From what I remember there are 5 bolts and 2 screws. The spoiler is also stuck down with double sided pads....so it may take some persuasion

Thanks Craig,thought it might be something like that but didn't want to force it in case something broke.Just want to fetch it off because the top part has come a bit loose from the bottom and it was rattling slightly.I'll give it another go in the week.
See you at Derby i presume??
By the way,you've got a v smart looking motor there!!What sort of exhaust is that and how much roughly would one of those cost me as i'm looking to fitting one like that.

***Make sure youve got ALL the screws out before you start pulling hard*** I missed a few screws on mine but luckly my mate spotted them before i started yanking. Theres a few plastic catches that will pop out when you pull the spoiler. It shouldnt need a lot of force to remove it. I suggest that if you pull it and it doesnt come off then check all screws are undone before you really pull hard. You dont want to twist the boot!

RedMR2 has a departure 2 pro exhaust. I think they are over £1k new. Rogue Systems are working on a fully stainless copy thats going to be about £450 ish. Not sure when they are going to go on sale though. If your car is not a turbo then you cant have either of these exhausts.

yeah that's right mate, around £950 - £1000 for a new one.

I got mine second hand from Jase at MTTE for £550! :D

See you at Derby mate! :wink:
