I added a TR6 spoiler from TRF to the front of my Stag using a Threaded Insert 
Riveter.  Quite easy and the fit is excelent.  The previous owner added a 
pusher fan but unlike most of them it has no cowling.  I also have an oil 
cooler.  Now my gauge just sits at about 2/3rds all the time.  Previously it 
often was just touching the red.

I have made no motor changes nor done any radiator work.

The chin spoiler is hardly noticable as it sits so far under the bumper and is 
flat black.
