Sorry.

Sorry.


Just found the clip. I removed this from an interior trim piece I had leftover from my 2014 WRX.

909140024 $3.78 @Elliotw can verify this part works, I sent him the spare.

@Drambeenie
Also means it is likely available at a dealer.

True. I find it odd the cover/clip isn't available separately.

So after reading what you guys posted, I just called one local dealer out of 2 Subarus and one Toyota to ask.

This particular parts department told me it costs $5.67 per part (guess you only can order per piece rather than a set..) and 2 business days to ship.

If I call Toyota would the same part number apply? @Tcoat what do you think?

I don't mind calling around a couple places to see if they differ in cost or whatever (shrug).

I wonder if it is but maybe just isn't listed yet? It's such a small piece that can get damaged, it wouldn't make sense to require a customer to buy a whole new 500 dollar spoiler just to replace a damaged cover.

It appears to be a specific Subaru part number so it won't help much with other sources. Unfortunately Subaru is one of a very small group of makes that I have zero contacts for.

So the funny thing is, I had an idea when you mentioned that.

The 2018 86 (well, and the 860) has the BRZ 2017+ wing now. So I was like.. "hmm, I wonder if Toyota might redistribute these clips themselves with perhaps a different number now that their own cars have the spoiler."

But no luck.

Anyway I might put in an order for the WRX panel ones and see how it goes.

These definitely look nicely made and would make a nice in-between item between getting an actual wing but for $350 (Black Silica option)???? You could buy an entire wing for that price. Looks great but nah

Maybe, but then you'd be left with holes in your trunk from the OEM spoiler that would need to be filled, or need to trunk swap.

True, but that comes with most wings unless they're application specific. I'm not trying to knock the dude or his craftsmanship, he seems genuinely excited and proud of his product, and he should be because it looks great, but $350 is just entirely too much for an interim fix. For me, I'd rather just wait and spend $5-600 on an actual wing. Unsure on the quality of one you'd get for the $350, but you could still get quite a few.

Final verdict. These clips are not in our supply chain nor that of our direct costumers. I can not get without paying about what the Subie dealers sell for.

Subie dealers charge an arm and a leg for these too. I ended up buying two for 4.50 each. A couple were closer to $3 but then I had to pay shipping.
