not sure what spoiler to get I like the vtr one but would this be hard to fit? Is ebay the best place to get the spoilers?
Is there a step by step instruction to install the spoilers or is it a difficult job?
thanks for replies in advance.

I went for a mk2 spoiler

And you just bond it on, 10 minute job(with obv drying time) will need a mate to give ya a hand though

And only use tiger seal or bonding froma body shop, do not use bonding you can get in shops no matter how strong it is like no more nails

So it's not better to screw and bond, or is that not needed. And yerh the mk2 looks nice ;) thanks for your help though! :D

the mk 2 spoiler screws threw your window i doubt its a good idea to dril threw your rear screen so unless you buy a boot with the holes in or the spoiler already on i woudl just bond.

tiger seal is used by bodyshops and is brilliant no need for screws mines held firmly in place:y:

Ya can get Tiger Seal off eBay too

But yeah, if you have a mate with a mk2 spoiler it would be an idea to look at it before you put yours i nthe wrong place because once it's on, it's staying on
