i KNOW saw the rain, jumped in the Car to put in gararge and front wheel crunch 
sorry but completely flat & fubar'd.
You could have it for £10 and use to wedge under a table leg to level it up LOL
TBH,
The i got them Both for £115 inc postage etc from www.scoobyclinic.com
I looked at buying from states $220 + £30 customs. So much cheaper.
I gave them the Perrin part numbers and KEV ordered them

Foglight covers from US
Hi
Just received a set of the foglight covers from the US (bought via fleabay) - got shafted by addition of VAT (20%) and a Royal Mail handling fee £8.
Phoned Royal Mail and apparently Customs select random parcels as they cannot check/charge for every one that comes into the Country. If you get a customs charge e.g. VAT then the Royal Mail handling fee is also applied to pay for there import facility.
Just be aware dudes if you order stuff from the US you can get these added charges - I know some have been lucky and had nothing added.
Plus side is they were still cheaper than ordering from Subaru UK
Any tips for fitting these? - do you need to remove part of the foglight surround already there?
Cheers

Should always factor in VAT and admin charge so when you don't have to pay it it makes you feel good
Just unclip the existing covers and replace with the plain ones.
You'll need to drop the front part of the arch liners for access to the clips.........

Well the final piece of the jigsaw puzzle is now finished thanks to my mate and his spray gun!

Painted
Fitted
Only thing I may do later this year is change the wheels for some S206 rims, well the closest I can get so probably BBS CH-R's in black.

Yes taken off the standard Black Brembo's 4pots and the 326mm Disc.
These are 6 pot 360mm Discs
The Black ones are exactly the same as the gold on. 02-10 STi IIRC
I'll have to put them up for sale
Tony
Jamie shame that wasn't an Auto window closer, I want one

A really daft question but has anyone removed the warning labels from the sun visors and if so how, I can't quite see if they are a transfers or stickers but they just irritate me so would like to get rid of them...

I've got the low level spoiler on the rear. I know the fitting diagram was posted earlier in the thread but does anyone know if the HT Autos high level spoiler will go on with the holes that will have been drilled to fit the low level one, or am I looking at a new boot lid to get the HT spoiler fitted?
