Default Hawkeye WRX's show yourselves,

Here's some of the evolution of mine, show me yours,...

now with the prodrive rep wheels (hated the colour), zero sports carbon spoiler lifters, front lip, and the quest for more Bhp has begun...

After much pressure to change my marmite spoiler lifters I went for the 06> STi look, a rear diffuser, and carbon mirrors.

A mate purchased a set of second hand rims, they arived in Rota boxes, in one box was a Rota leaflet, and that's why I now have Rota's.
zunspor lower grillet, a set of tinted headlamp covers and DIY No: plate delete to complete the dark look.
Following the suspension set up I realised I did actually need more brake performance so went for the K-sport 8 pots and 356mm rotas, soon upgraded to EBC blue stuff pads.

And how she is today, (for now atleast).

Decided to try spoilerless and de-badged,

Sure was, as I'd had it from new I new every mark on it, if I had it now though it would be a lot lower with some low offset rims, funnily enough just like yours!!

As for the hatch, love it but the Hawk was a brilliant daily driver that was pretty cheap to run and a great introduction the Scoob ownership.

Black-Hawk, im working on that part already, not sure how it'll turn out, time will tell...

Flaps, got it from japanparts.com, cant remember what I paid, but it was expensive!!!
Easy to swap over, undo a few screws and the panels just pop out
Edit

bottom of page 2 and top of page 3 are the things you'll need

Tinting rears can look cheap imo, that's why I Havnt gone there, I think the best rear upgrade is the blob lamps...

Nothing major done thus far, but got a few things planned. Needed a wagon for the space, so had to be a WRX (new hatch is just a little too small in the back for me). I would like to bring it up to as close to STI spec as I can. Some great cars in here so far, loving the STI clocks as well, that looks like a fun mod
