So will the Prodrive wing thats on this car be offered for the regular WRX? Also, its not gonna hang off the edge like the WRC wing right? Anybody know how much its gonna be here?

There's a picture of the one available in Germany on my website: http://members.theglobe.com/a4avant/essen.html
I took the pictures when I was in Germany visiting my girlfriend. Look for the rear sedan shot.

Hey Newscooby, thanks, that's it. That is the one I want.
Any Vendors lurking who can source this for me (and maybe many others)?

This is the nice WRC spoiler. That Prodrive one is too square. It doesn't fit the design of the car.

I think that the old style WRC/V5/22B spoiler doesn't look good on the new Impreza. Doesn't fit right if you know what I mean.

Can we buy the WRC spoiler? How much?

The wing on the blue rally car is it a 22B
spoiler? If it is that is the one I want.
The Prodrive wing is nice but I llike this one better.

It does not appear to be a 22b spoiler. It looks as if it is set off and curled under. The side looks the same but not the middle.

IMHO, I'm not a big fan of the stock wing on the WRX sedan. Could you guys post other options for the sedan. Is a prodrive wing going to be available, like the one on the rally car?

There have been a couple of spoiler discussions in past weeks. I also am not a fan of the new wing. I like the look of the current RS Sedan winglet. I have seen pictures, from Germany best as I can tell, of a similar style on the New Age WRX. I have no idea where to get one. I'd post a photo, if I only knew how...

This is the PERFECT spoiler for the car! Seriously! Its not a freaking wing, and it PERFECTLY fixes that strange "lip" on the trunk!

Damn, this whole car is EXACTLY how I would make it!!!

I totally dig that spoiler... I'm not a big fan of large spoilers, but the only place I have seen that spoiler is on that German website. Anyone know where we could get the Spoiler in America? Please post...

Thx

Now that's a spoiler. Not too big, not overly flashy, but still fills that emptiness left over the trunk when there isn't one.

Yeah, I really like that german spoiler, it's waaayyy better than that dinner plate from s.o.a.
Somebody pllleeaassee tell us where to source it!

I think that is a great spoiler, any details on who makes it?

As I sit at work and run through what I would order then place on it afterwards I keep coming to the question of the spoiler. I don't like the stock one... and most aftermarkets ones don't appeal to me. If anyone knows who makes this particular wing and/or of similar wings I would like to know more about them.

That german spoiler is the best one yet, much better than that dinner plate S.O.A is offering. Does anybody know how to source one?

An improvement to the stock spoiler is the set of pedestal extensions (carbon fiber) from Zero sports. You can see them on the iSR web site.

Since I took the picture, I'll contribute. If you want that spoiler, talk to Glenn Wallace or one of the UK guys. Maybe you can get a group buy going. I can also talk to my g/f about buying a bunch and bringing them over when she visits in March or summer.

Beyond that, your on your own.

That is the spoiler that will live on my car. Perfect! http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/biggrin.gif

Damn, you guys know my disdain for spoilers, but that "German" one is nice, actually it's perfect. Newscooby, I'd be interested if your GF could wrangle up one...a silver one of course.

If she's gonna do that, keep me in mind. blwb@mindspring.com.

I put in a call to the Southeast Rep and he is going to try to get that spoiler for us or at least see how we can get it. I'll post again when I have more info.

Anything new on that spoiler?
Mine unfortunately is coming spoiler-less
and I wouldnt mind the one on that pic. =)

That's the only spoiler I've seen that I would put on my car. If anyone finds a source, I want one.

okay did a little search and this is what I found out. The spoiler is part of a limited edition factory body kit that is only given to a few dealers in germany the body kit is called the MIT tuning kit. Here is the translated page where I got the info.

Ouch, I hate to see the words limited when I don't own one. LOL. <sigh> Hopefully they will make a good aftermarket replica soon or are those things patented?

I love that German spoiler. Hopefully it will still be kicking around when I get my car.

The pic of the rear wing posted by Kostamojen on the German-spec (new-age) blue WRX looks very much like the standard Subaru wing that was fitted to the old-style (pre-WRX) European Impreza turbos. My old UK Impreza turbo (circa 1995) had one like that, minus the stop light.

Must be a sign of old age & the onset of senility.....

As my wife was reversing our '99 2.5 Legacy GT out of the drive last night, it suddenly struck me that the boot spoiler is exactly the same design as the one on the German-spec WRX...not sure whether the Legacy spoiler would fit the Impreza ?

I want one too...put me down for a group buy if it comes up!

newscooby

I having my g/f ask a dealer about these wings. If I find anything out, I'll start another thread.

Who SERIOUSLY wants one??

Hey there, I'm VERY interested in that "German" spoiler. I was thinking about finding the WRC wing but after seeing the picture posted above I would MUCH rather have this spoiler than the wing.

If a group buy starts up for this German WRX spoiler count me in.
