cabby tech 2 spoiler????first time i have ever heard such a thing.... thought (to the point of being quite sure) there was only 1 type of mtech 2 spoiler.

this appears to be a mtech 2 copy, the lower part of the spoiler should curve upwards to match the lines of the upper part, your appears to be the standard plastic/rubber boot spoiler with a second tech 2 copy added on top. The join where they meet at each edge of the upper and lower spoiler also do not appear standard

the orginials normally had M Technic stuck in a small recess just above the ''5'' of your 325 badge.

you can see a picture below of the badge and note the curve on the lower part of the spoiler.

as for its value somewhere around 10-20quid if copy or 30-50 quid if original.

good luck!!

You know what I mean, I heard there were different kits for cabs and incidently assumed that there were different...

You know what I mean! :P

You can see the little embedded region on the far right of the picture, but the MTech badge is missing.

I agree!!


C2 for info the all tech 2 parts are same for tin top and cab except the lower sill covers, they are slightly different on a cab to cater for the wider sills required to make up for the lack of roof. then of course the 4 door/touring have different door pods to allow for rear door, but front/rear bumper and spoiler are identical accross the board.

Plus sill covers differ between 2 and 4 door as 2 door have slots for the rear quarter pods to hook into.

The spoiler looks like a replica part to me too.
