no function....only support to "Japanese Economics" ....and JapanParts, STI.

My RA fog vents are modified as I installed LH side inner fender HKS Oil Cooler.

Here are there the two shapes to realize vectorial file to send to plotter. Remember to give MANDATORY a 4/5 mms length to fog covers side, as you see with genuine pre-formed sticker that covers the join area on matte black.

Measures are in Metric. (Print A4 and verify no reduction print area is)

sorry, but i do not understand the complicated construction
of the Extension Covers !!??
they are sticked with ready to go 3M
So why is it not possible to just stick them on ?
Why is there a need of putting on the black 3m wrap film
before ????

They are just templates for installation and to have a better fit.

Mine template not. I build the templates for people won't throw money. You can obtain same results with wrapping (instead of genuine) following my directions above.
3M Matte black wrap film acts same appeal....

and i am confused on if it comes with just the small black extensions or does it come with new fog light bezels with mesh.... I have the limited fog light bezel, so I would assume it would still work for these if it just includes the outer extensions

When you order, you order and receive only dayliner extensions.
You can install them both with EU fog covers (and JDM or USDM with DRL) or without stock covers, i.g. the RA as mine (modified to vent LH side fender HKS Oil Cooler)
This is an example of a friend of mine that realized them (with my templates) for the EDM stock fog covers.
He built with hard paper as you see on bottom (Parmiggiano Package ) and 3M film. They are very similar......Parmiggiano was on Pasta ( ) ....and only Eur 5,00 and 10 minutes of work to wrap, against Yen 39.800,00 (with Euro custom duties).

YOU NEED DRL MANDATORY...





starting from this.....job.

Yea I still don't really know what the extension pieces are really for. But when I wash my car I do notice a lot of stone chips around that area. Aero?

I think Subaru / STI is starting to get a lot of design cues from Volkswagen / R-line both inside and out, if you know what I mean. Pretty good execution tho imo.

Just so you guys know the DRL extension doesn't really run together with limited fog light bezel.

It can fit but it wont align up properly like the foglight delete bezel. Ofcourse you can hear it up @ bend them a bit and stuff.

Every BRZ has the DRL's. If I read it correctly, the dayliner extension doesn't fit if you have fog lights. Even simpler:

Have fog lights? Dayliner won't fit.

No fog lights? Dayliner will fit.

Although, I think @DSOmegaX is going to be testing that theory whenever his set comes in. (I believe I read somewhere that he ordered a set)
