Yup, it makes a difference.
Both fiveoclockhero and I feel the back end is better planted in the higher speed corners.
We both painted ourselves from Halfords rattle cans, £25 all in for the paint and laquer.

Does it fit nice and flush to the clam 'as it comes' or do you need to reshape the base a little to get it looking factory fit?Mine went on tonight, looks OK, just a shame I made such a pigs breakfast of the paint on the blade.
And has anyone measured the degree of diference compared to the angle on the lotus.
I think it looks great but Im worried about the extra drag and light front end at that angle.

No modding needed to make it fit, bolts straight on. No idea on angles of attack I am afraid as my ankle bracelet explodes if I go too near a Lotus so I cannot compare.
