Default WRX with front lip spoiler?

Hi,
Does anyone have a pic of a WRX (preferably 2006/07) with a front lip spoiler (scott lowe one or similar) that they could post.
My car is a WRX wagon on standard suspension and was wondering if it will look a bit strange on a non-lowered car.

Thanks,

Will an STi lip fit a wagon as they tend to slightly narrower then saloon cars.
Then again I'm talking about blobeye cars.

Presuming you have a hawkeye being an MY06/07.

Front lip won't look strange at all on a standard car and really finishes off the front end of any newage.

Give the lads at Revolution a bell to see what they can offer

hi mate its a REVOLUTION STi V-LTD Style Front Splitters, got my one on a group buy at a very good Price, its very easy to fit and very good quality give them a call and they will sort you out, I have been very impressed with them and their products,

I also went for the lower mesh looks much better and protects the car…

Richiewong, what make is your lip spoiler? Your car is gorgeous!
EDIT: i should read your car spec better next time!

F1 CJE UK, the lower mesh grill looks nice, is it same/similar pattern to the top(OE) one?

I was surprised too when i found out that there is no mesh at the bottom! Looks a bit empty and exposes the radiator to stones etc.

yep subaru, Tend to make a good car that needs a few things to make it great, probably the reason for it being so highly modified, best example is the difference just adding Prodrive springs made to the car. all down to cost cutting

Hi Colin,

Have you actually fitted it/seen it fitted to a 2007 WRX wagon before? You mentioned in the other thread that it fits but is this an assumption or have you actually tried it?
The only reason I am asking is because the original lip spoiler from subaru states it is only for 4-door cars.
Do you do two different variants? (one for the 4-door, one for the wagon?)

I have had similar issue with the prodrive mudflaps I bought, they have changed the wheel arch of the 07 wagon hence these won't fit (they do fit a 2004 wagon though!)
That's why I wouldn't be surprised if the bumper of the wagon is different to the 4-door.

Thanks

Hi

We supplied our splitter on a 07 WRX Wagon which was featured in either jap performance or Banzai a couple of months ago
