Can't see anything wrong with that, personally.

Mate, isn't that a new-age style chrome badge? Its not a sticker. You might be better off trying to photoshop it on the back of your car first.

I think it will slightly update the back on the classic BUT i just wondered if changing the orignal sticker, might take away its repesct as a WRX Turbo?

Personally, a few years ago i would have said, yeah, go for it, anything to make it look better/shinier/newer... whatever you are trying to do...

...but now, i would say not... It isn't a new-age, so dont put a new-age badge on it...

Middle ground would maybe get a new sticker made up in the same style as the classic one you have now... still smartens the rear up but still humble to the classic...

Just my opinion, do whatever you feel is right, its your car at the end of the day...

Don't buy this cheap stuff off ebay mate. I bought an Impreza badge (photo on my profie) to go with the genuione STI badge I bought and it looked ok for a month or two but then the "chrome" started flaking off and I had to replace with an OEM badge. Should have just paid the extra few quid in the first place.
