If I'm not mistaken, those "clips" have a "button" in the center. You push that in to release the clips or plastic rivet may be a better description. Then they come out easy.
+Sagina1999 Um they don't push in. You pry out the middle piece and that releases the pressure holding it in just like bumpers inner fender liners and such.
Nice vid guys love that wing on the sti. Can you tell me do you have any issues with this wing whistling or lots of turbulence noise as some of the aftermarket wings I've looked at are apparently quite noisey.
Hey Blake, a couple of guys (Zak and Ming) have inquired about the wheels on Dan's car. Can you get the details? I'm looking at getting the Prova wing for my WRX, I find the APR a little too big. Great video.
Whats up Blake! Hey just letting you know, the addition to the stock wing is technically called a Gurney Flap. Named after one of the most baddass drivers of all time Dan Gurney. He came up with it and other racers couldnt figure out why he was so fast. Lol. Its actually some pretty good history read if you get a chance. Sick vid. This makes me want to get my APR wing, but Im kind leaning towards the Kaminari race wing too. 😐
Have y you ever seen one with the 61" version. I would love to see a side by side. Please let me know if you have and if it still looks good with the smaller dimensions.
If I order this wing will it come with a drill template? If not do you have any recommendations for the installation since I will have to drill new holes? My wrx does not have any factory holes but I do want to install this exact wing.
I the video and the wing but the wing you are installing corresponding to the APR GTC-200 SCCA Spec Universal Wing Is not the same as whats being sold. Well it is the same wing but the mounting arms are not the same.That needs to be updated on the rallysportdirect web sight.
So basically you can't go back to factory wing since you guys drilled a hole in the trunk. In the beginning of the video why does he say no drilling is required?
+HalalGaming lol oh yeah I think we may have figured that after the intro. If you put the factory wing back on it will cover the new hole. Check out MyWRXChannel he put his back to stock for a minute but he has the wing back in again.
I called apr and they say the holes will be under the oem wing if you revert back to oem wing. it looks like the base is same as the sti base. did you check the dimensions and certain the corner holes won't be hide under the oem wing if I go back to oem?
+Collectors83 From the outline of the old wing it didn't look like the outer holes would be covered. If APR said it will then cool. But I don't see Dan changing back to the stock STI wing in the future.
+stephandoan Yep LOL its a gurney flap forgot the name. passwordjdm.com/PasswordJDM-Dry-Carbon-Fiber-Gurney-Flap-2011-Subaru-WRX-STi-Sedan-P10721C3229.aspx
Hello hey you Khow what is the name the sticker is above license plate the part you try to open the trunk is the one in the middle Subaru emblem and license plate is looks nice I thinkg is scp looks like carbon fiber please toll me I'm try to looking and geogle to buy
+Zed Runner Look under the comments for user name arn4726 its Dan's Car. You can ask him. The car engine wise is stock it has aero mods/wheels/coilovers/exhaust.
I was told that this wing creates too much downforce/drag for an STI with 295whp 335 torque and will hinder performance on the track. Can someone chime in on this?
Daniel Chamoun Wings don't make you go fast in a straight line. They will slow down the car a bit. However it's for grip in the turns and it will help you on the track in that aspect.
Nice video! I have the same car. 2016 STi. I did a lot of cosmetics to my car, but I definetly DO NOT have the cash for an awesome wing like that. LOL.
beetle beetle you definitely want to drill the holes. This wing is very functional and creates a lot of downforce. It actually creates so much it may slightly bend the trunk lid.
Let's get this fucker some more likes and more subscriptions! He deserves it! Seems like a cool and informative guy! Lets go TH-cam! Reppin Northern California!
+Blake's Garage Ahhh... looks awesome keep up the good work... I'm looking to pick a 2016 sti up in Hong Kong soon so just searching for parts... so far it's the aeroflow diffuser for me
+cristian marchante He bought this from APR directly. It was a limited production run just for STI's so I would ask them and tell them you saw this wing in my video!
The video was really well made, but I am not a fan of the wing. I am not hating on his car, I think that as a whole package, the car is really well put together, I just think that the stock wing looks better. Keep the videos coming, BTW I just picked up an 06 WRX WRB wagon and I will be making some DIY videos, hopefully you can check them out and tell me what you think.
That tape trick is such a great idea. Def using that.
I use a dab of silicone.
+Primer2tone Garage Thats a good idea also but messy.
+Blake's Garage
Just a dab. Lol
That's a beautiful car! Serious neck-breaker!
