Cool

Ok, I'm having real problems deciding on a spoiler for my 02 DGM WRX. Its down to the Prodrive, the Rallitec and the standard 'raisers'.

FWIW I currently think Rallitec is nicest, but expensive and becoming very common. Not 100% sure the Prodrive suits the lines of the car. And the raisers actually look surprisingly good in piccys, are very cheap (comparitively), dont see em much but not yet seen em in the flesh.

Votes please?

(PS thanks to people whos piccys I've used)

Prodrive: £500





Raisers: £170





Rallitec: £450




HELP!

Got to be the Rallitec for me. The Prodrive one is minging (IMHO). The raisers are OK, but get the Rallitec, you know you want to.
If they are becoming popular it just proves how much people like them.

Prodrive looks like a dodgy "stick on" for a nissan sunny.
Not sure about the extensions, seen them on another link and looked rather w@nk.
Rally tech looks the nuts, and £450 painted (withhout carbon) good price.
IMHO anyway.

Whose is the black car? Very nice, is that the new JW Racing exhaust?

As ive got the rallytech i would reccomend that. However there are problems with it:

1. There is like a water bath on the spoiler, so when it rains, water is collected (hence not good if you need to open your boot)

2. The brake light fitting looks dodgy & done unprofessionally

3. They are a b**ch to prepare (apparently)

4. Loads of people with this spoiler i know had leaks through the spoiler.

In conclusion to this i would recommend the TSL Version which has no brakelight (looks less tacky) & fitted professionaly by their quality workmanship. Prices are farly similar if i remember correctly.

Thought id mention that if your ever around Guildford or surrey meet you can have a look at my spoiler.

Personally I think the quality of the Rallytech one is not worth the money. If I was to get another Impreza, I would pay more and get better.

Not the best finish.

Not a great fit, not bad but not great, I did get water in my boot, but not as bad as others that bought them.

The brake light fit is poor, I had to put silicone round it to stop water getting in in.

It made my boot rattle on the lock, as it weighed a bit more than the standard one......and I hate rattles[img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

well IMHO they are not worth it.

You can either listen to those that have owned them, had them painted and fitted them, or just go on looks....and the rallytech one does look nice
