Default Pic request - Classic Front Splitters

Thinking about changing the front end of the car - can't decide which splitter would look best on a DBM classic though - any ideas?

Do those fog lamp covers go straight on or did you have to mess around with them to get them to fit.

Straight in m8 as K9VYN said They use three fixing points which are already in the facelift bumper. Couldn't have been made any easier for me!

Some cracking motors! Think I'll have to get one of those Sti 6 rear spoilers for mine!! ( Like K9VYN's. Think it's an Sti 6?? ) This BBS just makes you spend so much money

Good luck with your search

Steve.

Steve,

Mines actually a version 5 - the 6 is slightly taller (raised lip), but nice never the less!

K9VYN does use Scoobyclinic and can recommend them.
Mines in at the moment for cosmetic damage great service, prices etc etc.

Also had the Sti Covers for MY00......however 3 weeks ago one actually fell out and I ran over it and broke the brackets.
There are some new ones now for the updated classic bumper which have a screw in which obviously stop them from coming loose, will be going for these ones next.

Ray

There are quite a few on ebay which seem to to going for around £30 some are buy-it-now £39. They are exactly like richiewong.

Bascially mine were exactly the same as richie's minus the screw fixing.

Ashley

PS Ray you had any joy with them prodrive spoilers yet?

P1 is the best looking overall in my opinion but i'd still recommend the STi 6 unless you can find a genuine Subaru P1 splitter. The fit from the P1 replica i got off eBay is less than desireable, i'll probably move to a 'safer' STi 6 the next time the car goes for some paint.

SC got my genuine 6 splitter for approx £120 b4 paint. its flexible - avoid fibreglass as its likely to crack if you catch it!

I think the STI6 incarnation is in the lead at the mo...

all very nice though. P1 looks fantastic in white but a bit OTT for a DBM car IMHO.

Here's (imo) the only decent alternative to the Sti6 & p1 splitters for the 99/00 front bumper....

Different companies call it by different names for example TSL call it the 'Wrc one piece front splitter' & Revolution call it the 'P1 type splitter'