Nice install video! That STi definitely breaks necks all day.
Looks great, I never liked the look of the oe wing. I wonder how the base plates would look body color. They stand out a bit to much in black.
Damn his car is bad ass. Cool vid as usual!
+T-WRX Funny how you now own this car in this color LOL!
+Blake's Garage lol! I know what I like!
Great install video! I wish you had done this before I put mine on! Haha
+Dustin Williams Automotive Media Your car looks awesome with it on their!
Great video, thinking about adding one of these to my 13 STi. I appreciate you creating this.
+Howie Kahn Thanks Howie! Not many APR install videos around.
I only found one other one and they directly mention you in it. You might have the end all of install videos. Seriously, great job
Howie Kahn Wow thanks man! I really appreciate it.
If I'm not mistaken, those "clips" have a "button" in the center. You push that in to release the clips or plastic rivet may be a better description. Then they come out easy.
The round ones that hold the liner to the trunk lid.
+Sagina1999 Um they don't push in. You pry out the middle piece and that releases the pressure holding it in just like bumpers inner fender liners and such.
Nice vid guys love that wing on the sti. Can you tell me do you have any issues with this wing whistling or lots of turbulence noise as some of the aftermarket wings I've looked at are apparently quite noisey.
Dude I miss your subi videos I still reference some of your old ones for random things I've fixed or replaced on mine. Lol
Hey Blake, a couple of guys (Zak and Ming) have inquired about the wheels on Dan's car. Can you get the details? I'm looking at getting the Prova wing for my WRX, I find the APR a little too big. Great video.

+jdmcommute I like the back story to that great info!
cant wait till i purchase that wing :D great video btw very helpful !!!!
Is the trunk door out of steal or aluminium? If the trunk is out of steal would this rust after a time?
Have y you ever seen one with the 61" version. I would love to see a side by side. Please let me know if you have and if it still looks good with the smaller dimensions.
What is the front splitter on the car? I've been looking for one for seems like ages. Awesome video too. Sub'd.
very nice!! What brand wheels? size?
do you still have the stock wing?
If I order this wing will it come with a drill template? If not do you have any recommendations for the installation since I will have to drill new holes? My wrx does not have any factory holes but I do want to install this exact wing.
I the video and the wing but the wing you are installing corresponding to the APR GTC-200 SCCA Spec Universal Wing Is not the same as whats being sold. Well it is the same wing but the mounting arms are not the same.That needs to be updated on the rallysportdirect web sight.
I thought vortex was only an Evo thing? I'm confused
will this version fit the wrx trunk lid, or do i need the ones with the edge mount
Mind asking him where he got the jdm subaru badge?
What size drill bit did you use to install the apr wing?
So basically you can't go back to factory wing since you guys drilled a hole in the trunk. In the beginning of the video why does he say no drilling is required?
+HalalGaming lol oh yeah I think we may have figured that after the intro. If you put the factory wing back on it will cover the new hole. Check out MyWRXChannel he put his back to stock for a minute but he has the wing back in again.
+Blake's Garage alright makes sense
sweet ride!
Is there also 61 inch version?
I called apr and they say the holes will be under the oem wing if you revert back to oem wing. it looks like the base is same as the sti base. did you check the dimensions and certain the corner holes won't be hide under the oem wing if I go back to oem?
+Collectors83 From the outline of the old wing it didn't look like the outer holes would be covered. If APR said it will then cool. But I don't see Dan changing back to the stock STI wing in the future.
This sti is amazing 💯️💯️💯️
badass video!
+malkionx Thanks!
Will this fit a 2015 lancer ?
Does anyone know what kind of wheels those are? i love those
Did you say wing gurney? I want to check it out.... The part for the stock STI wing.
+stephandoan Yep LOL its a gurney flap forgot the name. passwordjdm.com/PasswordJDM-Dry-Carbon-Fiber-Gurney-Flap-2011-Subaru-WRX-STi-Sedan-P10721C3229.aspx
Nice detailed install video. Audio was hard to hear at times though :P
Hello hey you Khow what is the name the sticker is above license plate the part you try to open the trunk is the one in the middle Subaru emblem and license plate is looks nice I thinkg is scp looks like carbon fiber please toll me I'm try to looking and geogle to buy
does the new holes on the corners will be covered by the oem wing if you decide to go back with oem one?
+Collectors83 Nope it would not cover it. But why would you go back? Also you could always sell the trunk with the wing no problem.
What can you do to prevent rust from forming around those holes that are drilled?
