Default Uk vs jdm newage front bumper

Ok so on my 03 jdm spec c motorsport version I have a bumper that doesn’t have winglets as standard I want to get a sti bumper that has them as standard though. I think visually the bumper with winglets as standard and combined with a splitter looks much better... also I managed to catch my bumper a few weeks back so seems a obvious time to do a swap

This is my current one albeit from when I first bought the car some years ago, is there anything different about it or is just basicly a wrx bumper with sti fog covers???





And this is is just a pic I picked up of eBay of the sort of thing I had in mind






I’m just wondering what my options are I mean are uk and jdm sti bumper all the same or are there differences


Also are widetrack and non widetrack front bumpers the same fitment.....

If anyone no’s of any bumpers for sale ideally in white 51e needs to be uncut
Can you let me no o

Only if yours was blue

That blue bumpers is as new freshly painted mattyb has it up for sale at £400

I was thinking bout buying it for mine rather than get mine re done as I’ve got a 20p size laquer peel on it but I only want to pay £200 without the fog covers which is wishful thinking

Well I haven’t seen to many 51e white bumpers fs that regularly don’t get me wrong they
Occasionally pop up but few and far between..

I may have to get a alternative colour and have it sprayed in which case it wouldn’t need to
Be immaculate as getting re done anyway so maybe get one a little cheeper than the blue one matty is selling above

Give me till tomorrow pal I’ll see if there’s a white sti one knocking about anywhere

I know of an aftermarket one in white think it’s chargespeed but I don’t have the pics

Widetrack non widetrack and uk or jdm sti bumpers are same

The bumpers are the same, the winglets are a seperate part that fits over the main bumper panel. So all you need to do is buy the bumper winglets, not a full bumper panel.
