By the ecomotive spoiler do you mean that ghastly big black lip they stick on?

IMHO I can't see how the 5 door spoiler will look better than the 3 door. But I'm open to persuasion

Ghastly big black lip????

1st- Ghastly? ok it's your opinion.
2nd- BIG??? It is not bit at all compared to the ones we are talking about now.
3rd- Black- Black white pink grey. It is whichever color you decide to paint it.

Here you have an example of how it fits

Hehehe no problem. I was just trying to make my point.
Most people think the accessories spoiler is the best looking one. In my opinion that "cut" in the middle takes its beauty off.

This one is more "traditional", but in my opinion also "low profile" and fits nice.
I have a black SC and don't really know if I will ever fit one. If I could, I'd fit this one, but here in portugal it costs around 200£ compared to the 80£ of the "usual one".

It's a lot of money. Probably, I'll buy skirts first and then the spoiler. But if this spoiler was cheaper in england I'd probably buy it from there ehhehe

Right now my eibach pro-kit are comming. Will see how it goes then:p

Why are you trying to bodge a 5dr one to fit? how do you think it will look better?

1. because it cost me £20 to buy!

2. because it fits "OVER" the original spoiler bit and not stuck on. Therefore there are no join lines between the old and new bits. Hope that makes sense

Of course there are joins between the two bits. you can't put something onto something else without there being a join line
and the 5dr one adds a slight bump to the top of the bootlid detracting from the smooth line from front to back.
You'd be better off getting a 3dr one and using some filler to smooth the join line in surely?

It fits on top so the only join line is on the part where the boot opens anyway. that lump you talk about will be minimised because half of it will be cut off.

And depending on what favours i can pull i may be able to bend that bit 90drgrees so the only join is vertical in the roof/spoiler gap, not sure yet as im working away atm.

and around the sides and it probably wont sit on the window properly.

I'd get the right one tbh and sell your one.

you'd have to cut most of it off (or really go to town with the filler) to get it to fit as the angle of the boot/rear windscreen is completely different. (compare nutkins picture, the spoiler edge is the line where the carbon section ends, with Imran2v's pictures, 3dr = straight edge 5dr=curver edge.
I' with Nutkin, get it, sell it on eBay for normal price and put the money towards buying a proper one

Looks fantastic! Much nicer than the ''staggered'' trailing edge ones.Nice painting too!
