'scott lowe' doesnt do slightly different ones, although 'he' had (has) some genuine ones at a good price

 

I got mine from Brian Wilson - see my thread below sent on 4th July. It's an exact replica the only difference being the brake light very slightly. There are also other threads on here from other people about these spoilers. I had my car parked up at the dealers yesterday next to STI's and the spoiler really is pretty much identical.

I'll try to post some pics if i get a chance. Details of these are in my thread below.

Got mine from Brian Wilson as well, have had it for over a week now and haven't got anything to complain about

Excellent service on top of that, the spoiler was fitted during my lunch break at the car park!

Pics of the spoiler fitted to my car:

The problem is drilling new holes in the boot lid which im abit worried about.
Id be straght on scoobyworld to order one if i didnt have to drill the boot.

 

I fitted an original STi spoiler to my 05 WRX.
I also bought a replica from a German guy on Ebay - and it is a good copy - but the quality is not as good as the original so would need more prepping before spraying. The replica has red third brake lights - the original have clear (red when lit).
Otherwise they are nearly identical.
I still have the replica if anyone is interested in it.

You dont need to drill extra holes in the bootlid - the original 4 are perfectly adequate - as long as you use a sealant between the spolier and the bootlid.
The STi spoiler is much heavier than the original - so the bootlid does not stay up properly.
I remembered reading about this - and got the two metal bars that go inside the boot from the STI and fitted these instead of the original (thinner) bars.
Now the bootlid works properly!

I have the same problem with the standard torsion bars not being strong enough. Can I ask how much are the uprated bars cost you???

Hi Nick
I bought the spoiler secondhand from a breakers - I remembered to ask them for the bars and they sent them with the spoiler.
Cheers!
