    was about to say the same thing haha, been considering that or a HBD lip spoiler for the back to replace the standard spoiler

    lol too true mate

    Also , forgot to mention, i have ordered some extractors for the old girl and ditching the **** standard headers as they arent free flowing enough.
    Its lacking numbers in the 'cyl-air' department, reading somewhere around 600 and should be 700, so the new extractors should free up more flow and increase the torque band a bit im hoping and maybe a couple more kw's if im lucky

    i do like the look of the hbd lip though.. hmm decisions decisions..

    2.5" ones to suit my cat back, 1.6mm thick custom made and heatproofed/coated with heat proof paint

    Would like to ceramic coat but its really expensive and idk if i cbf with going that far especially since its just a v6 lol and the colour they are should look nice in the bay.

    When i get em i may even paint them white just for something a bit different other than the traditional pacemaker blue or satin black.
    If my car had a fully worked v8 id get em done like the ones on COPLZR's car

    looking at that pic... that senator spoiler is pretty damn sexy.... really growing on me

    Edit: and just realised it has the 3rd brake light! so wouldnt have to worry about f***ing around with wiring up a 3rd brake light in the rear window

    That's half the reason I suggested it;)

    And yea fair call I guess.. I mainly said the ceramic for heat issues.

    I put a senator lip on my Ss. Looks great IMO. Fits straight into your existing spoiler holes as well. I'm pretty sure the hbd lip just sticks on the edge. Doesn't exactly fill me with confidence lol.

    It would DEFINATELY add a touch of class and remove the comments from soccer mums who say "ooh it's sporty, it has the same spoiler as my executive!"

    Looks real nice in white. Always had a soft spot for the VY S/SS front end.
