Cheers for the comments guys!
The saloon spoiler at some angles I hate! It's like too much is going on at the back! But other angles it looks wicked.
Same with the wheels, pictures they look a tad small and that's what I was worried about before I got them, but in the flesh they look wicked and they make it very low which I like. But if everything goes to plan I should be taking the saloon spoiler of soon
Ill try and keep on top of this thread now and may need some help off you valver boys!

Alexander, the "spoiler" is from a 340/360 saloon.
This to me:
is more like a rear wing. At least in English English. American English is a completely different language again.
Unless it's an age thing.

I've always thought English English is "spoiler" American English is "rear wing"

I'll take your word for it Chris. Well we'll have to make a big glossary of car parts here so we don't get confused.
