Doesn't look the best with the gromets but I didn't want the spoiler on anymore because it looks better IMO. The only issue I have with it is where the spoiler sat on the boot it has scratched away the paint in certain areas and also where the spoiler bolts onto the boot, it actually has a little lip around the edge of the holes and doesn't sit flat with the rest of the boot. You're also doing to yours what I want to do to mine, spoiler removed, lowered on ba mark 2 gtp rims. It look awesome like in that picture, especially with the brembo brakes.

Guest XR09 Guests Posted 11/04/10 01:02 AM Share Posted 11/04/10 01:02 AM (edited) I was quoted $400 to fill the holes and respray the boot lid. That is mates rates and I would have to do the buff and polish. I am thinking the DJR or something similar. Does the F6E little kicker one use the same holes as the XR's ??? Thinking something like they used on the XB, XC that enhances that nice line around the ass of the car Edited 11/04/10 01:03 AM by XR09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
