Default Anyone got this classic splitter

Hi,

After trying to source a STI v6 splitter and being quoted £270 from subaru I have found these on ebay

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3008517944...84.m1423.l2649

Has anyone bought a splitter from this seller? If so what is quality/fitment like?

I have emailed the seller but no reply yet.

I like these: http://www.htautos.co.uk/first_6.html#

Their P1 splitter is BLACK PU plastic, NOT glass fibre and so, when it chips, it chips black. it's also VERY lightweight compared with f/glass. I have one on mine.

Thanks, im not sure on P1 splitter, will it fit with my Zunsport grill in place?

I did look at the HT autos V LTD splitter for the classic but not seen one in the flesh to have a proper look at.

I'm unsure on fitment, but a phone call to Ht will soon tell you.

Correct, you're wrong.

That's a pre-facelift bumper.

Facelift bumper in the Egay ad;



Just to add, there were 2 facelifts, 1st one was bonnet, lights and grille, 97ish, second was bumper, crystal headlights and revised grille, 99/00.

Yes need it for a MY99/00. Cheapest I have been quoted for a genuine one is £266 all in with fitting kit.
Guy selling them on ebay says that his ones are Plastic replicas but direct fit same as OE suabru one and come with fitting kit. Tempted to take a punt on it.
