i've only just noticed this but how come some of the limited editions don't come with rear clear sti lights? for example sti ra, p1, rb5 etc. you've paid so much money for a limited edition car so how come you don't get all the decent equipment?

The STI rears don't come with a foglight fixture as standard...you can modify it though.

There are ways to put fog lights in the sti lights though (and im not talking about painting the reverse light!)

It could be the fact that the lights are much cheaper than the sti's so subarus are saving their money??!!

Don't start "the law" thing again boss!

I agree Babber, yours looks 100 times better with those STI lights.

I'm saving up for some for mine now

I think you should keep it exclusive and only have clear lights if it's an STi

But then I would say that

Why not get some lexus lights for that exclusive look

lexus lights look a bit tacky if you ask me on the classic not quite so bad on the bug eye though, prefer the sti lights to the lexus's though.

Thumbs down

Gotta disagree with you yet again (and all your chums on this thread) - I personnally think that the standard tangoes look far better on the RB5...

Still, we are living in a democracy (allegedly).

BTTT for you chimps...
