First picture having picked the car up today (Sat) with the light fading (longest day soon?!).

Note the front bumper skirt - has rear bumper skirts too - hope to ditch these and put the regular STi dimples on instead, I'm not into the 'gran turismo' look :-) Oh, and white wing mirrors on order!

That car should have been mine, it had my name on it
Could you settle an argument for me?
1) does it have air con?
2) does it have power windows?

Have fun driving it today

Danny

If you remove the splitter, will you be selling it? I would certainly be interested in it. The car looks the business.

great front splitter, leave it on it. Need to see the rear one though to offer an opinion on that one!

Send me some photos when you take some in daylight and I'll create a Spec C page on the website!

Cheers

Very mixed opinions on the front splitter then!
To me it just doesn't look like it belongs on a rally car - and that's 50% of why I have an Impreza, for the links to rallying :-)

I'll probably sell the splitter if it comes off - thing is I don't know if it's going to be possible to take it off without leaving my front bumper full of nasty holes!

DannyB> 1) no air con 2) no power windows

Lol @ Danny.

Who bet you ? Maybe I can go win some money


Cracking car leave the splitter where it is. Otherwise I'll join the queue of people waiting to buy it

Nathan..

When it came over from Japan, it also originally had a grille that fitted over the top of the original grille, this is the item (again with that Subaru front splitter):



Needless to say I didn't like that either and it's in a plastic bag in my kitchen now!

Japanparts.com sell all these, but probably cost you quite a bit to get the front splitter over here due to size!

What about M3 Style mirrors in white ?
Live with the splitter for a while before you make a decision it may grow on you

That front splitter looks cr&p, excellent choice of colour though, much better than the red one!
Good news the missus likes it too, so there could be one on my driveway in the near future :~)







PS If you are selling that splitter it would look great on my STi8 :~) Have fun!

M3 mirrors???? It's not an M3 and it's not a max power tw@t mobile so I don't think a spec c should be spoilt with them!!

Splitter looks nice, pretty subtle and looks like it should be there.

Rocks in white!! Just needs some anthracite wheels now

mikeswrt - lovely looking car.

Add me to the list of those who would be interested in the splitter should you come to sell it - or swap for the STi dimple bits from mine!

Cheers
Peter
