Lok, those rear sensors look better than the ones I have. Yours sits more flush.


Hey Clarence, I spent some time searching for parking sensors that have recessed sensor heads to try and achieve that OEM/factory look. In the end, I found the SMART PARK brand designed by Oz company called ZORG Industries in Victoria. I think the person who came up with that company name must of really liked "The Fifth Element".

Ohhh tru, same here. I just got a STI lip off anfs too. They look awesome i recon. It should be an interesting challenge installing these. apparently they have to be screwed on as well as stuck on.

Hey Dan, it's been a while since I've looked under the N/A or GT sedan, but the shape of the bottom section of your front bumper is slightly different to the 3.0 models and hence why there is a different STi lip to suit each one. My lip is attached by way of unclipping about 4 or 6 of the existing plastic scrivets underneath the front bumper that holds the plastic splash tray in place and then attaching the lip, and re-clipping these scrivets through the pre-drilled holes in the lip and through the holes that line up with the bumper and splash tray. Then it's a matter of using the supplied self tapping screws and marking out equal distance along the front & corner underside of the lip to drill holes and screw them it to hold the lip firmly. The hardest part of the job is raising the front of the car for easier access to drill the holes for the screws.

soz man i misunderstood, i should have said that all ya needed now was a boot lid spoiler. I always get the Lip spoiler and the boot lid spoiler mixed up. As much as id love to get a lip spoiler id be too worried about ripping it off in my driveway every 5 mins. Yours looks sweet btw!!

So excited coz i get my Sti Bootlid spoiler 2moz!!

Who was it that was after an STi front lip for a pre-facelift 3.0R-B? I may have one for sale, with the lip protector. Very good condition. The lip protector helps to make the lip chunkier, and also protects it.
It'll be for sale if it doesn't fit my Spec.B front bar :wink:
