Have I anything to fear? I have been told fibreglass is not the best of materials often appearing rippled on flat surfaces? I like the look of the DR Motorsport WRC version as it is scaled down but not so sure about the fact it is a 4 piece unit.

Any hints, tips, recommendations greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,

Otis.

I've got the DR WRC scaled down one on my car.

In terms of quality of finish - I reckon it's pretty good.
(Perhaps not quite as good as the original, but that might be down to the paint job done by my bodyshop - still very good though.)

As far as it being a four piece spoiler - that's not really a problem either.

You might find, though, depending on what model you have, that you have to drill a couple of extra holes in your boot to make it fit (my bodyshop did.)

All in, I'm very happy with mine.
Best thing, of course, is to see a finished one in the flesh.

If you're ever in Edinburgh, you're welcome to have a closer look...

Cool

Most of the decent ones like sti5 are injection moulded plastic as far as i'm aware and not fibreglass.
