spring cleaning coming early for me
Removed the rear spoiler tonight and wow Pics say it all

Nothing wrong with a bit of a clean up.
|
My spoiler was off a few weeks ago getting detailed & I liked the look of it without the spoiler on :)
|
Good Job Lee... You have another alternative for the short term have some circular blue decals run off and cover the holes :)
|
Good thought I like that idea saves buying a new boot lid
|
It gives you chance to get used to it then, it's a wrx boot you need with the small wing for less holes.
|
After cleaning the dirt off it seems where all the grit etc has gone under the spoiler and where it must move when the wing flex has pitted the lid and also the safety straps that holds the top of the spoiler to the bottom they rust and left marks on boot so think I will touch them up and 're fit when I have five mins and just get a wrx boot lid and get it welded and painted
|
Go for an A Line lip spoiler Lee, I think they look great on a Blobeye.

What's the point in removing a spoiler ... only to put another one on?
I think that looks weird. I don't like it :| Nice to be a little different and stand out from all the others now and again |
Do like the look of that ty , gives it a nice little touch whilst getting a little down force

It might look better without the roof spoiler. Together it's not working for me.
EDIT: I was talking about the one Cannon Fodder posted pics of, not yours. They've added a roof spoiler. My plan is to keep my standard boot and spoiler and get a wrx one that I can switch when I feel the urge to make it look different |

I think that looks weird. I don't like it :| I'm not a fan of the STi picnic table but it serves a purpose, as do the roof spoiler and the rear boot lip spoiler, and both are proven genuine STi parts. |

That's cleaning to a new level Lee :cool:
|
Good work Lee,
Nice attention to detail, the spoiler really does gather some crap, when I removed mine it was pretty much in the same state as yours However I replaced the sponge gasket on the underside of the spoiler went for something a little thicker, to stop the dirt getting under the spoiler and prevent the spoiler touching the boot lid. |
