I have a bug eye subaru WRX.

I hate the spoiler so im going to get the STI style one, My car is Mica red so I thought that I would go for black and Red.

I was thinking to have the spoiler sprayed black, along with the bonet scoop and front splitter, the side skirts are already black.

WHAT DO YOU THINK - I have had mixed responses from my mates but thought I would ask you scooby nuts out there if you think this is a thumbs up or a thumbs down....

If its a thumbs down - can someone recomend a good spray shop in suffolk, which could match the MICA Red to spray my spoiler.

I welcome your opinions and hope to hear from you soon - other suggestions are also welcome.... thanks

Dude get this spoiler


Im not sure about the Black and Red option.
Why not get the side skirts painted instead ?
Maybe a case of getting MS paint or photo shop and messing about before hand.

Instead of black for the spoiler, how about a carbon fibre job from scooby world
New Age Impreza (2000-2002) : Subaru Impreza STI8 Carbon Fibre STI Wing

and to match it a carbon bonnet from Seibon
Seibon Carbon Fiber Products: Hoods, Trunk Lids, Fenders, Lip Spoilers, Accessories...

and also a CF front splitter
Seibon Carbon Fiber Products: Hoods, Trunk Lids, Fenders, Lip Spoilers, Accessories...

Now that would look cool

I went for an STI replica from DR Motorsport. £280 sprayed and delivered.
The quality isn't bad at all, and it costs a lot less than other spoilers, plus it has the clear rather than red brakelight a lot of aftermarket ones have.

It is fibreglass though I think. It's very light and doesn't require any additional drilling of the bootlid - just fits into the original WRX holes.

I'm no mechanic and fitted it myself in a couple of hours no problem. Even stopped the leak in my boot which must have been from the old spoiler.
I do think you need a front splitter too if you get the STI rear spoiler. I do still like the original WRX one too but for now I'm preferring the look of mine with the new one on there.
