Martin, I just looked on Ebay and I couldn't find them. Just looked through my files and came across his email address: [email protected]

I need some more as I'm having my compo's powdercoated soon.

Thanks Dave, i'll give him a shout.

I've just managed to pick up a set of MO's, but they're stickerless and are also missing the caps.

Right I'm using some second thoughts on something..... My spoiler :confused:

I'm starting go think that my F2 Spoiler is starting to act like a parachute at higher speeds which it probably is sadly :( and this is the mean reason why it's making me second guess it.

So should I keep the F2 spoiler

I'd go for taking off the spoiler Dave, I doubt it's giving you any downforce, will be creating drag and the gti spoiler should help the airflow seperate from the rear of the car hopefully reducing drag.

looking good,agree getting rid of that spolier,isnt it a bit of a bad idea having downforce on the back of a front wheel drive car??surely when it works its going to lift the front?

I dont think its going to give you much downforce so dont worry about that.....but it will give some drag

But your not racing

So if you like the look of it, keep it

I like it - suits your car

Thanks Rob, nice to have a tidy comment made on the matter! Think it's causing too much drag?? Or just being stupid about it all?

For what you use your car for, it makes no difference whatsoever in my opinion.

Like I said, if you like it, leave it.
