Hi All
I am thinking of bidding on a version 5 spoiler off of ebay, the spoiler is off a type R, I have an RB5 non WR with the medium size spoiler and want to upgrade to a more aggresive one, question -- will the above V5 spoiler fit the RB5 or will I need to drill new holes etc....

just wondering if the spoiler you are bidding on is the 1 i thought about
is it blue ? i asked m8y if its genuine and it isn't
i also changed my prodrive rear spoiler for a bigger 1 , i have the v6 replica
i got £250 for the prodrive 1 and the v6 cost me £175
if i was you i'd buy a brand new 1 , m8y told me he's after 160 for his , if,of course,it is the same 1 , , his car is actually v4 type r
here's what he said to my question
Hi Daz,
Found out that the spoiler was bought by the last owner, he believes he bought it from Scooby World or mania, he can’t remember which.
He remembers that he paid £324 for it painted.
I am only looking for approx £160 if I can get it!
Thanks.

ooops,as for fitting , you will use the same holes but my fitter did drill 2 more in the middle of the boot lid for added support

dcp
direct car parts
can't remember the exact price but there is a company on e-bay selling good ones
some don't have the 'extra' piece under the brake light
the genuine versions do and also some reps do
mine hasn't,that's why i want to change it

see what i mean about under the brake light
if you look at a proper 1 it has an extra bit
