sorry if this has been asked before and if it has point me in the right direction as i couldn't find nothing?
i have been looking at buying a spoiler just the standard one that i see on the gti's but they seem to range from £15-£60 no matter the condition or colour?
my question is, are they all the same? because i have seen models other than the gti's with them on? so would the spoiler from lets say a 1.4 lx be the same shape as one on a gti 180 or any other gti?
also if i tiger seal it on is it possible to get it off again( without damage) if i want the car back to standard? i would bolt it on but then i would have four holes when it comes to taking it off?

Not 100% sure mate, unless it states on the description on eBay, razpulsedj is selling one in black that he took of his that fits properly, as for the tiger seal you have a hell of a job getting it of without damaging your paint I'd imagine cant say I've ever tryed to do it though, and there's ways around filling the holes if you bolted it

Can't really tell without looking at it. Genuine ones will have the pug logo stamped into the plastic on of the ends.
Best bet is to buy from here, or buy from eBay and collect it in person so you can check.

yeah i saw that one for sale £60 is abit to much, average there going at £40 posted, even less at scrappy plus i'd have to spray it taking it up to £100 minimum, if i needed a black one £60 would be ok as i wouldn't need to spray it.

yeah i agree its not bad if you want black one, but if you want it re sprayed it going to cost at least £100 all in, and thats if you can find somewhere that will spray it £40 even if you sprayed it yourself would cost £40+ in spray etc

Tigerseal or bolts will damage the boot. Not really a way you can put one without leaving something behind. I don't even plan to take mine off when I get rid of the car, too much hassle for the sake of a couple of quid.
