Frayz is probably your man, I know he ordered a couple of Spec C roof vents for the newage Impreza, not sure if they do the same style for the Classic, or are you after something bigger?

Classic is smaller and a different shape. Send Graham at Japanparts and email and he will quote you for the classic kit. I know he sells them too.

The trim clips im guessing theyre talking about are the cream coloured items that fit the inner vent trim to the inner vent frame. Shown here.

How is that the same as putting a Roof Flap on the top.

Mind you the roof flap gives a good 100 bhp ontop so well worth mod IMO



I just love the look of them i have spend far to much money on my car so far to just sell it and get a RA for a "vent" when i can have one on my car.

Thanks Frayz for the pictures

i will be needing that bit wont it? to finish it off?
