Yes they would look very nice, I have the orange front indicators ready to go on plus the orange side repeaters are already in place.

Do they just literally push / clip over the fog lamps?

Pretty much. The blue surround that is on yours just pops out and the covers pop on and screw into place.

A big thanks today to Dave @ ESP for the recirculating OE valve that I picked up today , it's in very good condition and now I can start sourcing a new red silicone hose kit to go with it.

Also today my replacement silencer arrived and other than a clean up to get rid of the grime that lying idle brings it's pretty much like new.

They're all of me, Dave requested them as part of the 'deal', plus he was blowing kisses at me and winking a lot (I thought he had something in his eye at the time).

I'll just have to make sure I'm not left alone in his company from now on I think Robbie.

Today I have ordered a set of 4mm Polyurethane mud flaps in blue with white STi logos from RallyTech as well as a radiator deflector / cooling panel in crinkle black from them as well.

Oh and a replacement sticker the same as above because mine is a looking a little grubby.

And my BBS centre caps turned up today as well from Gemany so happy days.

A big thanks go to Dan (Blockhead) who put me onto a Forge recirculating valve that he saw on eBay, it was up for bargain price as it's brand new in the box so I bought it straight away.

Unfortunately the OE valve I picked up from Dave was for a V1/2 which has a smaller plastic valve, I thought it was the right one for the job until I took a closer look at what should be fitted.

I know the newage models more or less inside out but I am yet to get up to speed on the intricacies and nuances of the various classic models, there are a lot more variations compared to the newage range.

Ty, as promised here are the pics of the OEM driving lamp covers. They have the usual age related chips. Let me know if you're interested.

I can't say that I noticed if I'm honest Ian.

Got a few more jobs done today, swapped out the clear front indicators for the OE orange items and I think it looks far better. This was not an easy a job as you would believe and required the removal of the front fog lamps in order to get to the retaining bolts for the lamps.



Also removed the radiator, stripped it down and now have the fan support brackets ready for powerdercoating along with the drive belt cover, battery clamp, the coolant breather line and one of the radiator support brackets which was looking a little manky.



I am also going to order a new aluminium cored radiator as mine is looking pretty ropey as the bottom of the core seems to collect lots of dirt and debris, the tin worm has certainly had a good meal on the radiator and whilst it is out it makes sense to change it now rather than later.

Also got the Tein bonnet struts / dampers fitted as well which was a relatively pain free job, although earlier on I did manage to take a lump of skin off one finger through rushing / not concentrating.







As you can see the inlet manifold is in need of a repaint but that is not being done at the moment, it will be done after the summer is out of the way but for now it's an annoyance rather than a necessary job.

Coming on very well Ty.

If your getting some bits powder coated, whip off the header tank and get that done aswell, replace the bolts with dome tops and it will look great!
