Newbie showing his wagon
Hi, this is my My97 sti wagon (Hence the user name hehe), Only had it a couple of weeks, but seems ok..
A bit more practical than my nissan 200sx s14a, for the dogs and camping trips....

I know what you mean about the fog light. Still debating what to do about mine.

Am I seeing the slats of a Front Mount Intercooler on it... or am I imagining it?? Dont remember my lower grill being colour coded on my MY98 UK Wagon. 
Looks good though, everyone knows that the Wagons are the faster models.
Cheers,
Grant

re the foglight..
For a really clean look. Cut the wiring to the naff hanging down light and pull it back up through into the boot (it's usually been routed this way) cut the two wires to the offside reversing light bulb in the rear cluster then simply join the wires you have from the fog light switch to the reversing light bulb! all you have to do then is get some red glass paint (stuff for doing stained glass windows) from a craft/art shop, it comes in a squeezey tube and you can cover the bulb in it. Let it dry over night and there you have it, one red bulb. Refit and admire your handywork. Really cleans the back end up!
