Sti Winglet Fitting

[buffalo]

ok, finally got my HT Auto's winglets sprayed along with a few other bits. Was looking at fitting them tomorrow, with the idea of just using self tapers. however after looking at them they seems to have several big holes. so my question is, how do i fit these. is there a subaru fitting kit with clips or something for these holes?

How have you guys fitted them, or did you all just do it right and buy an STI lol.

Also fitted a vortex generator but i am petrified its going to fly off at any second lol. used 3m double sided tape by it seemed dead flimsy though i did cover every bit of it? how have you guys fitted yours. would some sort of silicone be a better bet, i am kinda leaning towards that way but dnt want to wreck the paint underneath if its ever got to come off?

Do a scoobynet search, there is a fitting guide somewhere. But basically you have to cut slots in your bumpers to fit the clips. I used genuine Subaru ones which come painted with the decals etc. I got mine from the states but they are probably cheaper evan from the UK unles you painted the HT Autos ones yourself. Part numbers are

STI Fog Lamp Covers 57731FE300TG (TG code for Silver) Price £34.17 plus vat

STI Fog Lamp Covers 57731FE310TG Price £34.17 plus vat

Aero Trims LH 57742FE010TG Price £57.72 plus vat

Aero Trims RH 57742FE000TG Price £57.72 plus vat

Bolts X6 901000186 Price 0.25

M6 captive nuts X6 901000186 Price 0.25

These prices are from about 18 months ago.

Hope this helps

yeah i think ive seen it, these ones dont have the clips at the top so i dnt have to cut the slots. i was just more concerned about attaching the lower bit of the air dam to the bumper. so it will be bolts n captive nuts i need?

cheers for the sharp reply

I fitted the Subaru ones with the clips at the top to my blobeye wagon, which was a wee bit more fannying aboot because the bumper is a slightly different size than the saloon, but the end result was worth it.

The bolts and nuts listed worked fine for me at the bottom.
