I might have added a ducktail personally but that would be it.

hopefully you just mocked it up before drilling the lid?

I'm in Mark's camp here, I think it looks better without. The rear bumper alone suites the shape of the stock car beautifully and the spoiler makes it all look too square, if you know what I mean.

Of course this is coming from the guy who has a green car! What do I know about taste  s:) :) s:)

I reckon it looks good, but I think I preferred it without. That really small little tiny spoiler that you can get might have worked better IMO (what's that spoiler called? I might get one)

There are always going to be some who like/dislike a spoiler, but as long as you like it Alan, then thats all that matters at the end of the day.

(If you've drilled your boot lid and now having second thoughts... then thats another problem altogether!)

You mean the one that looks like a miniture version of the ducktail spoiler... can't remember if its called the lip spoiler?

I always thought the rear of the car cried out for a spoiler, but as you can see, opinions vary. Basically, your car, its what you like that counts.

There is enough pros and cons for that not to matter Alan.

I like it it with and without the spoiler, now theres one for you.

But one think I would say it maybe paint the inserts up satin black, just to break up the rear a bit, too much red for my liking. Having the black bit painted in breaks it up a bit giving an impression it hangs lower and more curvy, with the complete red makes it look more boxy.

The not so extreme one

I actually like it just as it is, but as some have said, that's not at all important. I agree, if you like it, then that's all that matters. Appearance mods are so subjective, people will never agree.  So enjoy it mate.  s8) 8) s8)

I know what you mean about there being too much red at the rear. I really like those mock-ups Ilogik - good idea!   s8) 8) s8)

Why buy a red car and paint it black, its like the morons who have an orange car with a carbon bonnet in black!
If you dont like red, dont buy a red car, simples!
