if you have a subie with a wing does water get in the trunk when it rains or you wash your car? i was wonding if it was the gasket or i need a wingless trunk. water pores in the screw holes. tell me what you think.

 

stock or aftermarket? my 00rs stock rear spoiler doesn't have any water leak... if aftermarket and install correctly i am sure you'll be fine...

 

the spoiler is stock and came from the factory

 

The one on the project sti (2006) doesn't leak. You may need to have it checked out.

 

i am wingless and have the same thing

but i swaped

 

yeh, I would definately have it checked. Maybe go buy some rubber, remove the wing, cut a piece of rubber to match the part of the wing that mates to the trunk, and almost gasket it.

It shouldn't leak from the factory.

 

There should be a rubber gasket to help keep the water out. Anyone have a part number for it?

 

ping roo for part#

 

It is not a big issue. Under the base part of the wing there are little flat rubber gaskets around every bolt hole and over time they harden and let water pass. All you need to do is either get some rubber gasket material and make your own thicker (just a little) gaskets or if you do not remove the wing at all you could probably just use some clear silicone around each hole and reset the wing. I had the same problem and this fixed it completely. FYI

 

only water in my trunk is in my i/c sprayer tank

on a series note, get it checked or it might rust and become noisy!
