whiteline replica skid plate

Hey guys I'm thinking of knocking out some skid plates if there's interest... it would be a replica of the whiteline for 02-07 wrx and sti. Should fit some foresters too. Do your fitment research.

Ill make 5-15pcs.
5pcs will cost $125 each
10pcs will cost $115 each
15pcs will cost $100 each

Local pickup only.

Interested, but I couldn't find a good pic of the whiteline skid plate. Do you have a pic of what the final version would look like?

If like the first one, with holes for oil change (don't really care about the louvers), then I'm in too.

This would be pretty sweet. I also was not able to find any good info on the Whiteline part. I will keep looking.

Interested with or without access hole.

I have a Gruppe-S header, so that would be the only clearance issue. I will have to dig around to make sure they would be compatible with each other.

I have some ideas on this if you're interested.... Can has my car for test fit when I come out to do the other work. We can build the jig together if you want?

I'd be interested in these for sure. Most of the ones I see are either garbage or just knock offs... I think you should just do your own design and own product... then no knock off.... just you. New ideas or it's not worth it.

Do it, Do it, Do it.

I would love to see one that extended all the way to the front bumper. Actually anything that covers more area would be great. I don't just want to protect things I want to decrease drag underneath the car.

Jamison and I have talked a bit about this and that's along the ideas of what I have in my brain.

My opinion... do it better than anyone else...

I have another fabrication project for him as well...

The holes for oil change are a bonus, I'd still buy one without it (I can always add them myself).

First thing I would do if I bought one without one... cut a hole. Fabricate a cover held on by 3 bolts. Weld nuts on the back so you don't have to do jack crap but run the bolts in the holes. LOL!

That way you don't have to take that isht off every oil changes. LOL!



Jamison could work year round on people's projects. LOL! I've got 3 for my subaru and 2 for my caddy in my brain right now. LOL!
