Here is mine, which I did after seeing yours. Thanks for the info!!

It took me about three hours to do them both, I think it looks great on a silver car.

Jon, where did you get that splitter from? I would like one of those!!

Fitted one to mine looks excellent on the Silver car, leave it black it looks more like the JDM one.

Not at the mo, I'll sort some out tomorrow.

Here's someone else's from another thread which I looked at when buying mine.

I think this is megabusa's car who I believe is Scott Lowe.

Couple of WR1's one with one without as a comparison.

Nice one API330

not entirely happy about it looking better on your car tho

Jon

Regarding the splitter.

Wonderful add-on...and strong!!

I caught my splitter on a ladder(don't ask)
but it was with so much force that both fog lamp blanks popped out of the bumper

and not a single mark was left on the splitter even tho it must have bent double underneath on itself

Something so simple and it has made a big difference. It certainly makes the car look a lot more aggressive.


Well Done pal !!!!!

you could try making the image black and white for a black car, I would have posted a pic but Mozilla won't let me paste it.

De-tangoed mine over the weekend but was not sure about the spraying bit so left them as they were. I have a black 03 STi.

Still not convinced they are right - maybe I need to see them in the flesh. I have de-stickered mine anyway so maybe a bit of contrast is the best thing.

Photos soon.

Did the de-tango on my black WRX and i'm glad i didn't do the black headlight mod as i was planning too.....looks great on the blue, and in particular on the silver, but i think you kind of lose the contrast on the black paint....IMHO leave them chromed
