Default GTi Spoiler question...

Hi guys
Have spent the last few months getting my R reg GTi back to its former glory. Nearly there now apart from needing a new front bumper.
Anywho I have kept it pretty much standard through out. Only mods are a K+N induction kit (already fitted when I bought it!) twin tail pipe (already fitted when I bought it but thinking about replacing it!) but the question is I have just found a whale tail spoiler for it....
So the question is: to whale tail or not to whale tail???
My head says no, but my chav side says do it! do it! lol

Definitely, definitely no.

The lower section of the Cosworth spoiler can look ok on a MK6, but stick to standard. Suits the car just fine.

About as much of a good idea as shagging your own sister. Cossie whale tales look great....... on a Cosworth
