lol! and a lot of people say the spacers look good and that it shortens the front end a bit! see marmite ha ha!
yeah its got a front mount so thought the hole could be used to let heat out. all elecs are covered to protect from moisture too! i think it looks smother without a scoop but not the usual gx sport bonnet route

hi tubby i started off doin a detango on the indicator lenses then got all happy with some satin black paint!! a lot of people leave the side light and indicator areas chrome so thought id go a bit differenent and did them bits too!
jonmc it was a hard choice the spoiler! it looked to plain with nothing but my mate said once we'd glued it on that was it it was stayin there!! its growed on me now but its all part of what makes it a bit 'different'

lol! dont think the spoilers downforce would make a lot of difference unless you were talkin porche/ferrari top end speeds but maybe someone on here will correct me!
have done a couple of track days and it doesnt feel any more unstable if different even!
the roof spoiler was from an ebay shop called 2fast2cool2
they were on in auction and buy it now formats, tried my luck on auction and got it for £70 delivered!
they are a good seller dealt with them a lot for my old nissan parts completely trouble free!
thanks again guys my heads startin to swell! although its starting to get turned by EVO'S a bit now wonder what they look like despoilered!!

wiley the boot was done properly! the holes were plated from the back then welded over the top and grinded over till smooth then barely a skim of filler and sanded. my mate works in a main dealer bodyshop and is a bit of a wizard!!
martin satin black is ok but i would go gloss black, i wish i had! when theyre clean the bloke who details it sometimes sprays them with somekind of silicon and they look gloss at first which to me looks much better.had gloss on my orange focus st and it did look so much better
