That looks really clean. What about a rear lip?

Okay that was basically what I was imagining/trying to describe. Thanks! This is exactly what I was looking for confirmation of

I sent you a PM but can you take some more pics of the cut or standing in front of the car? I really want to see how visible it is.

Love that lip, your car looks great. I am going to buy the Ebay one and cut it down as you have. I have enjoyed my All fit lip in the front but the car looks so much better with the solid lip.

I've purchased the Lip from ebay, http://www.ebay.com/itm/281577790490...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
I hope that the 12'-14' bumper will look as nice as yours, regardless I'll have to mod it a bit for fitment. I also like that pin stripe in the grill, might do that for myself.

Any chance we can get an update on how your lip is coming along, has it held up our have you had to fiddle with it anymore to make it work. I think it looks great, looks official.

Actually the lip turned out very well and the installation was easier than I anticipated. It's still in great shape as I am very careful parking now and I think it adds a cool look to the car.


If you want to see how it was installed I did a write up over at another forum:

I really like it and seems like a better solution then the dropping a grand on a fitted one. I'm still kinda taken on how much shipping is for the fitted 2015 lip, was quoted 600 bucks for shipping alone, I know I'm in Canada but damn.

Yeah I hear you, being Canadian myself I've had to shop around and modify things to keep my car to a reasonable budget. Hell I've wanted the sport mesh grill since I've owned the car but can't justify it with the exchange rate and good luck finding them in Canada.

Those look nice but remember our Imprezas are more narrow than the WRX so you would have to trim some out of the middle to get it to fit. Yes you can paint them and that one does look awesome but might be difficult to install with that gap in the front.

Some people have tried on the Bayson R lip on the 15-16 and fits pretty good.
It's right around $100 price range as well. No cutting required.


I have it on my 2013.


Here's a photo of it on the 15-16

Thank you! I'll be getting that for sure.
Now I don't need to buy a saw and some epoxy!
