Nah that's the Forza splitter, the one I use in forza is the Garage Vary splitter which is this one.

Thinking I need to add a duckbill rear spoiler now. :grin:

Just scored some MaxdaSpeed lowering springs for £40. Result. Should mean there's enough left in the pre-christmas modding budget for the duckbill boot spoiler.

^ Nice mod

My Mrs used to have a 51 reg MX5. We got rid of it when I tubbed her up!

I must admit I did quite enjoy driving it. A good little fun car to drive and as relaible as they come.

The boys were down working on the rod and Marcus was doing some stuff on the RX7 and Fiesta. Was a fun morning.

So boot spoilers. To start with thought they looked poop, then with the splitter fitted thought it kinda needed something subtle, not too in your face and retro ish.

KG Works Ducktail ordered!

Some example pictures:
