You mean the side skirts?
If so, yeah, they should fit IIRC.

G, it will fit. . . . you have to make so minor modifications to it though.

I use to have a wrx; which is the one you see below; and my brother and I added the splitters to it.



The sti splitter has some clips that normally clip into the sti bumper; the wrx bumper doesn't have holes for the clips to go in. There are two things you can do. modify the bumper so the splitters will clip on; or modify the splitter and use double stick tape. Just my 2 cen'ts.

I just did this to my 04 2.5 wagon and it looks great. I trimmed the splitters and used some 3M molding tape with a couple of small screws on the under side of the bumper.
I needed the screws since the STI bumper is very different from the 2.5 wagon, most of the mounting holes did not line up.

If I get some time I will take a couple of photos and post them with some instructions.

I Had Those On My Wrx Wagon And They Fit Poorly And That Was The Best They Could Fit. You Really Need The Sedan Bumper Cover To Do It Right, It Fits Right On And It Will Be Way Less Hassle And A Cleaner Fit. Do It N Get The Sedan Fenders Too It Looks So Hard!

Take your time and measure twice before you do drill your holes and things will look perfect. You have to drill new holes on the bottom of the splitter and bumper but its not hard at all. Youll be cutting off the attachment pieces on the inside of the splitters because sti bumpers have predrilled holes on them, and you will be using double sided tape on the inside of the splitter to hold that part to the bumper. The bottom will be bolted to the bottom of the bumper. It looks good if you do it right fitment is not bad at all.

Hey Shagon,

What front lip do you have?

It looks great with the splitters. Nice work

thanks hayden .... its actually a subydude.com lip. came with all hardware and was actually pretty simple install. middle 3 bolts bolted up perfectly and then from there it was simply drillling a few new holes along the sides. took maybe 30 mins... and some of that time was jacking up the front end to get to the bottom of the bumper.
