Had a good look round your car tonight Twins and althought I didn't think it could be possible it is even better in the flesh, rear bumper looks spot on now! Will have to have a look under the bonnet next time

sorry but i'm gonna rock the boat here. i really don't think it suits the lines of the car. imo there is nothing wrong with the way the standard rear bumber looks.

never realy thaught about a cossie spoiler on an rst but i trust it will look stunning in your hands but id leave the black bit on it as it would go with the lower defuser bit...thats my oppinion any way but im sure it will look good

Hmmmm, im not sure on the spoiler.

It could look good but i dunno? Probably no harm in doing it, seeing how it looks when painted/mock fitted?

Although judging by the rest of the cool shit you have done with this car i trust it will look the tits!

Being honest with you Dave, i'd spray up the boot and see what it looks like without a spoiler. I think a spoiler MAY make the back end too busy now.....

Also not too sure on that spoiler, again i'd want to see it sprayed before commenting!

Boy done good though so far!

Im not keen on the look of the spoiler I think that if it was chopped and shortned slightly it might look better and more in propotion

Ok thanks for the comments ,i think the 90 spec is staying ,2 reasons ,1 i love the 90 spec and 2,the location of the center bolt on the cossie spolier will go straight through the brake light

Think it will be ok mate the brake light is virtually the same colour as the car ,so does not even stand out

it dose look good but ive been looking into spoilers recently as im bored of my 90 spec one and iv found that the old rover 218 (grandads style car) has a spoiler similar to that ill show pics later and also the renault 21 has a more square version which also REALLY suits im planing on putting one of the above on my car in the near future
