Nothing compliments your STI like the leather fob covers
Early gift from my Mum & Dad.

Cheers Chaps, The couple of months I've had it the more pleased I get with it too. I know no-one buys these for economy but my commute to work its pleasantly pulling back 32.9mpg. Over all extremely pleased

Not at the moment, although I have thought about changing the bulbs to silver vision ones to remove any orange Hue

If you are getting 32.9 mpg you are not driving it properly put your foot down and have fun.

Don't worry about that, It gets its fair share of foot down activity, it was an observation on my work commute which is crap for school run idiots.
The last one I had used to run as low as 6mpg on full tilt and could never get anywhere near the figures this can achieve. Mind that was 460bhp

Yeah still the Soft99, Never use anything under it, Just apply it too bare paintwork.

As above, which makes a big difference.
Not to mention different gear ratios as well.

A UK one. I know its a completely different drive but yes was very impressed - almost tempting me back
Wonder how much a JDM would be delivered to the UK or is there likely to be a special edition?
