I wanna fit a spoiler to my corsa, and am either gonna buy a second hand spoiler or buy a new one from halfords or on the net. If I get a second hand 1 i will prob need to respray it so it mtaches the colour of my corsa, is this relatively easy to do?
How r they secured to the car - is it a job i can do myself or do I need to get a badyshop to do it?
cheers

What kind of spoiler are your purchasing?
If you want a decent job doing then get a bodyshop to do it, messing about with spray cans and fitting it wont be worth the hassle and you will end up with a bodge job. Plus it will be easier for the bodyshop to colour match the paint.

just a standard rear spoiler for a corsa B. i think halfords sell colour matched spoilers for 79 quid but apparently they dont look as good as the official irmsher one, but that is more than twice the price.

I know someone on here got a Gsi replica spoiler and the fittment was quite right, looked crap. I would go to the scrappy and try and get one, then get a bodyshop to fit/paint it.

Ive rung round a few local scrap yards but it seems corsa b spoilers are few and far between. i check the ads on here and corsaweb.co.uk but not had much luck. mite have to go for the halfords replica spoiler. N e one bought or knows some one that bought a halfords replica spoiler, if there n e good?
