Default STI V5 FIRST MOD! MAKING HER A LITTLE LESS AGGRESIVE...

Hi all.....Changed my rear carbon spoiler with a mid level one...

Opinions please..?


I prefer the mid level...The big carbon one was abit in your face

My first real mod...Next the roof vane will probably come off..

Spoiler is available for sale in classified section

BEFORE




AFTER!

looks loads better and will only benefit from the loss of those stupid 'vortex generators' too!

17" gunmetal/steel grey rota boosts would look great on your silver car, or a nice set of gunmetal revolution milleniums

I'm liking you more already.

If you have uprated brakes/discs you'll need to be carefull here with going to a smaller size of wheel. most have gone from a 16" wheel to a 17" just to fit bigger brakes underneath.

Yeah that's biggest problem right now..it has the standard brakes which seem awful compared to my old newage that had brembos..think 16s for if and when it snows then get brembos and rotas for when it clears up! I hate the 18s that came on it they ride rubbish and look odd..used to love the whole low profile thing before but to drive quickly on normal roads need abit more tyre
