BRZ STi Wing Gurney Flap

Searched and didn't see it.





Per Google Translate install and product description:
It is the material of rubber aero spoiler attached to the rear end of the car aero package. Conducted wind tunnel test vehicle at STI, increase downforce by rectifying the air subjected to surface wing without increasing the (CD) air resistance, this product was developed property ground of the drive wheels at high speeds improve.
※ drilling it is necessary for mounting the rear spoiler

This will require drilling into the existing trunk spoiler to install correctly.

How much additional insurance, customs, duties, and related costs need to pay, if direct import from Japan?

ps. I also interested in their front lip and side skirt.

Do you also buy them before? How much (total cost) for that?

Thank you.

Yeah it was about $159 shipped to my door. I have previous bought parts from japanparts.com, although not the STi pieces you mentioned, and they are super quick and reliable. I plan to pick up the front lip and side skirts when I have a nicer set of wheels to go with them.

Schveet!! I know me and Lanez are on the STi wagon. It's nice to see others have the same opinion.

I'm pretty torn here. I'm not fond of the existing wing and don't know if the flap will make me like it better.

From those shots I'm not really feeling it. It looks like garden trim from Home Depot.

Worth noting that some of the stuff shown on the STI site isn't actually available yet.

Springs don't ship till November, for example
