Received my roof spoiler today from the US. I'll leave this space open for anyone interested, & I'll be posting some photo's of it once it's installed. It's more of a (rear) window lip if some people are wondering, or have never seen one before.

Cheers.

Was the spoiler from Luxury Sports USA?
Are you also considering the Vertex bonnet spoiler
(the one that covers the window wipers)?

I actually found it on eBay Motors. Only cost me $150 delivered or so. Great fit. I will post photos soon.

And I just looked the bonnet spoiler up, that's the first time I've ever seen it, I would definitely consider it, the price tag is a bit high though for my liking at the moment.

Cheers.

I'd go as far as to say that this spoiler would be more likely to increase your drag, not reduce it. However if you like it, I'm all for your enjoyment

Yeah Joe the drag is noticeably increased. I think I only get about 730k's from a tank of fuel and I used to get 732.

I had a vauxhall viva in 86 - mine didn't have a roof spoiler, that must have been on the deluxe model.

I don't think the 1200cc could have coped with any additional drag :-)
