Cheers.

Time you prep it, primer it and spray it you might as well just buy a genuine 2nd hand one from here, ebay, breakers etc in the colour you need.
Might get a good deal on the bootlid as well, I'm sure you need different boot springs if you put a STI spoiler into a non STI bootlid......I may be wrong

My experience with aftermarket spoilers would lead me to say, buy a genuine one.

Aftermarket ones are heavier and crack.

And yes, even with a genuine one, you should have stiffer springs........or be VERY careful lowering the bootlid

Ah right thanks for your advise, Think i will save up for a genuine spoiler Then. I have seen some riser blocks for sale for the original spoiler. I might just put those on until i can purchase an sti one.
