Default Anyone replaced a Sti 03 spoiler with a UK300 one?

I want to fit a UK300 Prodrive spoiler to my MY03 Sti and bought one on ebay taking a subaru dealers advice that the Sti highrise uses 4 bolts when in fact its 10. So as I dont want loads of blanking grommets on my boot I have two choices sell it or buy a new boot? anyone gone down the boot route???
cheers

A WRX owner will bite your hand off. Offer the bootlid and spoiler for IRO £250 plus the WRX items. Easy to swap over. 4 bolts, 1 electrical connector and the lock, which is just a slide out clip. 3/4 of an hours work.

Yup, one of the worst looking spoilers out there IMO, each person is different blah blah, it'll be a different story come time to sell it though.

or the rear wing from http://www.terrahawks.org.uk/

I think they are a good comprimise between the flat and STI wings

Some **** broke the STi style spoiler of my 03 WX a couple of weeks back, so if you're selling an STi spoiler, i'm interested.

I would have to swop boots aswell as mine has 10 holes in it!!! factory fitted Sti's have 10. Aftermarket ones 4 so they fit WRX's.

ah right, my boot lid has an extra 2 holes in it to fit the aftermarket spoiler i had.
I'#ve just finished putting the original spoiler back on along with some attractive rubber blanking grommets. Looks great!

Cheers anyway.
