hi guys,

should a 1999 sti 5 type r v ltd have a 22b style front bumper / bonnet??

was it an option in japan to have roll cages fitted??

 

No to the first bit anyway AFAIK

 

No. A 22B should have a 22B style bumper/bonnet.

A Type R should have a Type R style bumper/bonnet.

Having said that, there are plently cars running around with aftermarket 22B style kits on.

I'm guessing, but I sincerely doubt it.

 

SG72`s 5 Type R came with a cage from Japan.

Dont know when it was fitted though.

 

sti do a factory fit cage

 

Quite a few manufacturers do them.

Renaultsport in France make them for the Clio Cup, and the original Cup brochure stated that it was a dealer fit option, but it never materialised.

 

so how come you mentioned that you doubted it was a option?

 

its just that this car i am looking at has 22b style spotlight covers. wud it b possible 4 a 22b bumper to fit?? with out sticking out at the edges due to the wide arches?

 

Just because they make them doesn;t automatically make it a dealer option!

My point was that Renault make roll cages, but your dealer won't fit one for you.

And like I said, I was guessing that they didn;t purely as I've never heard of it, and imports with cages fitted are extremely few and far between, usually always aftermarket ones. Never seen an STi one yet.

 

ive seen loads lol
