Bob

We have some very nice adjustable 22B spoilers available.

Let me know and I'll give you the details on them.

Can't say which is best but from what I've read on the BBS the most popular seem to be either TSL and DR Motorsport

http://www.drmotorsport.co.uk
http://www.tsl-motorsport.co.uk

or

http://www.performancesubaru.co.uk/

Which is the best? Comments please.

No STi6 rears are the same height as the 5's, the 6'es have an extra angled lip at along the top plane.

Both are massively big, I had one for 2 weeks, found it was too damn big for me though and sold it. Got the Prodrive WR one now

The replica's I've seen have been okish, not perfect though. IMHO not near the quality of the original ones, but then they are a fraction of the price, you pays your money you takes your choice I guess...

I've got the STI V one from DRMotorsport. V happy with finish and look of it , there is a slight gap along the top of the boot lid however between the boot and the bottom of the spoiler. It's not a problem for me as the water runs off better anyway!

Edited to say that according to DRMotorsport, the 6 stands higher than the 5. IMHO the 5 is better.

I have http.www.drmotorsport.co.uk. V5 Spoiler and is very good.
I agree there is a slight gap under neath but that can be sovled by drilling you boot and using the extra bolts that come with the spolier

I have a DRM STi5 spoiler too.
Had to drill a couple of holes (actually a mate did it for me cos I couldn't bear to do it !!) either side of the brake light to make the spoiler sit flush otherwise it sits slightly above the boot lid.
Quality is very good. My mate has an STi5 & while quality is not up there with his original spoiler - its very very good for the money it cost.
Overall very impressed indeed.

Cool


I think that replica's should be as good or better than OE. Our's is a shameless rip off of the original with just a slight change to the brake light for obvious legal reasons .. The advantage of producing machine pressed spoilers using a mould off an OE STi wing is that you get a fit like this........
