Thanks very much guys, Glad you like her loved every moment of the build so far, especially since the crash as I and my mate Iain are the ones that have done all the work.

I like to think he'd be proud as he was a car man himself.
I have thought about the roof flap mate, there are a couple of small dents to address on the roof, so I will decide whether or not to have one when I come to do them.

I have fitted the coilovers now and she is very low, maybe too low little see how she drives over the next few days. I will get some pics later today, Its was to dark last night and I was rushing this morning. Also had a few more goodies arrive. The eagle eyed on here will notice the window strips are missing but the are ready to go back on now.

Got to be honest, when I first saw this thread, I was thinking oh god... here comes another impreza ruined! But seriously (bar the front bumper .. imo!) that car is RAW! very impressed. I like how the arches are blended in too... bit different! What did you give for the wheels if I can ask?

Interested to see these bumper mods and keep going! A great tribute I'd say... impressed pal.

If I am perfectly honest mate, I was looking through the photos of what I did to her first time around the other day and Found myself not liking it. LOL.

When I compared then and now I am so happy I took it a step or two further, I am really happy with her now. Like I said I have a few other bits and bobs to do and the she will be done externally but I am just going to get the show at Weston park this weekend out the way first.

Thank you for your comment mate.
