Should the Wide Track STi JDM 2005 model have a rubber lip gasket protector around the rear wheel arches ?

My old 2003 Sti had those on the rear as I lost one and had to replace it but I noticed my WT model does not have any ?

Could they have fell off ? or is this model without the lip protector's ?


Many Thanks

No, they don't have a protector lip because they have the wide arch extensions instead. If your car doesn't have the rear arch extensions then it's probably not a wide arch.

Just for clarification,

JDM models do not have the rubber wheel arch protection listed on the JDM database (or at least I can't find them) for either narrow or wide track.





UK/European/USA models have speciffic items for narrow track (same both sides- Protector-rear quarter, arch, 91016FE031), and wide track (Protector-rear arch, right, 91016FE080;Protector-rear arch, left, 91016FE090) plus the extensions.

Mines is definitely a WT model I was just unsure if the rubber protectors were fitted to this model thanks for the reply's

Don Clark

Just depends if it's JDM or UK

Hi Don , Mines is a JDM model

Are they listed for the UK model ? IE could i fit them to mines to protect the arch lip ?

Don Clark

As we know and thus no rubber protectors fitted.

Thanks Don a wealth of information

I always thought they were a good idea on previous models to stop stone chips from getting to the arch lip.

Nothing to stop you buying and fitting. Part numbers listed above.
