yea going to smooth the spoiler in so thats y i had to wait to have the rear screen swapped before being able to put spoiler on cos i wont be able to get to rear screen after the spoiler is smoothed on!

prob wont be easiest thing to paint when on the car but will look alot beta smoothed in, prob leave the seam line at bottom of spoiler but smooth in the sides etc! not sure yet, gonna whip the boot off in a bit so i can work on that when i have spare mins and put car away in other shed!

side reps i have bought some leds, came last week so they are going in mirrors or summit not descided yet!

rear lights, got trailer lights going in rear window

thanx for all coments

what about building the rear lights into the c pillars, just use trailer lights in effectively a gauge mount style

might look better, just a thought

yea i thought about that i think leave it as it is now cos if i smooth it in it dont look like a civic spoiler, kind of want people to notice that its a civic spoiler on a corsa!

not sure tho, fancy getting another civic spoiler and putting it on jagcorsa and smoothing it all in tho
