Rig booked in for a tidy up, new wing, SE skirts to be fitted, rear valance colour coded for a sleeker look but I'm not sure whether to take off the spoiler or colour code it - any pics of spoilerless 30's?
Here's a before, will update in due course....

Mine is already colour coded, personally I like it, this is the best pic I have at the moment.

I`m also going to colour code the rear valance, sills, mirrors and bumpers.

sorry to hijack the thread, but.............
Ziggy - did your cab already have tech1 f&r spoilers, or did you fit them?
If you did fit them, was the rear easy?

Oh dear, oh dear... the rear's Zender (as are the skirts, & got the front in the garage too...), & the front's BMW, but not m-tech!orangecurry wrote:sorry to hijack the thread, but.............

The rear was easy enough, but I ain't particularly satisfied with the job I've done & it fits differently to the m-tech anyway! Skirts were a PITA though...
& as for boot spoilers (dragging us back on topic), it came with a tech-2, which I immediately swapped for a tech-1, and then got a bootlid with no spoiler & had that sprayed up when I was getting some other bodywork done. Still got the tech-1 on the old bootlid, but I doubt I'll ever put it back!

I was chatting to Aza about removing the spoiler on our cars (they look 99% the same!) And I think it will look great.
Will make the car look lower and wider, give it more of a squat aggressive look.
I'm not allowed to do it now, Aza has laid claim to the "spoilerless tech2 kitted delphin 2dr" title

IMO, depends on the stance of the car. If you have deep dish, you need mtech2 spoiler, any other rim, spoilerless.
MTechI shouldn't even count, MTech2 all the way baby haha

Spoiler less, in my opinion the tech 2 spoiler spoils the look of the whole car. (almost chavvy) se is much better if you have to.
