may be all your mates cars have been in accidents and have had the bonnets replaced with UK ones... because as said all WRX's have alloy bonnets... Apart from some wrx wagons, as i know someone who just imported his wrx wagon and it had a steel bonnet..

Yeah ally bonnet ONLY is standard on early WRX
Early RA`s had no spoiler, manual windows, black (reads unpainted)vents & mirrors All the "luxury items" were an option on the RA though.

There are 1 or 2 of the "special" 1st editions around though that were indistinguishable as subaru hadn`t finalised the specs, so it is possible to have alloy bonnet & boot on a WRX etc
