Very similar to mine, was supplied and fitted by dealer when new.
Looking for clear third brake light instead on the red.

Not an OEM Newage STi spoiler, may be a runout Limited Edition N/A sport spoiler (that car also came with Morette headlights).

Environman, that rear spoiler is an Ochiari item and not OEM

Cheers, now I know what make/model it is and looking to replace at some point for original STi spoiler, I have the receipt from Subaru when purchased? Weird!
Wonder if I can get bolt kit and clear brake light?
Some searching required.

here is your spoiler on the Scoobyworld website
There's a Black OEM STi spoiler on Scoobynet for £250, not a bad price as they retail new at £895. Will need spraying though.
