I have the Spec C titanium type on my Spec D, but they aint cheap for a tidy one. What's your budget, cheap ones are just tarts parts tbh ?

You guessed it I am a big tart
I was under the impression that they where more of a cosmetic mod than a performance mod
didn't really want to spend more than £50.00 on a second hand part.
Do you think yours stiffens the front end or is it all in the head

That's a shame because I do like the one in the photo. I do appreciate yours is a genuine one and your looking for a bit more but if you change your mind I would definitely have it.
PM me if your circumstances change thanks Gonzo

Mint ones like mine go for about £120 on ebay, ratty ones £75+

They do cost lots of hundreds of pounds new

Best off getting a new shiney one from scooby parts with black ends for about £50.

Cheers mate but I can only find the ones with the bloody pink ends on there seems to be loads available for the classics but not to much choice for the 2006 STI !

Yeah I was thinking the same
Just seems a little wrong to buy something new and attack it with a spray can especially with my skills of painting

Might bump this thread for a few days you never know someone might need a few £'s quickly and if still no luck I might take your advise and get a cheap one and paint it
