Looking to get a STI replica spoiler for a MY01 bugeye, seen two I like, one from Grade A, £250 unpainted and one from DR Motorsport, £400 painted.

Opinions and experiences of both appreciated.

I had two replica rear spoilers for my bugeye and in the end jumped in at the deep end and bought the real thing at £895 fitted

I'd look first for a used "real" one if possible IMHO

If i were you i would pay the extra and get the real thing
Speaking from experience as my sti6 copy started to crack around the corners It is now that bad that it's off the scoob.So am now looking for an original one for my classic my00

 

I've got an STi6 copy on mine. It came from GradeA. No problems whatsoever.

I ordered it at 3.30pm one afternoon, and it was here by 09.30 the next day

The guy that painted it for me said the quality was excellent. It fit, first time, perfectly.

I got the Original one from grade A second hand for £400 so i'd look for a propper one first (not saying theres owt wrong with copies)

 

another vote for the STI Oe version

 

I too got a v6 copy but...mine developed a stress crack which became worse and I have seen a few copies do the same in the same place.

Left it on the car when I sold it but could see a difference in the quality of the OEM and a fibre glass copy, you gets whats ya pays for I suppose.

 

Just got a sti copy spoiler last week from scoobyworld for the bugeye. Cost £290 or there abouts. Excellent quality and service arrived next working day in a HUGE box .

Getting sprayed and fitted as we speak.

Also forgot to add, if you go for it the DR motorsport one will fit the existing holes.

 

Cheers guys, looks like it's an OE STI one for me then!

Just got to pay for it now!

as I was told by someone who fit a few and sold a very simular spoiler

" yes you don't have to drill extra wholes, may be thats why they leak"

you pays your money
