They do these for the Impreza now

Look here - Only £23!

Will the second one fit a UK MY99-00?? Anyone ordered one?

Edited to correct URL hash!

Would like to see a pic of one installed, it doesn't look much good in that pic but when you see the pic of the Justy (!) one it looks much better so I suspect it's just a bad pic.

Certainly seems far better value than the nito one even when you consider that it doesn't come with a gaitor.

At 23 squids, I reckon I'll order one this week and forgo a round of drinks on the weekend...Rickbrook stuff is usually top quality - I have their tax disc holder and a metal floorplate.

I've just ordered the one for my my99 from speeding.co.uk - will post pictures when it arrives.

Agreed, in the picture it looks ****, but seen the surronds for other cars at Halfords in the flesh and they look top-notch. Can't go wrong with Richbrook product!

...Watch this space...

I reckon they're real metal. Looking forward to the pic, the one shown on speeding's page does look crap but every other version I've seen looks good so unless they made a point of producing a snidey one for the Impreza it should be good!

Thumbs up

And here a a pic with it on - the cars a bit dirty, will post a pic with it cleaned up...

The only 'bad' thing is that it is a chrome finish, which really makes it stand out and makes every thing else look even more dull! I think a chrome gearknob may be next on the list...

[waiting for photo to be approved]

That looks mighty good mate - got carbon and crome **** (no rude comments please) already. I will have to move my Clifford G4 l.e.d and control buttons which are mounted around here.
How easy is it to attach? double-sided sticky??

It screws into the plastic surround - no drilling just a bit of force will get the screws through the plastic...

It does make everything look black and plasticy, so a chrome **** would look good...
