im considering removing the saxo spoiler actually lol... engine is running excellent, way better than before. didnt have any majour problems with it when putting it back together apart from water leaking from the thurmostat housing so i took 1 off one of the heads up the garage and tryed that and it worked fine

im not a fan of the steiny (the ridge in the middle looks odd) so id say the gsi ones would look better and would suit the front bumper better
