I'm running stock height. Coil-overs would be cool but I don't want to lose more height especially if/when I get the side skirts. Maybe a set of 18" wheels will help with the gap....or just attract more attention to it.

Will the ht lip fit under an additional lip? Say I have a Trd lip. And I wanna protect it so I put a ht front lip so when I bottom out I only scrape the ht one and my Trd stays flawless

I talked with one forum member who did the front lip but wanted to see if anyone had some pointers or DIY for these?

What side skirt is that?

It's the Bayson R (not sure who actually manufactures it). I have it on mine:

Hey all! Great kits and tips! I was wondering if anyone has any specific tips or information on installing a full Seibon Lip Kit. I have the entire kit but not sure if I need to drill extra holes or just use the premade holes in the lips from Seibon. Does anyone also know if these holes maybe exist due to fitment of the stock car bolts? It would
Make sense that they fabricate these lips to not need additional drilling but wondering if this is needed specifically for Seibon. I'm not sure as I haven't been able to check yet. Otherwise I will need to get hardware for this. I just haven't heard much about the Seibon kit yet.

Ps I can't check yet because I'm in LA and I left my car in SF and I'll be getting it back soon! Can't wait! So I'm trying to do some research now so if I need some hardware I can get what I need ahead of time.

I forgot to ask you last time, are there pre drill holes in the bayson r front lip and side skirts?

Did you use jack stands to install them?

Yes, their are pre-drilled holes in the lip and side skirt. You will need to still drill into the front bumper/under side panel. I used jack stands to lift the car and install.

HI,
It is very difficult decision for me to choose the BRZ front lip from Bayson R or HT Auto.
What’s your opinion when you make your decision before?
Thanks.

SubyRS1 · 01-30-2013, 08:14 PM

I'm waiting for the Subaru STI side and front trim.
Anyone know when they will be available?
I already have the rear diffuser.

HI,
Your smoke headlight looks so cool.
Did you use overlay or spray paint on it?
What’s kind of overlay or paint you are using?
Thanks.
ps. Did you also smoke your tail light? Could you share the picture?
Thanks again.

I really want to finish the look with rear spats, just not a big fan of the logo on the sides of the HT Auto ones. Anyone seen a different option in the same material?

There are only two options as I know, if you must use PU for rear part.
1. Five axis.

Thanks man!
The lights are painted, i took them off, sanded them with 1500 gritt sand paper, mixed clear coat with a tiny bit of black paint and sprayed them all around!
I did my headlights, tail lights, and side markers. I dont currently have too many pics but will gladly take some and post them up for you....
