Hawk wrx vs sti bodywork differences
What are the bodywork diffrences between a hawkeye sti and a hawkeye wrx.
So far i've spotted,

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.

yeah, there only small strips. i'd read there were differences on the rear bumper and arch but i couldn;t figure out what it was, i was expecting an extra inch of width or summit like that lol
