What's wrong with the bumper and those wheels look great on it?

In fact the whole car looks great, can't wait to find one I like.

Sweeeet and in my fav colour!!
Am not a fan of the front bumper, I think a stock one looks much better also.

Congrats on the purchase.

I agree with you regarding the bumper! Just looks wrong on a V5 onwards. Makes it look like and early bumper has been fitted. I've never been a fan of the 22b bumper anyway. Original bumper and V6 lip is the way forward.

Enjoy!

Was talking to a friend about SVA imports, we both said their prices are not looking way over priced anymore. Good STI's have crept up in value and SVA's stock no longer looks £3k over priced!

Prices in japan are climbing rapidly. SVA brought them in when they were cheap and loaded the price so they didnt actualy sell. Now there about going rate for imports so they are selling