+Shoegum you can paint the areas with touch up paint.
any chance I can buy his stock sti wing?
What side skirts u running?
I want to take my wing off and leave it off. Wondering if there are plugs for those holes??
what color is it, and are you interested in selling it?
Will this wing fit a 13 Scion tC?
Good looking car. Too bad the big WANGS for our hatchback our pretty ugly. Except for the SRT rally wing.
+Cali_WRX You should get the rally wing!
Who's car is this? I want to know more about the car.
+Zed Runner Look under the comments for user name arn4726 its Dan's Car. You can ask him. The car engine wise is stock it has aero mods/wheels/coilovers/exhaust.
Old video, I know but, Wonder where he got his STI front plate?
Kiss Kiss that’s an official Subaru product, you should be able to order one through your local dealer
Ayyyy a Boostaholics sticker !
+Jesse Luna I have one in my garage too!
I was told that this wing creates too much downforce/drag for an STI with 295whp 335 torque and will hinder performance on the track. Can someone chime in on this?
Daniel Chamoun Wings don't make you go fast in a straight line. They will slow down the car a bit. However it's for grip in the turns and it will help you on the track in that aspect.
Blake's Garage Awesome, thanks for the quick reply
Nice video! I have the same car. 2016 STi. I did a lot of cosmetics to my car, but I definetly DO NOT have the cash for an awesome wing like that. LOL.
+STiZar Nice ride! Yeah its not cheap but it looks amazing!
BADASS!
R u selling ur old wing
What is that front lip you got on there? i have a 16 wry and am currently looking for a lip
+cfunicelli He made that lip himself.
+Blake's Garage You should do a full review on Dans car bad ass I want to see more!
Is that an APR front splitter too? How's the fit and finish on it?
+mkylelewis no that front splitter was custom made.
nice work.......bom trabalho
is it possible to not drill the last 2 holes? is the wing really unstable if it is not bolt on to those holes?
beetle beetle you definitely want to drill the holes. This wing is very functional and creates a lot of downforce. It actually creates so much it may slightly bend the trunk lid.
thanks a lot!
Sick af
Your beard bruh. That shit's amazing **O**
Let's get this fucker some more likes and more subscriptions! He deserves it! Seems like a cool and informative guy! Lets go TH-cam! Reppin Northern California!
+KrunchyKaine Thanks man!
What kind of diffuser is that?
+Unconventional Wisdom It's a custom ABS plastic one made by a guy in the bay area.
+Blake's Garage Ahhh... looks awesome keep up the good work... I'm looking to pick a 2016 sti up in Hong Kong soon so just searching for parts... so far it's the aeroflow diffuser for me
I went 74in chassis mount bybattle aero
wheel and tire specs please?
Would he be interested in selling his Sti wing
Where did you purchase your wing ? Several diff website but i want to make sure its the same one
+cristian marchante He bought this from APR directly. It was a limited production run just for STI's so I would ask them and tell them you saw this wing in my video!
Did the owner said it was direct bolt on? I wouldn’t let this guy drill a hole in my car.
Only two new holes. Also factory wing covers the drilled holes.
it looks kinda nice but i dont see the sense in changing the wing
+takumi fujiwara Downforce!!
Awesome! I want to that exact one but they are $$$.
+My WRX Channel Looks even more amazing in person.
The video was really well made, but I am not a fan of the wing. I am not hating on his car, I think that as a whole package, the car is really well put together, I just think that the stock wing looks better. Keep the videos coming, BTW I just picked up an 06 WRX WRB wagon and I will be making some DIY videos, hopefully you can check them out and tell me what you think.
Enjoy the rust from not priming those drilled corner holes.
Does he have an Instagram or TH-cam channel on his car?
hook it up the stock wing
being someone that has an old car with a leaky boot because of this please be careful about what you are doing
+Mike Seeds Good idea I guess a little silicone wouldn't hurt.
+Blake's Garage yeah and some rubber spacers. My boot is like a swimming pool. Lol
Mike Seeds It came with rubber spacer's so it should seal pretty good.
+Blake's Garage looks sick btw
pshhh. should have just did an 80
+SuBros Cutting cars in half driving down the freeway LOL!
+Blake's Garage go big or go home🎃
"It looks cool and breaks necks..."
k
Too many ricer parts. and its a deep socket. I kept my 93 FD almost stock for this reason. Just a yuck car
Sell me the sti wing I got cash in hand!!!
Did the owner said it was direct bolt on? I wouldn’t let this guy drill a hole in my car.
