understand your point,but i was limited to my choice of spoiler as she came to me with an wrx boot lid as the previous owner wanted a low rise spoiler,therefore really a gb270 spoiler would fit easy as an oem sti spoiler would require drilling many holes.But i must say im biased to this one.

if you want some advice from someone who has done this, dont bother as it ruins the ride.
i still have mine on but only due to having some ap brakes to fit,otherwise i would have 17's.

your money would be better spent on coilovers as this will improve the handling and reduce your wheel arch gap and give a better stance.

+1 i too have 18's due to the porsche brakes but its a very very harsh ride,im running on 225/40/18 rubber

i think that lower grill would look good painted black,it looks a bit "stuck on" at the minute

p.s im not picking on you-honest

18" prodrive alloys

i dont find the ride harsh at all

surely lowering on coils be harsher ride?
