I dunno yet. I think I do? It didn't mention anything about the primer/painting of the spoiler in the documentation.

Highly doubt it, since it looks rather platicky at the moment.

Well after a long long time and decisions, I have taken my spoiler to a bodyshop. it's being done now, apparently it should be done by tomorrow.

Went to

Hinton Rescue = Â£180
Crown Car = Â£120
Bath Panel Beating = Â£50!

I jus hope its going to turn out fine. I went for the obvious choice since it' was the cheapest inc. fitting and the guy ain't charging me VAT, which I thought was ultra cool. Didn't expect that.

Will get the result tomorrow - hopefully and some pics.
