Has anyone on here fitted STi winglets to the front bumper of their blobeyes as i've now got mine but i'm not sure whether they just clip into place or whether there is a special fitting kit required

any ideas? i want to get my front splitter on

 

Have a look see Mods

 

Excellent cheers for that,just one other question as its pouring down outside does the 05 Spec C have the STi front bumper which would mean a direct fit or would it be a WRX one as the boot/spoiler is definately from a WRX hence the standard irioning board spoiler.Just wondered if the bumpers would also be WRX ones

anyone know?

 

ok ive just had a look and it appears that the bumpers on Spec Cs are WRX ones as there are no fixing holes for the winglets/Aero pieces which is a complete pain in the a$$ i might just leave it as i dont want to start cutting the bumper

 

Easy job, just need confidence.

Cut the 2 front lugs off and line up the 3 lugs across the top.
I used a strip of masking tape along the groove to mark the position before drilling the slots out, just take your time but don't test fit them because once in they aren't ever coming out

 

how about i cut all the fixings off and get the grip fill out

seriously i have read the fitting guide as posted via a link earlier and it seems straightforward enough ill have a go tomorrow weather permitting

 

Something I was going to do before I sold up, Like Richie said,Just a bit of confidence needed. And Double check what your about to do....!

Good luck Fella... (Not that you'll need it)

 

Fitted them tonight had to cut the bumper in 3 places each side for the fixings to slot into but now its all on it looks good and isnt going anywhere

 

Fitted some not so long ago to my05 wrx got them of ht autos

Before


After

 

Exactly what I done with mine although I used some heavy duty adhesive from my dads work.

Looks the same as any other and took merely 20 mins all in.

i was worried when i did this LOL But it went well i just marked everything with a pencil

 

thats all i did,mark the 3 top fixings with a pencil and slice the slot with a stanley knife widen slightly everytime till i got a firm fit.It took me about an hour but i did take my time as i didnt want to gash the bumper

 

I had some winglets fitted to my blobeye last Jan, but now they seem to be coming away at the top. Should I just squirt some grip fill in there and press them together or do I need to take them off and start again?

 

If you can pull enough of it away from the bumper id be inclined to squirt some kind of bonding glue down there and glue it in place.That is assuming you never want to remove them as it will leave a horrible mess if you decide to take them off
