New wheels ordered today.

 

Love this so far. My 2p tho is stick with low level spoiler. Just full de badged
Sti grill is a must and flap all thumbs up dude

 

Ordered my wheels last week. Collected them in Tuesday





Fitted them first thing Wednesday morning





Then Thursday was the day to go and see Jake for the big changes
Arrived about 9:30 am & after a quick brew we made a start in stripping the car.





Roof lining dropped and flap bracket offered up to check where needed cutting



Once the inner skin was marked out we made some pilot points to start the drilling.



On to the drilling part



Jake then proceded to make the starter cuts which would allow access with the air saw



Hole cut & inner mounting bracket fitted



Rubber outer seal fitted & siliconed in place to make sure of no chance of leaks



Flap bolted to roof



Then proceded to fit the inner trim part

 

Once the flap was fitted it was time for a bit more stripping down of the car









Once all the parts were stripped off it was time for some masking of the rear pillars & drill them to allow some Rivnuts to be fitted into them





Rear window spoiler now fitted



Then the Genuine STi Rear spoiler got fitted



.

Next it was time to install the new headlights. These proved to be a right pain in the *** with the HID kit to wire in.



JDM Front grill also got fitted once the lights were fully in and working.



Next was the STi bonnet vent and undertray to be fitted to complete the look of the front end



SBy this time it was getting late so the STi skirts got but on and the car off the ramp for a quick pic





Awww Look at the poorly white one in the background


Outside for some more pics before it goes fully dark

 

Looks very nice indeed

 

Very nice!

 

Nice!

 

Looks great. Those wheels suit the colour and height really well.

 

Cheers for the positive comments, Wasnt too sure on the wheels at first but after google searching black impreza with white wheels it helped me to decide.

Found out the other day when fitting the wheels its on KYB springs & Shockers

 

bonus, looks very similar to what i did with my sti -

 

This was my old one, Went from this



To this



I have fog covers for my black one but cant decide if to fit them or not.

 

V nice justme looks quality now mate, future mods?

 

Just sikkkk bro lost for words boom!! All in one day what a guy

You coming to the meet on the 13th bro? It'll be sick to see the scoob in the flesh

Ohh and it'll be good to see you aswell

 

Cheers pal, I will probably be in work sadly

 

Shame would have been good to link up with you mate, everybody's really freindly and fun to get on with and very welcoming at the LADS meets

Maybe next time

 

To OP:

 

Went to NBO a few years ago & really enjoyed meeting some of the members

 

Thank you Shakal

It's that going in the car?!

 

Yep but its not a monitor

 

Aaaah, fail.

So...

 

It is STi Clocks (Need to get mileage changed on them as my car is on 87k & the Clocks have 77K on them)



Also STi Blob Steering Wheel

 

Cool. How do you advance the digital odo?

 

Not sure to be honest, I will have to check google to see if there is a company local to me that can do it

 

That is looking great !! What are the wheels ??

 

Cheers The wheels are Bola B7

 

 

Also bought a new number plate for it this week



Not sure on what to do next with it.
