Default Hawk wrx vs sti bodywork differences

What are the bodywork diffrences between a hawkeye sti and a hawkeye wrx.

So far i've spotted,

fogs/fog covers
rear boot spoiler
rear roof spoiler
wheels


Is there anything else?

STI has a different rear bumper to allow the arch extensions to blend in, only slight but there nether the less, someone on here made up some filler pieces in the past and bonded to their wrx bumper, did a great job if I recall.
