Default Carbon

Hey,

Got some of the carbon bits fitted to the car.

So far have got the fog covers and the rear spolier, still trying to source a decent scoop.

The car is filthy as I use it daily but hopefully will get a chance for a wash soon then I can get some full size pics up.

All comments appreciated, the rear spoiler makes quite a bit difference to the rear of the car, feels more planted on the corners.

I've never been a fan of the wrx spoilers with risers, I reckon it would look a lot better without them.. just personal opinion, but it does look sweet in cf!!

Have you thought about getting a cf 3 piece grill, and a cf v ltd front spiltter? to finish off the front end. I was considering getting the grill set for our silver hawkeye.

Looking good.

I very nearly bought one of these for my car then decided I'd only use the top part so might as well stick with what I've got already. The carbon suits your car colour very well. That gap at the front of where it's attached to the boot would give me sleepless nights. Once you get that sorted it'll look way better.

Suppose you are never going to get a great fit with non OEM.

I guess I could lift it a bit at the back to close the gap, but then would probably have a gap at the back then lol

Not sure having a think about it whether the top part could be used on its own, would need to check the fixings again.

Choices!

If it were mine I'd get a sheet of self adhesive black neoprene around 4mm thick and stick it to the underside then trim it exact and then when you re fit it'll crush where the fit is good and close the gaps where any exist.

regards

Will have another look at it, I already sealed it at the back with some tape foam to close the gap there but will try again!
