i have one that looks like a 2 piece one but is actually a 1 piece spoiler , its connects over the top of the brake light , or you can get one that goes all the way arround the brake light top and bottom .

the ones i have seen are two seperate pieces that fit upto the brake light, i cant make my mind up as to getting the two piece or the gti, not sure which i really like!!

I have/had a one piece spoiler that will allow you to fit it without it rubbing on the arial.

If I remember correctly, the GTi arial is set further forward to the non GTi?

Doubt there will be many GTi's in the breakers! If you find some keep us posted.

its looking like the two piece option, the rear needs something on now, have just taken the rear wiper assembly off and fitted a plastic grommet in the hole, weight saving and sleak looks! it really changes the rear end, looks wider, daft and unexplainable i know but it does!!!

You can buy a one peice spoiler from vw. Its not a GTI spoiler but it is a aftermarket part with a vw part number. Ive got one on my lup biggrin.gif style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />

Its about £90 if i remember from Wayside. It made by AB Design for vw.

You get the spoiler, brake light extension wire and fitting kit.

£86 with my trade discount (convinced the parts guy i worked in their bodyshop wink.gif style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> ) at my local dealer for the above spolier and there flimsy as hell and sooo not worth the money in my honest oppinion but they dont look so bad once on the car

Flimsy as hell my ass. Theres no movement at all on mine. £93 direct from Seat in Stoke.

Got them to spray and fit it as well. Came to £277 in total and thats at trade price seeing as we run an engine tuning business and have done a few of the cars that their employees use.

Main difference between the Lupo and the Arosa spoiler is that the Arosa one is a lot cheaper (£138 from VW), you dont have to take the brake light out as the spoiler goes across the top and the Arosa spoiler doesn't go as deep on the sides as the VW version.

Cos the VW one goes further down on the sides making it look chunkier wheras the Arosa one cuts short cos of the wrap around glass.

Have a look at Steve WP's green Lupo as he's got a gen VW one on his.

Edit: Here it is (hope Steve doesn't mind me posting them)
