to help you out ill do the STI skirt for 120 if only one and if theres 3 or more ill do them for 115 due to cost in air freight being less all landed in sydney

What design are we talking about? There is the front lip from STi that is $780 from STi.

But I'm guessing it can't be that one!
I am keen to get something for the front end but I also want to lower the car a bit. I was concerned about scraping if I lowered (?15mm) and added the lip I had seen.
There should be a simple thin, tough lip that would be visually enhancing as well as protecting the front of the car coming out of driveways for instance.

Hi OzSTI
i can get you a STI lip for 660 landed in SYD for your GTspec B which subaru dont currently stock ( your link to subaru is for the 04-05 GT's only)
the front skirt lip we are talking about is a rubber extension which is a strip of rubber about another 15mm lower that goes from one end to the other end of the STI lip

Sorry if I'm being dumb,...
So the 'rubber thing' as Cat puts it so eloquently, goes over the STi lip. You need the STi lip first. This front skirt lip is not an alternative to the STi lip?
Thanks for your patience!
Michael.

hey michael,
the skirt lip goes underneath the sti lip, sort of protects the lip from getting scraped but it will make the lip sit about another 15mm lower to the ground.
have a look at this link here for the skirt lip:

Thank you. Makes sense now.
I quite like this one from Liberal. Looks thinner and maybe less likely to scrape on a lowered car.

I have the rubber skirt lip attached to my STi front lip.
It stops the STi lip getting scratched and it makes the STi lip look alot more aggressive as it sits about 15mmlower.
