Default Changing Wing.... Help !

In September last year i managed to mangle the drivers side front wing with a mixture of dodgy reversing & catching my mudflap under the wheel.


Managed to get another P1 wing and set about changing it earlier on. I've managed to get the wing off but not without casualties




When removing the side sill, 2 of the bolts were just turning so had to be forced out


Also, one of the clips off the sill snapped


My question now is..... where can i get replacement's ?
Do i have to go direct to Subaru or are these available off the shelf from Halfords or somewhere like http://www.swanseafasteners.co.uk/ ???

Thanks

Drop an e-mail to Dave at DDM Performance. He's in the Trader Parts For Sale Section. Me and Taylor have had some real quality parts from him.

enquiries@ddmperformance.co.uk

He's breaking two Type R's at the moment.
