STI Wing and Regular WRX Wing Interchangable???
Are the regular wrx wing and the sti wing interchangable? Do they use the same mounting holes, etc.? I'm taking a serious look at an STI but I'm not really crazy about the gigantic wing. I like the regular wing since its not so high plus I like the idea of mascarading as a regular wrx. I was thinking that if it was, I could have the dealer swap it with a regular one. Thanks.

removing the stock STI wing will void part of the warranty, it actually has a functional wing, therefore anything having to do with the loss of control of the vehicle (because of the removal of the wing) will not be covered by the warranty.....i sell subaru's so if anyone has anymore questions feel free to ask.

Dude!!! What in the heck are you talking about. What is there for a warranty possibly cover? What....will the control arms bend or wheel bearing prematurely wear because there is no wing? Think about what you just said and see if it makes any sense.

i sell the damn cars........if you lose control of the vehicle not because of any disfunctional parts and the wing is removed, the warranty will not cover the repairs

PS exactly which part of the warranty does it void? The suspension, engine, what? What could possibly break on the car due to removing the wing, unless you wreck the car and again Subaru will not cover any repairs due to you loosing control and wrecking your car. I know it must say so in the head up your @ss section.
I have to keep editing, I can't stop. Your comments are absolutely the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Everyone who reads your comments will automaticly loose 2 IQ points for doing so. One last monkey for the most idiotic response I've ever seen on any forum. Thanks for getting my blood pressure up. If I have a heart attack, I'm suing you for 10 million dollars. I'm still in utter disbelief of your post. I have to go before I blow a blood vessel.

It would void your wing warranty and your engine warranty. Because without the wing negative weight puts more stress on the motor causing it to blow up after 5,000 miles. LOL But on a serious note: the first year Audi TT's that didnt have the rear spoiler were starting to lift off the ground at like 135 mph and getting totalled. Audi noticed this and had a recall, I think they covered the owners with the damaged cars too. There spoiler is like 1.5 inches tall.

If you wreck one of these at the speeds that the spoiler truly works, then there won't be enough pieces to figure out whose fault it is and the driver probably won't be involved in the discussions.
I remember Porsche releasing numbers on the circa 1980 Turbo Carrera whale tails as loading upwards of 800-900 lbs to rear of car at around 120mph. (approximate #'s from a used memory)

You sound even more ignorant with that statement. Since when has warranty covered repairs due to a crash? It's called INSURANCE not warranty. And yes, insurance will cover repairs.
