like something from The Fast And The Furious. LOL.

I like that spoiler alot, just what i was planning on doing, finances, I went for the spoiler extensions instead.
Where did you get it from and does it fit over the original holes.
Nice One

Hi VKL723, sorry i don't know where the spoiler comes from as it was already fitted on the car when i brought it.

"Does it fit the original holes", yes i think it does. Looking at Phil's spoiler, the fixings are probably in the same place.
But not sure.

Very nice car mate

I like your spoiler - nice to see something a bit different to the run of the mill scoobysport etc carbon type affair

Looks really good - i love the wheels as well - match the spoiler well as they both look mean!!!

Very Fast and Furious!!

Phil,

Am I alone in being sick of seeing your pics? Am warming to the girl pretending to open a bottle of wine by the neighbours fence, though detracts from your very silver car.

Why don't you add a silly little cosmetic mod amd post 20 more shots of the thing again. Yawn.

Get powered up and show us some PE curves man!

Phil,

Top answer. You are clearly bordering on the fringe of the "warranty mutany" club which I fully endorse. There are a couple of threads about IM tightening down on decat exhausts and their opportunity to walk away from claims.

Methinks, the performance advantages will be evident every time you drive(100% certainty) and the risk of a warranty knockback (2% likelyhood)are manageable.

If the world was full of conformists the likes of Prodrive (people that actually do not care about the Subaru driver in the street)would make more of a mint and enthusiasts such as SS anfd PE would suffer.


What do you feel?

I think perhaps a little unfair on Prodrive

But I have to agree that generally the people like scoobysport,PE and TSL offer a far higher level of service than the dealer network

But with the waarenty thing hanging over you. you do tend to keep with the dealer

Phil,

Why the decat speak then?

I had plenty of experience with Prodrive in the 90's and I know what they are like. Nice people!?!
