Cheers Rob. :-)
I want to change how the car looks now.
I was thinking a Blobeye or Hawk conversion (i have a blob conversion at home minus the bonnet and passenger wing
But i did think about going time attack style but just not sure lol the car is a keeper (had it more than a year now so not getting rid of it lol never had a car so long haha, i went through 4 Imprezas in 2008)

I wouldnt bother to much with a Blob conversion, yes in my opinion its a slightly better look than the Bug, but then if your going through the hassle of the conversion you may aswell do the Hawk..... (just my opinion).
My the wheels do look nice Connor. Ive got a set of Dare Drifts on, but as my car is still unfinished im not taking any photos of her just yet (shes still a bit ugly

Yea i sourced everything but the headlights for the hawk it seems they are the most expensive parts even for the non xenon ones.
RA motorsport (if i go ahead with it) will sort out wide wings ect for me :-)
As for the tow hook - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/TEGIWA-REAR-TO...item2c57687dad
There you go mate.
Check their shop out for different colours.

I'm keen to know your thoughts on the BC's once fitted. My plan is to fit them, up-rated arbs and completely Poly-Bush it as well.

Well got the BCs fitted yesterday and DAAAAAM they are awesome.
Andy lads had it done in no time BUT then we hit some issues.
They told me the car felt like it was holding back and i thought this aswell. Dumpvalve was leaking and Air filter was buggered SO I went for a recirculating BOV as my car is not keen on VTA ones.....
Then I called Alastair at Trackhound lol at 4pm and he told me to just come to his house for him to adjust the map for the new valve and filter.
But 420miles later I got home safe and sound with the car handling like its on rails....... Only used £110 of fuel aswell
