oooooooooooooooooooohhh shiiiitt son. finally the pics are here. im so jealous youve moved up to play with the big v8 boys now. car looks mint i love that interior.
if worried about insurance you might want to hold off on removing the spoiler. i was talking to a guy from an insurance company who said i cant get insurance because i removed it. apparently because now its gone i only have 2 brake lights so iv removed a safety feature (one on the spoiler)
cars without spoilers have the brake light on the parcel shelf but if its a factory spoiler they have it on the spoiler instead.

not sure if that made sense but yeah if it did, something to keep in mind.

none the less.... sexxxxxxx on wheels there mate
