Wheels look great on silver car. Nice spoiler too. I wanted that one originally, bit pricey though.

Scotty,

I was put off by the price of the spoiler at first, but I managed to haggle a deal with my dealer. Should have been £500 + painting + fitting + VAT! I managed to get the spoiler and the colour coding for £500 including the VAT!!

Maxy,

I got the wheel for £995 from a dealer, and they had only done 1200 miles. Haven't sold the MIMs yet, but two people are battling it out!

Cheers
Andy

Yes they are Subaru parts, and for reasonable money, and NOT the £128 + VAT that GGR quoted!!

I got them from Cheam Motors. I think they were £67-ish, with the SIDC 10% discount! They took 20-30 minutes to fit.

Have a look at

Niall,

Your welcome. Do you have a UK car or an WRX/STI? Remember to tell them, as the UK ones have the cutout on the drivers side for the ariel, while some/all (??) the Japanese cars don't!

Better safe than sorry and all that!

Andy

Yeap it's a bungalow, with tools, car cleaning stuff, and other crap that won't fit in the house, oh and the car as well.

Sorry about the sarcastic answer, it's actually my garage!!

BTW the other side is much the same, only the other way around, and there's no steering wheel that side!!!

If you live near enough, pop down to the Fleet meet on Sunday, and pick holes then (I know where they all are)!!!

Cheers
Andy

I've been in touch with upAuto but
unfortuntely the deflectors are out of stock at the mo.......however they have told me they will be getting more next week
Only thing is......they've said that these ones fit under the rubber seal and do not have any cutout on either side for the aerial...??
Are these different to yours then do ya reckon??

Niall,

The one's I have, supply 6 L-shaped brackets, 3 for each side. They need to be screwed into exsisting holes underneath the door seals. The wind deflector then mounts to the brackets, and get screwed in. The upper edge of the deflector has adhesive strip all the way along the top. This is then stuck to the bodywork of the car!

Yes they probably could be damaged easily!

I'll try and get some more pictures of the deflectors on Sunday. As soon as I have them I'll post them here.

Andy
