Question

Hi.

Can anyone tell me, is the extra bit on the sti8 bumper, hilighted in the picture, part of the actual bumper, or just an additional piece fitted to the standard 03wrx bumper?


Thanks, Rob.

Rob the STI03 bumper is different from the WRX03 one as it has some clips that hold the above highlighted part.
I fit it in my WRX03 with the use of 3M two part epoxy adhesive that holds it very tight in the bumper while I used some elastic glue in the edges in order to avoid air going under the plastic piece!
Believe me it works I have test it more than ten times at 260km/h!

Thumbs up

Rob,
The bits you have highlighted are part of the STi front bumper, but they do come off, I know as I have got a pair lying in the boot of my STi the now due to the fact I have had the WRC front splitter bumper section fitted, I have them in Black Mica if you are interested.
YHM.

Hi John (New to Scoob),

Do you have any photos of the WRC part you have fitted?
I would appreciate it if you could post them or e-mail them to me.

I would really like to do something along the lines of fitting a lower front lip / Spec C type lip, but haven't had much success yet in finding anything in this country yet. The good looking parts all seem to be available in Japan (not worth paying for the postage!!!!).

Cheers

Simon

Hi Megabusa,

Are you making any sort of front splitter / lowered lip as in the photo at the top?

If you are I may be very interested

Cheers

Simon
