i was just wondering, when you took your spoiler off what did you do to get it looking smooth again?

or just took it to a shop?

yeah i might even get the rear ford badge taken off and leave it off?

but i was talking about the spoiler? some people reckon it'll be cheaper to get a xt boot from the wrecks and have it sparyed? i dont see how it'll be cheaper.

but how much would you reckon for them to fill in them holes and have it mde smooth again?

also i got outbided for the xr badges, so f**k it, i'll wait lol

the panel beaters charged $40 to fill the holes and $200 to paint it but you might be ble to get a local panel beater to do you a deal, and it would be less if you can prep it yourself... even if you could get a boot for $150 it would cost at least 200 to prep and paint it..

i just took it to my local suspension bloke and if not your local bloke, he should be able to point you in the right direction... it handles like its on rails.. id do it again.. my mate just bought superlows and my car handles the same if not better.. so he got the reset to sit the same height as mine and he loves it
