WRC Style Spoiler FINALLY Fitted!! What do you think?

[Yella]

I know we've all seen WRC spoilers fitted before but I've just had mine done. I'm wondering if there are any other 'Atacama Beige Metallic' (Bronze in other words) Octavias with a WRC style spoiler fitted?

I know they can be a Marmite modification but let me know what you think.

It's not perfect when you get close up to be honest, but the spoiler did only cost me £40 on fleabay! And unless you get to within 6 foot it looks as good as it does in the photos.

Sorry, but no no no........... :thumbdwn:

[ryand]

Sorry, like marmite, hate it

[Yella]

2 negatives so far!!

Come on WRC Skoda fans!! Give me something positive!

[vRS Carl]

Sorry looks Chav to me

[RobClubley]

Sorry not for me either - I don't think you can get away with a spoiler like that on a beige car!

[cableguy]

Not to bad.

Needs vRS front bumper and a set of 18's

[Yella]

Wahey!!

1 ok. The 18's are sat in the garage. I'm just pondering a refurb and some new skoda centre caps before putting them on. As for the VRS front I was trying to steer away from just making it into a VRS but it's not out of the question.

I bought my octy because it is discreet..sorry, but your new spoiler just makes it look 'go faster'

Sorry - for me just looks sooooo weird on an Elegance

[corradoboy]

Subaru's and Evo's manage to get away with the big spoilers, maybe because their road cars bare more of a resemblance to the actual rally cars which inspire the look, but most other cars look a bit silly. Having said that, there is a bit of a backlash in the Scooby community with many owners going for the 'spoilerless' look, which I have to agree, looks very good. Sorry, but on a family bland-wagon, in Jewish Racing Gold, it looks a bit Barry.

Sorry no way

[Eire-Andy]

Do you like it?

It's all personal preference, I bought the vrs for it's wolf in sheeps clothing traits, so to me a spoiler larger than stock is not for me.

All the power to you though, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

[BRUN]

i think for starters you need bigger wheels to get away with a spoiler like that, but even with those im not sure it would look right

[Yella]

Well the bigger wheels are in the garage awaiting fitting. Unfortunately the car is away with SWMBO so that's having to wait.

I've done the wolf in sheeps clothing for 2 years now. Now I fancy a bit more of a wolf in wolf's clothing!

Looks like the 'no's' have it then :rotz:

But I like it

[faboka vrs]

Sorry only works on vRS's.

[Yella]

Sorry only works on vRS's.

Well my new wheels are the same as these so with the exception of the front and rear bumpers (and the colour of course) mine will be exactly the same as the one above. why wouldn't it work then?

Because it's just NOT a vRS!

[BRUN]

sorry but IMO it doesnt even work on a vRS !

[martziniuk]

sorry but IMO it doesnt even work on a vRS !

Aye it's very border line on a vRS IMO

[David 8]

Yes.............................

No ...........................

[corradoboy]

Just to emphasise what I said about the originators of the silly big wing turning their backs on them, this is a Scoobynet members Spec C Type RA-R, which is probably the best Subaru money can buy....

Spoiler-less !

Now that does look the biz..... nothing 'spoiling' it

[Shifty]

Sorry, but no - you are creating a sheep in wolf's clothing. It doesn't suit the car at all imho. It's beige, it's an elegance, the rest of the car has nothing whatsoever sporty about it.

But I like it

That's all that matters.
