Default Bumper problems....

I have a 1995 wrx. The front bumpers on these pre facelift cars look ****. What are my options. Are there splitters you can buy or do I have to get a while new bumber from a face lift model???

Depends what you want, how far you want to go?

Have a look at some front end shots of cars from 97/8, and 99 on, then decide what you want.
We can then tell you what parts you WILl need, and what you might want to put with it.

Just something from the v3v4 sti's the front is a lot lower than on mine. I want to install a fmic but there's no point atm if I'm just going to change the bumper

OK. Standard bumper will be much the same, STi, P1, Type R etc all have splitters.

Genuine is best, but good luck finding one.......

HT Autos make good copies from injected PU in black, very light and when chipped don't show white.

They don't sell bumpers, just splitters.
there is no such thing as a bumper, or splitter having space for an FMIC, not even OE ones, since no Scoob was ever built with one at the factory.

You can cut, or have cut, any bumper to get one fitted.

But can I ask WHY you are going FMIC? You need a remap and they aren't relevant except above 350bhp.
