Default Wrx to Sti Spoiler Swap Help

Hello everyone,

I just purchased an Sti spoiler and got quoted £100 pounds to fit the damn thing. Considering I just payed £300 for It. So the million dollar question is, does anyone have any idea where or who can fit the spoiler for as cheap as possible. I have just purchased the car so am very tight on money. I am from East london.

Regards
Kassim

Cost will probably be down to the fact you will need a lot more holes in the boot lid to fit it. Best bet is to get an STi boot lid, normally around £60 and then its a really simple swap.

Most breakers will have boot lids available, just depends on the colour you need.

You have a fair point but I thought you had to swap the key lock on the boot lids too. Thought that might cost more. Sorry I am abit new to this.

I know there are 6 extra holes that need drilling on the bootlid to accommodate the spoiler.

Are there any specialists who can help with the install or is there a body shop you recommend that is fairly priced, that can help me with this.

Regards
