Default Side skirt clips

Hi, on my Impreza i have just bought, the side skirt was loose, so i removed it today to investigate as to why, and discovered that the clips that hold it on were broken.
Somebody must of had it removed bofore for some reason and not bothered puting new clips back on

Where can i buy these new from, i need 7 in total
Its a WRX STi 5 Type R btw

Cheers

If you can get a UK chassis number a dealer can supply these for you, unless its a friendly dealer and they will source the clips without a chassis number.

Got mine, ordered over the phone, as my local dealer is 40 miles away.

IIRC, they were pennies each. Pretty good for subaru

I didn't need a chassis number either.

Yep, so long as you stick to the same model year.

Thumbs up

My lot came from Chandlers at Lincoln, which no longer exists.

Try Monty's at Sheffield, he's sent me stuff next day, or two days if he has to order it, post free.
