It's hard to say if there is any significant change from it. The problem is my car is so dialed in that I can't attribute characteristics to one individual part. For one thing, I don't experience any increase in NVH, in fact the car feels smoother than ever. Overall, the handling in my car is just sharp and smooth; there's no shudder, no fanfare, no vibrations. It just turns on point and exactly in the way I want the car to

I think I know why STI has to change the tower bar setup with the latest car. After I installed the Bilstein dampers, it seems that the car's initial turn-in isn't as razor sharp anymore (very subtle, but it could also be my four new tires, I replaced them with the same model due to a nail too close to the sidewall). I think I'll need to buy a set of these V bars next month.

Kind of look like ducts too me.

They don't seem to be that functional... AFAIK there is no duct there (where the fog lights are) or where that black piece is. One could argue it's for aero, but I don't see how a black piece of plastic would do better than a painted bumper...

Agreed, $250 is ridiculous. I wonder how they install? Must have some 3M tape or something? How else would you mount those? Unless you literally peel and stick lol.

Unless there's a mounting bracket behind the fog light insert? I feel like you'd have to remove that to then insert the valence extensions. I have no problem with a little tape here and there, but for something like this? $250? Cmon STI... Don't be yankin' my chain

Yeah I was thinking it was the whole bit that goes where the foglight is since that looks open. Now I realized it's just the black plastic piece. No thanks.
