   Just interested what others opinions are on the vt* spoilers, keep them on or go for the smoother look and take it off.
   
   I have always liked the spoilers but since having to change my bootlid, my new one doesnt have one, but i am in two minds whether to put the spoiler off my old bootlid back on. Without one i think the car looks a bit more clean cut.

   Have you got pics with and without? Personally, i think it depends on the rest of the car.

    Sorry probably should of said at the start, my cars a mk1 vtr changed the boot due to a big dent when i bought it. The new boot has never had a spoiler on so there isnt holes or anything. I have got my mk1 spoiler still on the old boot so that could go back on.

    in which case get a mk1 spoiler as its easier to fit, but personally is just get a mk2 spoiler, cut off the taps that go thrpough the window and bond it to the boot.
