Default Anyone know what these are??

Does anyone know what the anodised looking studs are by the arches on this Impreza? there on the front too..... Do they serve a purpose or are they purely cosmetic??

Also the rear diffuser is made by toponeusa........ i cannot seem to get hold of one anywhere, any suggestions??

thanks for looking!

Ha ha! I have no intention of molesting your old car with things like that! was just curious as never seen them before.... pretty sure they'd be illegal in this country protruding from the bodywork anyway!

The rear diffuser does interest me though depending on whether its effective or again more of a cosmetic feature!

Certainly not cosmetically appealing
