Do it, every man and his dog has a spoiler fitted. Mine was never supposed to have one. Took me months to find a boot with no holes. Picked this up from HDC Subaru this morning.

Chance would be a fine thing, wait till she spots those new wheels then there will be trouble. Had it covered up since I bought them.....

It does look like it's missing something I agree but it looks ok in the flesh.

I used to get all my *ahem purchases* delivered to work, sneak them home, shove them in the shed and then put them on later.....






The fact that she is my ex-wife has no bearing on the matter whatsoever
