Granby, can you remember where you got the piece of Silicon Hose mate?

Also, the sizes if possible.

Thanks in advance

New filter against the old



New filter in the wheel arch



Filter should get plenty of cold air through the fog light cover

Already have a huge Green cone filter, bit of a tight fit, so your idea would be perfect!

Thanks mate - appreciated.

CF Subaru badge and I installed a trunk STI badge on the grill.













This is how close you have to be to see how I made sure it wouldn't fly off at 160+ MPH







It's a little bigger than the normal front STI badge; Saw a similar thing done on GT-R's before.

Good job, I remember how much of a PITA door builds are

Beware of making the too thin and light as they'll just end up rattling and sounding awful.

If you put the effort into getting the finish good you could always paint them
