DarrenSTI - Right, now i am confused !! Can you confirm that Part No. SECSSE3060 as per my link on the first post is the one YOU have fitted in your picture and it comes in BLACK? As Phil previously said he thought that the Subaru one is Chrome. If it is the one you have, then this is what i will be buying !! I'm kinda glad Scott Lowe was out of stock of the grills today as i nearly bought theres. This is the one i want now !!
How easy was it to fit and did you have to do any drilling etc into the bumper at all?

Cheers for your input.

Tissy:- As per picture, it does look like the very same, with the mesh being set back in its own surround. The start of the code looks familair, and I'm 99.9% sure the rest is. I'll do a search as I posted full details when I fitted it months ago, and hopsfully the code as well.

As for fitting it was very easy, just make sure you are happy with it location in the way that you can push it back so it doesn't wobble when screwed in place. Yes you do have to drill about 3 or 4 hole, but even if you mis-line it like me you can't see the spare holes made (car is now lighter in weight ).

A short heavy duty screw driver was used to get the leverige on the screw wheb the car is not jacked up.

DarrenSTi - I think i found the thread you are refering too (https://www.scoobynet.com/lower-fron....html?t=488591)and the part number is the same. Order placed with Days of Chelmsford!! Should be there by the weekend .

Did you get your speaker issue sorted out OK in the end.

Regards,

Steve

Tissy, fond the invoice for the grille, a bit point less now, but yes the grille is the same number on the invoice, so you have ordered the same as the one fitted to my car. You will be pleased with it, matches the top one great!.

Not sorted the speakers yeah, might do next week sometime. Been quoted £40 for fitting and brackets made, just for the fronts though, not sure what to do.

Subaru manufactured lower grill collected from local dealer this morning .

As you would expect from a genuine Subaru part, good quality and the mesh matches the pre-existing upper grill.

Now for fitment.

Thumbs up Lower Mesh Grill Fitted With Pics

Just a quick update......fitted the Subaru manufactured front lower mesh grill this afternoon and really pleased with the results. It was easy to fit and as you would expect from a Subaru part it was well made and clips into place perfectly. Highly recommended !!

I've uploaded some before and after pictures here - http://www.wrx-carpc.co.uk/modifications.htm

Thanks for everyones input on this.

I reckon a nice Scott Lowe V-Lip next !!

Steve
