Can anyone tell me if the fibreglass roof spoilers are actually any good?? The SEAT part is silly money. Thank you.

Geraint the honest answer is I do not know as my car came with one.

However these items are mainly for looks not function so as long as they can be fitted on the car then what is there to worry about.

There was a thread on here recently where somebody said they regretted buying one because it did not make the right noise when you close the boot, i would ask how often you do that vs the cost saving.

You should also see how much it is going to be to prepare and paint the spoiler vs the SEAT Part which I presume comes painted.
And check with your insurance co as this will count as a modification.

The seat part can be had for £195 through the forum sponsers on here and will require next to zero prep work at a sprayers

you may find the fibreglass will need hours of labour to get it to fit your car properly.

a lot of bodyshop places will moan and twine and maybe even refuse to fit it as they cannot guarantee the quality

I have one and it looks good and serves that purpose but the quality isn’t as good as oem. It almost sounds hollow but unfortunately for me hindsight’s a wonderful thing

Hag, would you of gone oem?

Depends really, maybe as it’s a better product but mine looks lovely, like I said just sounds a bit hollow when you go over a bump. Also I live in Yorkshire so I’m tight.

Does look good. I have seen some on ebay for 70 quid but unsure. I can prep, prime and paint so that doesn't bother me

That’s what I got from EBay about £70 then had a Bodyshop paint and fit and fit my TRC front splitter

This is cheap and says it comes primed.
