I suspect it would / could be altered to fit any bumper..
I like it and think it looks good the difuser and has a worthwhile function but although this is my fun car I also use it from time to time for periods as my daily drive.. I am at the moment and I fill the boot with mapping related gear.. to have to either carry no spare or fit it somewhere else and have a flat boot floor won't work for me, at the moment anyway.

That's a very nice wheel/arch combo, looks well aggressive!
Would these arch's fit with the Subaru splash guards? I can see mud splashes up the car being a big problem, a set of flaps might be a good investment.

Whats the pcd on those wheels? the only ones I can find so far with that offset are 114 and I got a classic. Have you changed the hubs?? or my alternative would be spacers, but what thickness and what problems would I encounter with the different stress levels on wheel bearings etc???

You can get these wheels made to any spec width/offset, you just have to pay your money and wait....
Of course you are going to put extra stress and strain on the wheel bearings, but I would allow for a new full set of wheel bearings as 'running costs' at some point, and you'll be fine...
