Does anyone know if the 2002 to 2004 2.5RS has side skirts? I have a WRX and I'm not a real fan of the pretty bulky stock side skirts that come with it. But I noticed that in Japan, the STi spec C doesn't have the huge bumper of the US STi nor the aggressive side skirts. So I thought it would be cool to take the 2.5RS side skirts & place them on the WRX, and give the car more of a spec C look. Do you guys think that would work?
Thanks for any replies.

 

The reason why the Spec C has (almost) no sideskirts and front/rear lips is because they expect you to put on an aftermarket one. If you're talking about the circuit edition Spec C, you have to remember than it's essentially just a car, a chassis, and a body. Subaru expects hardcore circuit racers to mod the hell out of it. That's why it comes with 16 inch steel wheels, no aero parts, and crappy seats.
To make a stock WRX or STi look like a Spec C would be to go backwards, actually. Also, the 2.5RS sideskirts are different: they have a rough texture on the bottom's paint surface. So if anything, you'll make your WRX look like a 2.5RS with a hood scoop If you wanted a Spec C look, you'd have to slap on steel wheels too. And get a custom interior that'd actually be lousier than the stock WRX interior.
Hope you understood what I said; hope I didn't offend
