£45 including postage. From reading the listing i think you can pay an extra £25 to have it painted to your specific paint code.

So all in - £70 delivered and painted - not bad!!!

Any chance of a wee pic rapport25?

Does it fit well? The ebay listing seems to show self adhesive strips on the bottom of the spoiler - are they ok?

I'm asking a lot of questions as i'm comsidering buying one.

Cheers

I think i paid around £40 last year but it was not painted. Cant really see how they can offer a painting service as you need to bend it to fit. The back of a 406 has a curve to it. I keyed the area with some rough paper and cleaned with some acetone. Or white spirit would be just as good. Stuck it down with the strips attached to it which are 3m. Then taped off surrounding area and sprayed body colour also my pug has no black inserts either all colour coded and looks far better and brings the 406 bang upto date. Will try and attach pics when the weather improves rappy 8) Typical rain and a bank holiday :(
