New shoes look sweet.

I say its a negative on the s203 spoiler...I contemplated a carbon fibre one while back. Just seems out of place (unless my car had the fruit to back it up imo).

I think most of us can empathize with you about everyone watching while you park on cruises haha, tis all good in the end.

Nice work on ze car.

With your flaps Steph, just be careful that you don't back up into anything hard. If you do, it can tear your flaps right off.

Happened to me once. More than once.
And both flaps too.

*but seriously* on the spoiler side of things: since you love your rally, aren't you into a rally look with your car – that look being a spoiler which looks like this:

Could only imagine they'd be big dollars and hard to source Alex?
Just like the lip I guess, therefore = must do!

I can imagine that being a huge pain in the ass for rear vision, especially for someone short.

Perrin Stiffeners on STI wing, instead of the full blown wrc rear wing which probably cost heaps

If they come with mounting hardware, look at the instructions as to where they get installed, hold them roughly in the same spot and do a test fit with the flaps.
I'm guessing that the fronts won't hit the ground but will be fairly low and you will notice them touching speed bumps.

As I said the other night, it isn't too hard to drill holes higher up so they don't drag

That's the way to go. Even if they aren't dragging, but they look like they should be a bit higher. I had to do this because mine were going to drag front and rear

Forget the wing, subtle is best I reckon....

and I'd have a set of scissors on hand for the flaps!






Hahahahahahahaha.
