Nice motor mate

I have seen you around Solihull & Knowle quite a few times.
You used to have a really nice silver classic shape didn't you?

Looks cracking mate.

Love the black wheels and flaps.

De-badged boot works a treat, but I'm not in agreement about the fog covers.

Makes it look like a WRX IMHO. (not that there is anything wrong with that, but its not how its meant to look)

Once again,thanks for all your comments.

The blue bulbs are the Xenons that John Griffin was supplying last year and no,i havent had any problem with the law over them.

As far as the covers are concerned,if you're a true enthusiast you dont need a sticker to tell you that it's a STi-the scoop should give that away!Once again,this is my own personal opinion.

Personally, my initial opinion, as an enthusiast, would be that someone has stuck an STI 8 scoop on a WRX.....

I presume that is exactly what he wants people to think whilst he is queued up at the red traffic light

Considering the cost of OEM Subaru parts - Fog lamp covers, STi 03 seats and interior, dash, six speed gearbox, Scoop, Pink badge, £750 spoiler and £1000 of alloys and tyres and exhaust.

Cost of WRX new £20k,

Cost of STi new £24k

Just spend the 4k on the real thing rather than painting and fitting the above. SO I think most will recognise it as an STi. Diffrent case on old classis as part can be bought on the cheap.

Nice to see a good looking silver one for a change, rather than the std blue. I like them subtle, and you have got it just right. I would stick a WRX spoiler on it and keep everyone guessing, but that is my opinion. Have you lower it yet?
