Default CF Splitter

Quick question to all you styling guru's.

My friend up North has a Carbon Fibre company and has just started making parts for the Subaru. Now, he has made a splitter to fit the 01 on STI's but would this fit a standard 01 WRX too?

Cheers

the bugeyes i think are the same STi/WRX bumper but for the Blobeyes the bumpers are slightly different although you can fit an STi splitter to a WRX if you get the side aero parts (blobeye)
I'd be interested in a CF splitter for Blobeye STi though

Cool, hope so.

He's just made a start on Subaru parts and his price for mine (if it fits) is at least half the price than anywhere else. He did me a couple of things for my GT4 and it's good stuff. He does it as he enjoys it so yes makes a small profit but not into ripping people off.

I can ask if he's going to make one for the blob eye if you like?

I'm looking for a Blobeye (05) front splitter for WRX so if he makes a batch I'll be in for one?

I'll have a word with him and see what his plans are for the newer model. He's always up for GB's so can try and sort something out.

He's been a friend through several car clubs and is extremely busy so hard to get hold of sometimes

A quick update, the splitter on the link above is for the 03-05 model.

So, no good for mine anyway.

Hello Andy. They are on his plans of things to do but not sure when fella. May be a good idea to join up to his forum (it's free) and say I sent you over and just nag him. His names Ben and he's a decent lad

Got in touch with Ben today and he said he can make the splitters for other model scooby's as long as there is a group buy of at least 5. So those who are wanting these can organise that and I'll let you know how to contact him once you have at least 5.

Price shouldn't be far off the price for the one in the link above which is a steal of a price.
