Result, I can now

I'm a happy man, I've just done my indicators etc (or rather Mike Tuckwood at Scoobymania did ) and had a dillema about the bloody orange bits. Dilemma over, black it is

Are they standard headlight protectors that you have on? if not what are they cos I want some cos they make the front of the car look aggressive as hell.

Cheers chap, Gorgeous car, but then again, i would say that cos i've got one

Long live the DBM

In answer to your ? yes they are standard headlight protectors cos I've got them too.
The little orange thingys on my car only stayed that colour for a couple of days, I sprayed them black the same as everyone now will be!
It looks like my car apart from the wheels, I've got the gold my00 ones.
Nice!!!!!!!!!!!!

There are two sorts of headlamp protectors that you can get from your dealer or Scoobyshop -- the ones shown here are the 3D Carbon effect ones, and the other sort are clear with 'Impreza' written on the bottom of them.

Topdog
take a flat blade screwdriver, and place on the edge of the 'orange thingy' theres a little nick in the top (I think) pull the screwdriver down a bit and sort of forwards, it should come out, I've done mine a few times now (cos theyget chipped) with no probs.

Greg, top car m8.

Do you have protectors on your driving/fog lights? If so, are the Cibie or PIAA. I've been looking for ones to fit my PIAA's but can't find them anywhere.

Any suggestions anyone?

Stefan

P.S. What paint did you use on the orange wedges?

Ozzy: I colour-coded the wedges on my car with grey plastic primer, Rover Tahiti Blue Perlescent '93, and clear lacquer, all from Halfords' own range. It worked a treat - I'll post some pics tonight.

Bob: I agree with you about the bulbs. Greg, you need some!

(Edited because it looks like you can only get the clear ones from Scoobyshop).

Either get them from your dealer, or from Cheam Motors online shop:

Very nice Gregh, The car looks much better with the protectors. See Scoobysport for the silver indicator bulbs.
