Hi all,
just wondering where i could get my low spoiler changed and replaced with the Sti high spoiler,i live in lincolnshire if that helps.
What would i expect to pay?,have any of you done the change over.

Its a fairly simple mod to do at home (you will need a friend to help). Should only take an hour or so and depending what year your car is not to much drilling.

has anyone here had the polyurethane spoiler, i had the original GRP one from scoobyworld and hate it, it looks ok at a glance, but the actual surface finish is undulated and as a result reflections are distorted, the end panels are slightly concave, not perfectly flat like the oem spoiler. is the poly spoiler as good as an oem?

Price wise you should pick one up for £150 ish second hand (they are always up for sale plus you might get lucky and get a colour match)
Fitting wise piece of wee. about 6 bolts hold on the old one, take them out you might need to cut the seal away with a stanley blade.
Offer up the new one, add extra holes for bolts if needed, get some good glue on the spoiler and bolt it on.

should take an hour or so.

Take the leap, its an easy mod and will help with your confidence if you are new to the working on cars business.

Lets just say, you get what you pay for.

A used OEM one will be a much better buy.

Agreed. My Scoobyworld one was **** Took the bodyshop where I had it sprayed an age to get the pinpricks and wavy finish out of it. Its still not perfect but it was costing me a fortune. Scoobyworld weren't helpful either.

Get an OEM one.

OEM 100%, search on after market just shows bad reviews.

Just recently fitted a STI 5 wing to my car, cost me a stupid amount in total.

I used - www.japperformanceparts.co.uk - They are a breakers.

I paid £295 for the spoiler and then i brought a STI 5/6 boot from them as these have the correct holes drilled unlike my Turbo 2000 boot, i didn't want to drill my boot. The boot cost me £35 from them also.

I then had to get both resprayed. 150 for the spoiler, 120 for the boot.

So in total 600 :/

It was deff worth spending on the parts, the spray costs though, well i think they could have done better. On close inspection once home i noticed a few bits i wasn't happy about, but they aren't noticeable really. Deff going to try another body shop next time though.

Thanks,
Sam

Another vote for getting a used original. They are lighter, a perfect fit, they don't crack or go orange peel on the paint etc etc.

You get what you pay for
