these probably show the front lip with rubber lip extension best.........










Just to add the STi front lip for the MY11 onwards is only available from Japan.................(or maybe US but price works out about the same)

Guys where are you getting all your my11 gear from or how are you searching it in the likes of eBay etc. Can't find much. Looking for various bits and bobs like FMIC, induction kits, front strut brace, lip spoilers and just random bits that look cool

Also on the likes of japan parts what's the model code for a 60 plate saloon so I know I'm getting the right gear

Any pointers welcome,

Was figuring out by the suspension tops & the gold on the master cylinder it was a race car but still cluttered under there considering the japs take pride in there work.

Gotta agree the body is awesome. Now were can I get that bonnet. Blank cheque waiting lol

No need to correct you Tony

A lot of items that could/can be fitted to the GRB are the same as our GVF except where the revised front end are concerned and the fact it doesn't have a hatch (adaptive model code C and D)

As above Japanparts is a good starting place and as the US has had a saloon version of the WRX as well there are a number items available from there (SPT etc)
http://www.sube.net/pdfs/2012wrxaccy.pdf

Subaru UK only for the grille sets and some interior/exterior items

Mark at HT Autos for various aero/trim parts

Guys it may just be me being paranoid of eBay and the dubious sellers and copied parts etc but has anyone bought from this seller, is listed as genuine yet they are £100 cheaper than from Subaru and on an individual bases most are about £25 cheaper

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2610317793...84.m1423.l2649

Anyone bought from them and confirm they are the real deal

Cheers

Give them a ring! I bought my genuine fog light kit from them and negotiated extra deal to save them eBay fees and PayPal fees. They are a Subaru dealer in Newcastle area. I saved atleast and extra £30-40

Ask for Michael!
