Jamie, IIRC that's the "WRC Grill". I'd look at Orciari and the other WRC-knockoff style body kits to see if they have something close.

I think I may have one similar to that. I will send you a pick. It is unpainted and if you want it I will give you a really great deal on it. I will have to take the pic when I get home tonight.

That looks like a 22B bumper and I think the grill is intergrated into that bumper if I remember correctly (probably not)

You could get a 22B replica grill in that case...its what I have on my car...though I wouldn't get it again if I had a choice :D

It's not a 22B grill (nor a replica... it's close though ;) ). The 22B has a full pillar going from the top of the grill to the bottom, ala

[img]http://www.northursalia.com/modifications/exterior/22bgrill/7.jpg[/img]

That grill is missing the top part of the "pillar" of the 22B grill. Both the 22B grill and that WRX grill are part of the bumper cover on the 'real deal' car :). What I would honestly suggest is to get the replica 22B grill from Chris Douma for $150 or whatever it is- the material it is made of lends itself easily to 'modification' with things like a dremel and sandpaper :D. Just cut the top of the pillar off and call it a day :).

how about this:

from [URL=http://burn-up.vis.ne.jp/nai_ru/cgi-bin/cata/clip.cgi?mode=sview&bango=2]here[/URL]
or [URL=http://burn-up.vis.ne.jp/nai_ru/]Their Homepage[/URL]

apparently they do [B]not[/B] ship to the US, so you would need to have it shipped to a friend overseas (like Ethan:D )

mykrrrr

Jamie - AVIS does sell the grille. If they don't ship to the States, I've got a rally friend in Japan that could get it shipped to him and then to you or me.

Let me know.

oh man i would so love to have that... :DJ. [/B][/QUOTE]??? Why not?? STi makes the sport bumper that is for the non flared Impreza's overseas... the only thing that would maybe need changed is the bumper beam. There are replicas of that whole bumper too. (AFS Motorsport)

You too can have the front look of a 22B for you're non flared Impreza... this is old news.

The do-luck is no good I think.....it gives the flared fenders but comes back in too much for the bumper....compared to the 22b bumper

The whole kit should be available in the uk or probably mrt might have it.....

As others have mentioned the whole package bumper and grill is what you are looking for unless you are dremel happy....

And if you can find the 22b style bumper for a good price (non-wide body) be sure to let me know - thanks

Good Luck
