Just my opinion mate, but I feel it's out of proportion with the car - not wide enough.

rev 1/rev 2 all the way for me, beefs up the rear end nicely. rev 3 is too short, and the rev 5 is quite max powery.

I prefer the rev 2 lights over rev 3's which is why I have them fitted, but draw the line there.

I appreciate that the rev 1/2 spoiler is the best also out of all the rev's but I don't fancy drilling 6 holes in my rear wings to fit the side pods....

sure the bond would come off if need be

Fancy a trade for a Rev 1 bootlid with spoiler and side pods for your Rev3 bootlid? :whistle:

If it's a standard car you're thinking of putting spats on had you thought of spoilerless?

I think thats like a bit of a custom made one, i've seen the skins for the vents for sale on ebay (not for a while now though), aqnd you basically bond it on to your standard lid and smooth it in.

Bingo,

It was from Chop -Shop but they are now defunk. Not sure if I'll be keeping yet, still not 100% sure on it myself.

I'll let you know if I decide to get rid of it

Cheers
