differences between Euro and US-spec Kamei Mk2 spoiler?



ron, you seem to miss the point, on HIS perticular Car, its not
add-aftermarket-styling
the car was VW-issued that way (special RARE (as in yes REALLY factory RARE)
model)
so restoring it to its original stature, means finding that rare Kamei X1
front spoiler (original one will have vw part # on it (mine does)

=>Keep the bumpers stock.

=>Unless someone has a zero mileage 16v 2 Liter engine in trade.)
=>Go for the performance. (No, I never met Claudia.)
