Thanks....
I want to add the STI Limited deck spoiler but they cost so much money $350-$400 US
I wanted a more "stealth/sleeper" look.

your lucky thats cheap for a spoiler over here they can cost in excess of £800 for a genuine subaru spoiler which i think equates to around $1600 or second hand one around £300 $600 if they ever come up

i quite like them without the rear spoiler

Hi, how much do you pay for a litre of fuel?

Last time I went to get some fuel in America a few years ago they still had the old school clocks on the pumps that just span round.

I grew up in Birmingham and loved it. Pontiac as a whole is a turd. My neighborhood is full of old beautiful houses built in the 20-30's and for the most part is well taken care of....my neighbors are all older and have been here for sometime. Everyone takes care of the house/yard for the most part also. Now, you go 3 streets over and its another story. The city has already laid off close to 60 police Officers claiming "no money"...thank god I dont work in the city.
