Is a 106 GTI spoiler the same as a VT spoiler?

   saxos fit on a 106 so should fit - 106 spoilers are a little more expensive than saxo ones as the only came on GTI's as standard

   106 spoilers dont fit saxos easily.

    Its more difficult than that to fit to a saxo, or so i'm led to believe. Spoiler needs cutting and bending to make it sit flush with the saxo tailgate. Only seen 2 saxos with the Gti spoiler on, and both owners said it took a lot of work to get it on and look tidy

    As Andy says its an absolute pain in the arse to get a 106 gti spoiler to fit
    
    The underside seperates from the top side. The underside has to be cut out and binned straight away
    
    It then took a good deal of cutting down other bits, rebuilding up with fibreglass and then trimming again to get it to fit properly
    
    Worth it but it is a pain. If you've never touched fibreglass before i wouldnt even bother as itll cost a decent wedge if you have to pay a bodyshop to do it and perfect it for you
