Cool Get your Sunglasses out....It's proper Shiny!!!

Hi all,

This is the 2nd time in 5 years that I have posted pics of my car up on Scoobynet.

Thought today was a good opportunity, seeing that I slogged my guts out this weekend cleaning it, ready for this years shows.

Enjoy.....

Thumbs up

Remember seeing it in Japanese performance about 4 years ago. I found it in a shop in Benidorm whilst on holiday with my bird. I was due to pick my red 93 wrx up on the day we returned, couldnt stop drooling over it all week!!

Still looking good Muddy!

Are my eyes deceiving me, or does your car have mis-matching indicators???

Your nearside one is orange and offside one is clear????

Whats that all about?

they are clear lenses with orange bulbs and the sunlight reflecting on the nearside is obviosuly hitting the bulb. original tango indicators would be darker than that!

Looks superb!

Get some STi (de-tango) rears lights and some clear bulbs at the front would be my only niggle

Are those fog covers on top of the lamps or instead of?

Cheers

Molds

Cheers for most excellent replies, I'm touched

To clear the Indicator debate, they are both clear, it was a really sunny evening the sun was low and it is shining onto the indicator, lighting up the bulb.

I would get some STi clusters but I'm spending no more money on her, (I'm selling up at the end of the year)

Fog lights are removed, Fog light covers in their place.

You could eat your dinner off it, including the engine bay. (The engine bay even smells nice!!!)

No birds eye shots of the engine bay, will have to get up some ladders to do that

RL7's do rule


Cheers,

Muddy

WRX Iom - removed bits I wanted silver, rubbed down and painted.

Simple as that, still ok, after 5 years.
