The only thing you need to adapt them is the 17+ OEM spoiler.

Are the mount holes in the same location as the previous model years?

from what ive seen on some other threads, no, the mounting holes are different

for example, putting lip spoilers/duckbill spoilers on the 2017 will show exposed mounting holes if not filled or covered

The internal pieces have been printed and painted Drambeenie green!

I have one pair of matte black at preorder price for anyone interested. PM me.

Same, but I also really appreciate @Drambeenie’s weekly email updates though. Not sure that every vendor would be as forthcoming.

Everything up till now has been reasonable.

hopefully not too much longer!

Hi guys, totally apologize that the risers got delayed for paint and am happy to be as transparent as possible! I'm ready to ship them as soon as the updated paint is sprayed onto the risers.

As you can see below, the paint didn't match. The top piece is actually Crystal White Pearl, the other looks like Crystal Tan Pearl hah It looks even worse in person.

So, in an effort to get the color to match better, I paid two separate local paint shops to paint swatches for me. Then I went to a Subaru dealership to compare the swatches on the cars. See below. The smaller swatches look much more accurate and were sent to the factory in China. They'll arrive early next week. From then my supplier said it'll take 10 days to update the paint then paint em. Then as soon as they arrive I can package and send them out.

Just found this, been looking for spoiler options for my BRZ lately and wanted something that would use the OE bolt holes. Anyone have a picture of how this looks in the rear view mirror?

I'll probably be getting the crystal white pearl, out to California here. Any idea on the lead time for this if I order now?

As I recall, the 2017 trunk lid had to be reinforced to accommodate this spoiler producing more downforce compared to previous model years (in addition to the holes being located differently as has been mentioned already). You'd probably need to get a 2017 trunk complete with spoiler.

I’m pretty sure there’s a photo of that in the thread somewhere can’t find the photo right this minute.

2 weeks lead time but you’d need to order ASAP as my supplier is almost finished with the preorders.

Brink · 12-31-2017, 06:15 PM

Thanks for the heads up. I went ahead and ordered mine, not too concerned with the view in the mirror and it's the best looking option I've been able to find for what I want.
