Default Hawkeye owners, please help

Picking up my Hawkeye WRX next week...can't wait!!

Have already got some mods in mind, hopefully some of you guys can help me.

First of...
Could you please tell me what front splitter are on each of these cars and where I could get either of them from (not sure if they are the same):
A)

B)

Next...
I am definetly getting rid of the standard exhaust because I want to bring out the burble
My mate has an Afterburner Vortex with centre section on his 2002 Impreza which is loud... is this the loudest/best system to go for?
I was looking at the Scoobyclinic Full Stainless Steel Exhaust System for £395, anyone know if this is louder than the Afterburner? I WANT LOUD

Finally, where can I get the STi foglight covers? Am I right in assuming that once I have these on, the front end would be identical to an STi9?

Cheers.

Both lip spoilers are the same, ones prob from scott lowe for about a quarter of that of an oe one.

Exhaust, I've gone for Prodrive but Blitz Nur Spec R is a loud one and as loud as you get I think.

Fog Covers, got mine from ebay USA but main stealer can get for about £80 I think, and yes will be same front end as STI.

Very nice mate... I'm liking that combo... is the splitter fibreglass or plastic?
Will most likely go for that... you got any more pics of the lower front grill? maybe one dead-on straight...

Is it just me or does the splitter on the s204 look more chunkier/thicker?
maybe its just the angle of the pic

Just wondering, is there much difference in performance between the 2.0bugeye/blobeye and hawkeye with its 2.5 engine?

On paper, 0-60 is 6.2 for the Hawkeye wrx whereas bugeye/blobeye wrx is 5.7.
How true are these figures?

Anyone moved up from a bug/blob wrx to a hawkeye?
I've had the pleasure of driving my mates y-reg wrx... not yet been able to test drive the hawkeye (Travelling to Chesterfield on Monday to give it a go...even though I've already left a deposit on it )
He keeps saying that his car (standard) is faster than mine will be

Would have thought that acceleration would be quicker due to more low end torque from the new lump

View my scooby, lots of mods, vids etc to look at.

HT autos splitter is nice and bendy but I dare say the build quality is better in the scott lowe, revolution ones.

View my scooby, genuine STi lower front lip (no idea how much as came with the car), and full Milltek exhaust system. Sounds great but won't burble due to equal length headers (don't miss it though!)
