MY 03 STI Corner Splitters ?
I have the corner splitters for the STI 8, and would like to fit them to my MY 03 WRX, but, they have various clips & fasteners sticking out which would meen me drilling 3 holes & cutting 3 slots in each side of my front bumper.
This task is a little dawnting, and it would be a great help if I could see what the STI bumper looked like with the splitters removed, a closeup of the holes & slots would be great if anyone has one or could take one.
Or, ..... has anyone cut the clips off & stuck them on with some SUPER STICKY stuff
Any help or comments would be good,
Thanx,

jon17,
I got them from Midland Birmingham Subaru (but anyone should do !)
They were £52 each, & yes they come painted up.
If you don't have an STI, and you give them your chasis number, they will tell you that you can't fit them on a WRX.
I have fitted mine, and they look & fit perfect.
I drilled a series of holes in the crease in the bumper, then made them into slots with a craft knife & a file (to square them up & make them look neat).
There are also three "popit" type fasteners that would need holes drilling in the front of the bumper, but I didn't fancy doing that, and removed the clips from the back of the splitter.
I pressed the splitter clips into the slots I had made in the bumper, (they are a very tight fit and will not be coming off again !) then I used cable ties to fix the bottom of the splitter to the bumper, they worked fine & are well hidden behined the splitter.
All in all the job took me 4 Hrs to do, but it took me 3 Hrs for the first one & 1 Hr for the next, once I knew what I was doing.
I get my Fog covers in a few days & then the front will look complete
