The STi bootlid is made from steel whereas the Spec C one is aluminium. This applies to MY05 Spec C's not sure about earlier models.
[edit] this works out at approximately a third of the weight of the steel item

Have you tried Litchfield Imports ? I know they import Spec C's so they may be able to get hold of parts for them as well.

I'd also be interested in this - also how many holes do they come with
I want one with just the four holes for the WRX spoiler bolts ie with no locator grommets or hole for the stop light wiring..alumininum would be a big bonus at the right price !

If thats the case I can just get the 05 one

The Spec C Carbon Fibre spoiler option looks like it has a long single foot on each side which uses the 4 bolt holes and covers up the rest but I have an S202 spoiler which has 2 small feet on each side.

I'm sure the 03 sti and WRX have steel boots/Trunks, will try a fridge magnet on it tonight.
My Disneyland fridge magnet sticks, that's confirmed that.

Cheers - there's definately a fifth one tho where the cable for the stop light goes through - you can see it on the right. And if it's like the normal WRX there is 2 blue plastic grommets in holes which are revealed once the spoiler is off..
As it happens there are some pics in the gallery at the moment from a guy who has just fitted a DRM spoiler..
