patch234 Unregistered P	So, I have a spoiler fitted to my car, soon to be replaced with a MS Style version though. Whilst I was being wound up at Joe's today, I noticed that Maria had one fitted to her car, but it was fitted differently! So, which is fitted correctly?

Still, will be replaced though with one of these little puppies That's busa's old car - what a beauty Same wheels as on Custard. Thankfully Custard doesn't share that spoiler. I'm in the Tim camp Nor do blended skirts suit imho. But thats another subject that's been covered on here before Currently tracking Renault 182

There's obviously only one spoiler that LOOKS good on the Coupe.. http://sfk.ibk.se/depa/showfile.php?carpic_no=2440&type=picture Re-Bangled
