they said to post copy of the logbook and copy my passport and they will send out the manual and service book with warranty papers same as my last 2 subaru i had from them.I called them up today to find out if it is fitted with the alarm and tracker the sales man i dealed with is out they said he will call me back.I will let khow what happens as soon as they get back to me.hoping they will pay for alarm and tracker if there is one not fitted.

Mesh, went for the Zunsport mesh that fits the stock grill, originally wanted the Subaru option mesh but thought Silver Mesh on a silver car was not for me so went for the black. Was tempted by your new grill but quite liked the
silver accent on the stock grill, especially as it matches the silver on the fogs.

Did notice though yesterday that the new fogs have some mesh in which now won't match my new grills, grrr.
lol i just noticed that

i've just been messing around with overlays for hte rear lights

did a 100% red and a 75% black

i quite liked the look of the tinted black.

For information and for if you buy another import - When I got mine from Litchfield Imports, it came with tracker/Thatcham 1, + all the paperwork/certs etc, all handbooks, service booklet etc etc. Faultless purchase experience from Iain. Would recommend him 100%.

Not sure about the rear lights yet, may get a clear fog and go from there, Mrs likes them as they are but am tempted for the red outer ring overlays, hmm decisions.

Thought you had the spoiler already, wondered why it was not on the car yet, how does it look? I emailed them this am to see if they were going to make a V-lip in carbon but alas no their not unfortunately!

Full Miltek is very quiet - so no worries about track day noise - but depends how much you want to be noticed or how quiet you want it inside.

it looks absolutely stunning and really ties in with the carbon pillar trims i have on it, once the windows are tinted i think the look will be complete.

That looks ace, was not sure about the rear light tints yesterday but now with the spoiler it looks spot on.

Sorry to spend your money but have you considered the carbon front v-lip and carbon exhaust finishers!!!
