I just bought the same diffuser for my car and was hoping to find an install video of some sort. Thanks for showing what to expect. I'm getting mine color matched so hopefully it'll look nice on mine :)
After watching your video, I decided to get one too for my 2017 WRX but I went with the OLM matching paint. Looks like the OLM has a different hardware for the trunk. I didn’t have to drill like what you did bc the holes on the hardware was already drilled in the middle. Also, I didn’t trust the self tapping screws that came with it and used 3 bolt screws instead and drilled 2 more holes on both sides of the diffuser.
good vid and tx. If you would have put the bolts in the trunk reversed(the bolt in trunk as opposed to underneath the car) then you wouldn't see them as the tops were black. Just a thought and less chance to get rusted nut on bolt.
Looks great! I was looking at this diffuser too but ultimately went with the GCS STI diffuser from subispeed, it looks great too and was crazy easy to install!
Man, I just found your channel and hoo boy, your mods are so clean and simple, I now just started to order more stuff for my wrx. I was wondering, after installing the diffuser, when you wash your car, do you find that water gets stuck inside the crevices or is the diffuser angled enough that water falls out during a wash?
Second question…lol thinking about this mod as well. Is it a pain in the arse to clean in between the diffuser and…diffuser? Seems like you would need to have something to slide in between
I am not a fan of weighted knobs. I’ve tried a bunch and it numbs the feeling down and makes the transmission feel fake. The accessport is completely out of the way. Doesn’t even come close to my hand.
Thanks for the video man! It looks really good! Question, where did you buy your rear side add on? Not the spat but the one on top of the spat. Wanted to get one cause it reduces the gap in the rear sides. Let me know man! Thanks
Will it fit a 2020 sti?? Sorry for all the questions, just trying to mod the car and keep it together at the same time, or my bank account will go to zero lol..

It actually looks really good, I like the way it fits and lowers the rear.
Very cool vid man!👍🏻
You make me want to buy stuff for my STi that I didn't think I needed lol
Happens to me too haha

Looks good wish there was a way to delete the original fins so you would only see fins on the aftermarket diffuser

Thanks for this vid! I’ve been struggling finding a diffuser and my thoughts are the same. I was leaning towards this too 🙏🏻
Great video! Will install mine next week.

It’ll stay on there but come right out when you drive. I use a blower to dry the car anyway and blow it out.
Nice Bud! You should do a IG page and share there as well!
I do @chrisvuono
Scoobyfreak86 Awesome Brother, followed you on IG
Looks awesome!
I know you love carbon fiber, have you ever looked at Burnz auto??
They are a little pricey but they’re a carbon fiber lovers dream.
Yes I know of them

Pressure washing cleans it out easily during my washes.
Raceseng slammer is the shizzle. Gotta have some serious weight. Gotta relocate that accessport, seriously

They are an OEM Subaru part. The usdm spats.
looks great, died laughing when you said diffuser over a diffuser haha. btw do you have a video for the carbon fiber cover around the exhaust?

Looks good! Would this fit a 2019 WRX - it only mentions STI? I’m racking my brain and I don’t think there’s any differences back there??
Exactly the same! So yes it would fit no problem.
Dang it looks good!
Looks beautiful well done! Btw You’re not a fan of mud flaps?
Not a fan. For a rally car, I understand. But I drive mine on the street.
@@Autofreakgarage yeah fair enough i still think it'll look dope tho haha
Clean 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
What ever happened with SubiSpeed? Did they take care of you with the CF fender shroud?
Yes I went over it in a previous video. I took credit on them and kept them.
Sorry for this noobish question but does it have same if not same function as the aggresive subispieed varis diffuser? Or less downforce?
This piece has little to no effect on the downforce of the car. It’s purely cosmetic.
What sub woofer set up is that? I heard kicker is it a pre fab box ?
It’s an OEM add on option. I have videos on the setup.
Will it fit a 2020 sti?? Sorry for all the questions, just trying to mod the car and keep it together at the same time, or my bank account will go to zero lol..
Yes
can you share the links the rear diffuser ?
It’s in the description
Where did you buy it bro?
There is a link in the description for the diffuser.
Will this fit a 2020 sti ?
Yes
Never go with factory stereo. The worst ever
