saxos fit on a 106 so should fit - 106 spoilers are a little more expensive than saxo ones as the only came on GTI's as standard

Were they not fitted on the Rallye and the Quiksilver aswell?

How would you go about fitting one?

Just a matter of clips etc?

Its more difficult than that to fit to a saxo, or so i'm led to believe. Spoiler needs cutting and bending to make it sit flush with the saxo tailgate. Only seen 2 saxos with the Gti spoiler on, and both owners said it took a lot of work to get it on and look tidy

As Andy says its an absolute pain in the arse to get a 106 gti spoiler to fit

The underside seperates from the top side. The underside has to be cut out and binned straight away

It then took a good deal of cutting down other bits, rebuilding up with fibreglass and then trimming again to get it to fit properly

Worth it but it is a pain. If you've never touched fibreglass before i wouldnt even bother as itll cost a decent wedge if you have to pay a bodyshop to do it and perfect it for you
