Its a personal thing, I think its good to see something different. If you like 'em keep. F**k the others!

Sunstrip's OK. The others look too "not sure if I dare so I'll just do a bit and see if I like it". Personal taste, but I wouldn't. I go for the smoother debadged look. If they aren't paying, I aren't advertising.

Love the wheels and flaps. Nice polishing job too

its a personal thing mate, to me it looks like theres something missing? or its been started not finished, it looks ok. my personal view would be get rid and just keep the sunstrips, or get the whole lot done?!!

lovely lookng car either way!

I reckon its looks sound mate,

Except for the MOTUL stickers on the bumper,
Get rid of them as it looks like a cheap add on compared to the rest IMHO

cheers for your constructive opinions.

Like I said in my initial post, I'm really undecided about them. I think I will remove all but the sunstrips and the small OZ on the spoiler.

Thats what I was thinking 555, the OZ on the spolier looks good, and the sunstrip, the motul and toyo look out of place. Looking bloody nice anyway though !

Had some graphics put on mine recently as well, having some more put on Thursday night on the sides of the back spoiler then thats it.

Graphics are a completely personal thing, I love mine but I got mixed reactions when I posted on here.

PC555, that looks stunning mate, I quite like that as it is. The Silver graphics coordinate nicely with the Silver wheels. One of the nicest STi's I've seen was like yours but with the Silver 555 graphics on the side.

Cool

I think it is down to personal choice, but here is mine with 1 or 2 stickers added.

wrxtankie I replied to the email you sent me explaining all about the graphics and where to get them here.

did you not get a mail from me last week?

Unless you are not Aston Dimmock??? then that would explain why you never got my email.

I think you should keep yhe OZ and sunstrip and lose the others only if you plan to stop there. If your plan is to get it looking like worzels or Charlies then leave them on.

BTW, really nice car Wurzel, i like it done the "whole hog" Charlies is looking i hope you post some pics when done Charlie

You've actually done what I'm planning to do. My car is a sonic blue classic like (?) Wurzels. I'm not too sure about full on graphics but am going to have small yellow Subaru swoosh on the wing uprights, something each side of the front bumper and maybe similar on rear bumper.

I've already got scoobynet.co.uk on the windows. I bought a sunstrip and the Prodrive logo but decided against using the Prodrive logo and may just use the SUBARU logo instead.

Just spend 20 minutes in the pooring rain removing the graphics!

Kept the Sunstrip, OZ Spolier logo and the prodrive logo below the front number plate. I think I've made the right decision, the car does look better without the front 'motul' and 'toyo' logos.

Thanks to everyone who gave constructive opinions.

Cheers

Thanks Pete, unfortunately Mark (RB5) was unwell last night and couldn't make the meet so I didn't get them done, but when they are (hopefully at the Southend Cruise on 3rd April) I will post some pics
