HSPN TV: How-To /Install - Perrin Performance Wing Stabilizer - Page 2

great install video as usual HSPN.

as for the stabilizer, i would love to have a few of these, but they are set at a stupid price.

Yeah I saw these quite a while ago, I don't remember what price they were advertised, but I do remember that it was insanely high for questionable gain.

Here's my question though, why does the top portion of the STI wing even have that screwed in panel up there? It doesn't have anything to do with attaching to the lower portion and if they were molding a piece of plastic wouldn't it have been easier to just make it solid instead of having to make that extra piece. Anyone have an answer?

I have no idea why the holes are there...

Subaru did the same thing in the backseat area. There are magically 3 unused holes behind your backseat that the x-brace attaches to. Why they were there in the first place I don't know...pretty convenient though!

Does anyone have a picture of these installed on a WRB STI?

Nice Install. Looks Good. But not $286 plus shipping good. There needs to be a Group Buy on these! The price would have to be considerably less for me to consider it.

Maybe it's so high just because it's a new product and Perrin has to pay for all the R&D they did. Here's looking forward to a price drop in the near future.

Too much coin..... Nice product,,,, If it was painted for that price in White i'd consider that cost ,,, Maybe..... But as it stands now way too much ....

Chris' sti · 10-02-2006, 10:16 AM

I personally think they look like crap! All i really have to say.

SonicBoom · 10-03-2006, 11:36 PM

+1 I don't like them at all. the shape doesn't fallow the wing design and the lack of a color match makes them look ricey to me.

LogicalXtremes · 10-05-2006, 04:11 PM
