You'll have to do something about that bolt in the centre (seems to be distorting the shape abit) but it looks ok. I don't know what it would be worth.

I'm looking for a front spoiler for my GC wagon, But I'm looking for a less sculpted look. Just a flat fronted one the is mounted at like 45 degs to the car.

Just as a matter of interest what do you think about how it looks colta51?

I think for that to be on your car, it would have to be painted body colour (obviously), and then you'd have to fit some wide wheels and drop it a bit... Thoughts?

suspension = the good old "chop n block" :D :lol:

in all seriousness, this would look awesome with a set of flares
like on the gto's maybe?
then a set of minilites with some decent dish.

Paint them white or light silver, to go with your stripe up the side of your car.

1 1/2 inch drop should do it, I'd say.

But saying that mine is standard height, I can't lower mine, the tyres rub on all 4 corners now.

You'd have to lip your guards. so they clear the rims.

Have you seen 'Koenig Rewinds' they come in 14x7 15x 7 and 16x7? They are made for toyota AE86's so the stud pattern is right. They would look awesome on it.....
Here they are...

I got a quote on these for $1400 including tyres from Ozzy Tyres.......

I like the dish on those. But I think you'd have to lip or flare your guards....

you will probably need to flare your wheel arches to fit the 7's under it i have 13by 7's on my gband they were out the guards about 20mm and the rears will hit the shocks if you put lowering blocks in it. i moved the mount to the top of the saddle to clear mine but i have 2.5 in blocks in rear.
