Roof Spoiler

Danny.B. · 04-25-2013, 01:54 PM

Yay or nay?

Im still undecided!! Some angles i look it, and some i dont!

Hopefully with new rims it will suit the car better, looks a bit odd with all the "stuck on bits" with OEM wheels!

superflyguy9 · 04-25-2013, 02:12 PM

Yay

Russ G · 04-25-2013, 02:51 PM

No for me, like you say too many stuck on bits.

Danny.B. · 04-25-2013, 03:05 PM

Going to take the wind deflectors off this weekend to see if that waters it down a tad!

ssc330d · 04-25-2013, 03:12 PM

Nay for me too am afraid. A bit cluttered.

Mind you, it looks better than the spoiler on the Vauxhall(?) in the background.

(Sorry if that's yours btw!)

Danny.B. · 04-25-2013, 03:35 PM

Lol thats my dad, always wind him up about the ironing board!

Will see how car looks minus deflectors, to de clutter a bit!

Danny.B. · 04-25-2013, 03:36 PM

Thats the look im going for, so the wheels should bring it all to life, and that one has no deflectors too, and it does look pretty good, IMO!

$pringy · 04-25-2013, 04:53 PM

Looks too much, spoils the roof line IMO

Are those the wheels you are getting?

Danny.B. · 04-26-2013, 01:37 AM

When they are back in stock, yes indeedy!

safety_james · 04-26-2013, 02:13 AM

Those rims on the red E90 will look great on yours!

xenon · 04-26-2013, 02:18 AM

Lovely wheels. Spoiler is a big no - reminds me of all the RGA shite we used to stick on our Capris and Golfs in the 80s. We thought they looked cool back in the day but they didn't and they certainly don't now.

Amini77 · 04-26-2013, 02:25 AM

I get a lot of compliments on my roof spoiler..I'm looking for a performance lip to match it at the moment. So I say YAY. I think you should take those window shades off..it's too much of a JDM thing (as are rear window spoilers but those are just tooooo JDM)

gangzoom · 04-26-2013, 02:41 AM

I’ve got a le mans blue car with a boot and roof spoiler. I think it makes the rear of the car much more interesting. Though at the moment the roof spoiler is off the car, the heavy snow made the double sided M3 tape come loss, will get it properly fitted/bounded to the car in the next few weeks.

It's all down to personal taste, I like mine, and so does my 60 year old neighbour

.

The car as I bought it:.

Rear of the car with standard 18inch wheels:

Rear of the car now with 19inch wheels:

What wheels are they? Where are you getting them from?

xenon · 04-26-2013, 02:48 AM

Must admit gangzoom, that does look good.

AdamC · 04-26-2013, 03:48 AM

I like it. As you say, take the wind deflectors off and your on to a winner.
Will look great on the new wheels.

P 5UML · 04-26-2013, 03:53 AM

no wing deflectors but YES to the roof spoiler

Here's how it was before:

How it sits now after LCI conversion, trying to find a performance spoiler atm:

Danny.B. · 04-28-2013, 12:24 PM

Gave the car a good clean, and i think its safe to say im leaving it as it is, not taking anything off (tried without delfectors but i missed them right away!

)
