Hi all have been waiting to find a STI spoiler in the right color (Starlight Sliver).
Finally picked one up today complete with boot lid so well pleased
no drilling extra holes or messing about
Took just 20 mins to swap over
I am now not sure what to do about the Perrin spoiler braces
they dont look to bad to remove (two screws on the top and double sided tape on bottom)
Guy i got it from said i was mad to remove as they are expensive and lots of people wanted them
but i am not sure.
whats your thoughts

Depending how they stuck the lower edge of them down removal might not be an option.

rolexwrx

thats main worry
but it looks like it is just held with a thick sponge double sided tape
so should clean up

Live with them a while then decide

close up of the bottom
looks like double sided and a mastic type glue

Remove, clean up the crap and refit....

That looks like Tigerseal, will probably pull some laquer or paint off when you try to remove them.

Not a fan of them, I'd try and get them off without damaging the car!

I don't like them either and I'd remove them if it was me.

I have them on mine ( came with the car ) I like them although mine are a sh*te fit aswell mine only have double sided foam tape holding on but the front of them wobble about when driving as mine stick up at the front aswell.

I would say try and fit them better and keep, if you took them off what would you do? Fill the screw holes in the underside of the wing? The little holes they left would annoy me more than the stiffies tbh.

The fitment looks ****e, I would remove and refit or just remove, Looks a mess in that state.

I love the look of these fitted but i run a RCM Vain spoiler that looks as factory as they come.

I have them on my car and fitted them myself .The spoiler was repaired as they can crack in the top corners. The Stiffis prevent this and stop them wobbling about at speed too.

2 is restrained I think. Looks like Crystal Grey in the photo BTW. Nice colour and good call changing the boot to go with it.

Did you change over the torsion bars too or does the boot like to smack you in the head?

rolexwrx

Yes it's crystal grey
And no Have not changed anything else
Just the boot lid
It stays up ok but drops hard when lowered
Maybe best to get the bars to match

Have cleaned the car today
and have decided to leave them on for now
Will see how i feel living with them
And see what feed back i get from friends/other scobby drivers

rolexwrx

update have now fitted the right tortion bars to the boot lid
Big thank you to Poll postion for supplying and at a very fare price

so now it does not slam shut
now needs a push to close so much better
only took 10 mins and no tools found this how to on another site
my car is a new age and looked a bit different but worked the same

I bought them from somebody they were new but he had put the tape on the stiffy instead if on the lower spoiler. There supposed to be fitted with tape as the spoiler forces them into lower part keepimg them in Place.. If u take them off you just put blue stickers over the screw holes like when it left the factory. I had it to 140 and they never wobbled suprised they wobble now

I've not been over a ton 40

I like the look of em mate I'm just gonna stick some more stuff on em so they press onto the boot abit more.

How you finding the Audi fella??

The stiffi's are not a great fit. I had some rubber shoes made up for them to sit in.



As time went on the rubber shoes have moulded to the contour of the spoiler even better than the pic shows.

I was foaming when they arrived and the tape was already on. Was a nightmare to line them up. There is a video on YouTube some yank showing u how to fit them. I always intended to refit them but ya no what's its like haha.

I love it mate. Never gets dull people looking at me thinking how's he got that haha. Miss the scooby but in time al have a classic type r. ;-) bet u haven't been them speeds yet haha
