added on to the GSI spoiler or straight on the boot, Do you think these actually do improve keeping ya rear wheels firmly on the ground or not?

It doesn't look very good either so no plus points to putting one on

well spoilers serve a purpose and was thinking of taking the gsi one off and sticking the saxo one straight on the boot.
vtr's and vts's have them.

merely cosmetic. most bodykits don't do anything.

I wouldn't do it unless you want to get slated by the rest of the CS crew, less is more & suttle styling is the way forward

bodykits do actually do somthing, even if you don't intend them to...
When i had a PSG Wide Arch kit, my SRi 16v wouldn't get much past 100 mph. It because of the shape of it, down-force is created. With the standard bumpers, it would reach 110 mph with more ease.

not really bothered what cs think, i was asking as the saxo spoiler on the boot might give more downforce than the gsi one i have or put them together for more down force as i have a stripped out rear and it will be very light and less contact between tyre and road
