If you must have new, as of this posting, Perrin still has the 3 inch diameter catted front pipe on sale.

I imagine there has to be some major cutting involved?

It's awesome!

maybe @PERRIN_Mladen can provide some insight as to why Perrin is no longer producing products which replace/remove catalytic converters.

I suppose I can chime in

There is no state that allows for cats to be replaced unless they have failed or are out of warranty. Even then, they need to be a proper cat and the high performance cats do not qualify for legal replacement.

There will always be companies bending the rules to do this, but we are taking the "green" high road.

In regards to switching to 3" versions only, we are not. Those will be discontinued and taken down from the website once they are sold out as well.

If you have any further questions, you're always more than welcome to PM me.

lol I'm glad you asked! No they are not the STi ones from JP, these are the STi style ones from Bayson R

But you couldn't tell the difference right ? Fitment was perfect, quality seems to be great and installation was very straight forward. They come with everything needed for install. Bayson R will be releasing STi style side skirts in a month or less

For the price, you can't go wrong! Highly recommended verses the over priced genuine STi ones that JP sells

Don't get me wrong, I own genuine STi parts on my car and love the real stuff, but these are a God send. I personally wouldn't pay double or triple the price for two pieces of plastic, unless they had a titanium skeleton

Yeah they have to remove the top of the roof and replace it with the new carbon fiber piece. If it doesn't line up right it will leak worse than a bad moon roof installation.

None! All holes line up, there's only two. One underneath and one inside the wheel well. There's a thin strip of 3M tape on the outer edge including weather strip.

Simple and fast install!

Thank you for this! I totally thought you had STI spats. I was thinking, "Damn! Another guy with STI spats... I don't want to spend that money right now." I had no clue Bayson R had these! My plan is slowly coming together with awesome guys like you showing me the way. I'm going for the OEM look, but on a budget. Thank you!

Where did you order them from? Bayson R direct?

Well I know one can go through eBay. I was also going to say that Bayson R's site has them for a reasonable price, too. Since his apparently didn't ship all jacked up, I was curious to know exactly where he got his from.

DON'T QUESTION ME!
