typeR first appeared in 96 as WRX typeR STi (ver3)

then in ver4, there was WRX typeR v-limited, WRC typeR STi, WRX typeR STi v-limited.

in ver5, there was typeR STi and typeR STYi v-limited

in ver6, there was typeR STi and typeR STi v-limited.

so there was total of 9 typeR.
however there was no typeR specific bumper, typeR simply means coupe version of typeRA and front bumper was exactly same as typeRA.

So typeR STi ver4's bumper is same as typeRA STi ver4, which is same as STi ver4.
TypeR STi ver5's bumper is same as typeRA STi ver5's , which is same as WRX STi ver5's and therfore 1999 US 2.5RS's


Impreza WRX typeR vlimited
this one is not STi but it is typeR, so same bumper as WRX or WRX typeRA (the rear wing is aftermarket)


now this one is regular WRX STi ver4, its same bumper as regular WRX but its got STi 3 piece lip spoiler. This set up is same as typeR STi ver4

 

Looks good!

 

Definately... not much diffrent from the stock though

 

Okay... looks like I learned something today... sorry I doubted you!

 

i could have sworn that the Type R bumper was the one in this photo http://forums.nasioc.com/gallery/22b_meet.htm . Hmm..... maybe i should ask for the Front bumper of a 22B

 

ya, only 22B's have that bumper. good luck on finding that!

 

aww........crap

 

not only the 22B have this bumper. you can get the same style bumper from STi that fits the non widebody GC/GF as a upgrade parts. STi parts.

don't worry, this bumper does exsist.

hope this helps,
Phillip
