Those are the only two I have from the guy who rolled the dice and decided to experiment. Once it comes and I install it, Ill be sure to take plenty of photos.

Check out the fitment:
Cool of you to try it out first. Also in for more pics.

Looks like it would fit sport bumper as well, since it's more boxy it might just fill the corners out a bit more

That splitter looks fantastic!
I would love to see someone with a sport bumper pull the trigger. I would for sure pick one of these up. I like it miles better than the official, tack on lip.

I have one sitting at my house now, it actually looks to be a bit long on both sides, here are some pics i took last night. I know, crummy dark pictures but it was late and I wanted to do a test fit. The lip is actually in great condition etc, just scratching my head trying to figure out how to make this bad boy work.

I just bit the bullet and ordered the wrx lip/splitter for my sport bumper. Should have it in a week from tomorrow. I'll let everyone know how it goes with fitment.

That was brave. $70 isn't a big bullet, but you still bit it, so props.

Depends on the wheel fitment as well right? If you got a it of camber and wide wheels/spacers, might be spot on. The pic I have for reference, the guy has about the same front camber as me. Hoping for the best lol.

I did the pay after delivery method so I have a couple of days to play with the fitment and not feel the money missing from my account. Hopefully it all works out though.

I installed the Mitshimoto LED fog light on the driver's side today. Saving the passenger side for another time.

However, I'm going back to chrome fog rings, so for the near future I have one in gloss black, and one in chrome. Kind of funny when you look at it.

Your rowdy G got into a fight and got a black eye.

Yeah, it does look odd. I should take some pics of the weirdness.

The new fogs are nice enough, but not so dramatically different than the OEM fogs, because I've got a film of ORACAL window tint in Amber over each. When off, it looks better than the old ones, but that's because it's 4-year old tint with all kinds of wear and nicks in it. When lit... it's less amber than otherwise, kind of half-way between amber and yellow, but leaning amber.

Again... meh. It's nice enough. More of a refresh than a mod.

have to park the car outside until I get the garage door opener fixed....geez. I ordered parts for it - just need the plastic drive and worm gear that sits inside the box. Youtube comes in handy!...saved me from spending a couple hundred on a new opener.
