Cromity1 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Recently purchased a WRX sti 320r and I love it. It's my first Subaru and a bit of a step up in performance from my old Dicovery 3 which served me well for 9 years. however the WRX has a zunsport front bumper which my drive does not like and this morning managed to snap the lowest part of the bumper assembly. Can these parts be replaced/removed without causing much stress? should I also go for a factory front bumper replacement or find a new zunsport part? I have already told the missus we need to move because the drive damaged the car! Help and guidance appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stants Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Hello & welcome ! Ah not good about the drive situation I presume the splitter just clips on in various places Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cromity1 Posted July 20, 2016 Author Share Posted July 20, 2016 Looks like they are push pin connectors but will have to jack the car up tonight to have a look and either remove what's left or try and clip it for now. What I don't want to do is damage the bumper if I can help it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay762 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Wotcha and welcome - my splitter was all push pin connections - shouldn't be too much of an issue to remove Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cromity1 Posted July 22, 2016 Author Share Posted July 22, 2016 Thanks Jay762, most of them are pushpins but there's about 6 screw/washers as well. Sadly when the splitter ground out it snapped the bumper around two of the screws where a pushpin would have popped out. I've managed to put a temporary fix in to hold the splitter in place until I can fix the drive, get a new bumper and splitter and then get it repaired. Also worked out that if I revers off the drive it doesn't ground! Doh! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
