Default Fitted 2006 Roof spoiler and diffuser
Added the Genuine 2006 Roof spoiler and the under diffuser to the car....
Fitting of the spoiler, not recommended for the faint of heart

I used to hate the roof spoiler but it is actually growing on me now .

How does it attach to the car?

Tony.

PS is that an MY05 with the MY06 rear oval badge on the boot?

It's actually an '03 STi
The spoilers look better in the flesh.....it is bolted to the car, after some CAREFUL work with a drill !!

I'm more interested in the diffuser

did you have to drill underneath...and was it about £90ish?

I can't see any way of getting around drilling into the car....maybe could bond it to the car, but i wouldn't feel comfortable with that.

I used a Cusco kit to fit the Diffuser....can be used on the Classics and New Age cars, no drilling

Looks VERY nice.I wasn't a huge fan of the rear window spoiler when I first saw it but it's growing on me too!!
Just out of interest, what price was the Cusco kit to mount the diffuser? (I like the idea of not having to drill anything! )
Also, it would be good to hear a breakdown on prices you've paid for the kit...

Cheers

Can you buy the Cusco kit in the UK or do you need to order it form the States.

Sorry chaps....not been keeping up with this thread

To fit the rear 2005 onwards arches, you just have to drill into the arch and clip in the trim. It comes pre-painted and with 3m tape.
It is best to fit the 05 bumper cover, otherwise it may look a bit odd (But is possible)
