Its not the case of having the ***** to do something, but some things should be left as the manufacturer meant it.

If Cookie wanted to stand out, he'd go for a drive in the Scoob

fair point Ed, but dont think there are too many standard scoobs knocking around, if it be for engine mods or styling mods.

I didnt say there was anything wrong with doing things different.. im all for that.

I was pointing out that something clearly looks sh1te..

In effect im offering a free service to all ESC members.

I help them combat the uncontrolled laughing and finger pointing from local passers by that will also think it looks ****e or serve no purpose.

Scoobs are now seen as a chavs "boy racer's" ride. Its styling disasters like this that have earnt the impreza that handle.

So here i am "care for the ESC community"
