Thanks for all the positive comments.

Liked the look of the STi rear underspoiler offered for the new 2015 car




so, given the similarity between the models decided to get one and see if it fitted

As supplied, currently only available AFAIK in the US and Australia:-








Bumper cover and beam off for test fit ....







..........to find that brackets foul the bodywork as arrowed.

Following some slight bending and panel beating, brackets clear of bodywork







After test fit with bumper beam back in place the mount brackets required some slight modification to fit










Bumper back on and test fit shows wing to be close to bottom edge of bumper.......




..........however as I have an HT Auto rear diffuser I wanted to use the two together, so made up some lowering brackets so that it would sit below it .........





Silver wing not to my liking or matching my theme so now satin black to match the rest of the bottomline kit





(with genuine white STi sticker )

 

looking a good end result

is the off centre decal set because you're intending to get an SIDC one on the left?

 

just ended up that way....... can't fill up all the space at once - the Scoobynet one also acts as a pass on the right - if you dare

 

 

Magnificant Car! I like every single bit of it

 

Lovely car, I like your choice to go for OEM STi parts rather than most others, it goes to show that you can have a delightful looking Impreza without the need of lots of aftermarket parts

Have you thought of a roof vane spoiler, such as the ones on the hawkeyes? I haven't seen it done before so may be a bit of overkill or not? The only thing I would add to the cosmetics would be a Spec-C roof flap; if you are into those things

A few updated pics of the current look.........

 

Nice wheels what are they

 

Awesome motor!

 

SSR GT-V01's 18x8.5J ET48

 

Lovely. I would lose the stickers on the back bumper or make them all same colour like dark grey would just fit in better with the look IMO

 

WOW! Do you have a link / price for the wheels? Will they fit the latest model?

 

Was after something different to the usual Rota/Inovite route and these gave a better ET "fit" for what I wanted.

They should do, the ET48 (OEM wheels ET55) fill the arches more on the MY11 model.

You need to be sitting down for this
I got mine via the Swss European dealer as the postage was far far cheaper than shipping in from the States or Japan direct.
They were also "out of stock" in Japan when I ordered, so had to wait.

The SSR GT range...................

The F01 forged version was out of my price bracket

 

What is that in English pounds

 

For 18x8.5 - CHF 518.52 per wheel = £342 (+VAT)
They are Flowformed so up there with the best

The Forged version are £611 each (+ VAT)

 

Since fitting them, I've never been happy about the way the rear Chargespeed bottom line pieces just "ended" without blending into anything, so have made a few changes since Trax.

As before..........





Now................





Have "upgraded" to a Liberal Auto full width diffuser and amazingly the underspoiler remains at the same height.


OPTICAL ILLUSION: Any difference in shape of the parts running under the exhausts is due to the photo angle and the various compound curves involved

Also did a DEPO LED rear light upgrade as well

Diffuser arrived as an FRP kit which need a certain amount of work to sort out the separate vanes on the rear bumper attached section.

It also need modding to accommodate the underspoiler mounts............




Diffuser images below show the VERY expensive Carbon finished version








Manage to get it all done for RallyDay............

 

Don, come on you have been so quite for sooooo long! Any update? Any new bling bling for Japfest?

 

A couple of small changes, nothing major

Forgemotorsport coolant hoses in black

Samco induction hose in black

 

At Modified Live -Time Attack Cadwell 25th April

 

Dom, it may be the shadows but do you still have your rear diffuser and STI rear splitter fitted their?

Also, what make was your old rear diffuser and did you sell it?

Cheers
Arron

 

Arron,

"Liberal Auto" full width rear diffuser currently off for repair and repaint. (A loose "bolted down" speed hump made contact with the underspoiler.
Should be back on for Japfest



The MY15 STi rear underspoiler now residing on Mr Ostle's (rob84) new car

 

Those speed bumps are a nightmare, I'd be tempted to contact the council and make a claim, I did years ago and they paid out pretty quickly!

Sorry I actually meant the old narrower diffuser before the full width, but now I'm on a pc I can see it was the HTautos one.

 

I still have it, albeit with a couple of holes for the rear underspoiler mounts

 

With or without diffuser it still looks awesom Don

 

One for the Album.............

Arriving Cadwell.

 

Lovely motor Don want parked far from you at cadwell

 

I know I'm late to the party here, but this is amazing and giving me lots of great ideas. Where can I get these items?

What a fantastic car. A real credit to you.

 

Thanks.
