| 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 :-) |
