Default Facelift 1998

Hi

looking to detango my 1998 wagon STI import. Advert I have seen for total kit asks if 1998 pre face lift or 1998 face lift. I looked on seat belt ( saw on a thread ) and the date was May 1998. Any help would be appreciated - am I pre or post face lift?

That's my '98 facelift model, does that help?

It has an MRO styling front splitter and Morettes though, so maybe not?

Don't forget there were TWO facelifts within a couple of years, one in later '98, which yours looks to have, and one in 99 which it doesn't.

The '98 one altered bonnet line, headlight line and grille.

The 99 one altered indicators, number of slats on front of bumper, and grille, very slightly, but the 98 one still fits.
