have to say, i've thought about gettin rid of the orangensaft stylee indicators, but i think that the front end would be too bland if all colour coded! need's something to break it all up. just like painting the calipers red...needs' something to break it all up from the side too.
and slowboy. the splitter looks a whole lot better in the flesh.

not yet m8. half waiting for it to happen, but if you run your hand in the inside of the rear arch there's a small ridge...that's been taken away just in case, by a rubber mallet! so basically, it shouldn't rub anywhere...hopefully.

Like everyone else has said....crystal lenses all round!
STI rears and a decent spoiler and it'll be the mutt's nuts!
Those wheels are amazing....only ever saw them on JDM cars before but man do they suit the RB5!
Well done son!

fank you all very much. your ideas on what to do next are dooly noted. already considering the larger rear spoiler! but right now, i'm fine with lights being the way they are.
h&r springs dropped the car by 30-35 mm.
cheers again lads

Stunning mate!
Have to agree that for some strange reason I think it would lose something if you de-tango'd it. Even stranger is the fact that the red calipers look great - I usually hate 'em in red.
The wheels look superb and I like the splitter (MRO?)

the red calipers look great cos of the RB5 badging on the fog covers and the sides - that's red too, so they set each other off.
it's all about co-ordingating you see...

cheers peeps just thought i'd let you all know i got a wee bit of scrubbing in the back arch! so now the arches are rolled a little bit and the small bit of plastic at the corner of the rear bumper, where it meets the rear quarter has now been cut off to have been replaced with a small screw to hold it all in place. now...no scrubbing!
