Default my 95 wrx...















some pics of my 95 wrx after a good wash and polish. apologies for the picture quality, my phone camera is only 2 megepixels. it looks better in real life. ignore the sticker mark on the left hand of the bootlid, trying to get it off with tar remover still...

hope you like.

Have you looked at www.revolution.eu.com It's both good exhaust and superb value for money at only Ł300.

just a couple of more pics i took after applying some little graphics for the front and back of the car. i didnt want the "subaru" letters on the back so opted for a rally swoosh to fill up some space. comments welcome as long as there within reason

Stickers say one thing

..and thats 'look at me I'm a ****'

I'm sure the money would be better spent on some subtle colour coding of the sills/door handles etc...

I'm just trying to help,you're obviously very young and perhaps a little to over enthusiastic.

My comment was not meant as a personal attack at all,but like it or not stickers on cars is not particularly a good thing

thats your opinion. you may think i look a **** with them on my car but what about all the other cars on here with graphics/decals etc? i wanted positive and or costruvtive comments. not "well your just a spanner for hving something you like on your car"... 21 for your information. young yes, over enthusiastic... erm no. the cars silver with subtle black graphics. there is a lot worse on cars trust me...

I think you might be confusing old with 'grown up'

anyway heres my old classic from a couple of years ago,and no stickers required,just some colour-coding,a splitter and a different grille basically



...just trying to point you in the right direction,thats all

exhaust next fella. look at the top you will see that im on the standard one at the mo. not good enough. i prefer these wheels anyway myself. dont want big ones, ruin the handling.

elmer - nice car, but looks the same as a lot of subarus. very clean example, but i wanted a bit of individuality, without going ott. hence the same old graphics but in a my unique way. theyre not ott and i like the rally look, not the show and shine look of your classic (thats not a detremtal comment btw)

ive got my look and you yours end of. just wondering what other people thought of them as a whole. anybody with simiaar graphics/colours on a silver car...

I'm not a fan of graphics either, but as you have said there are a lot worse out there.

I think your wheels are ok, but would look a lot better in silver/anthracite.

Exhaust, STi rears and maybe crystals/diff grill/splitter to freshen up front?

My old WRX with a JUN Splitter, V6 STi grill, crystal fogs/indicators:



New UK Turbo with full crystals:

took this one tonight. i believe ive got clear side repeaters and indicator lights already, but you mean the headlamps being crystal. whats the difference. was thinking of facelift lights and grille but the same bonnet, as ive seen pics and it looks quite good.

Hi mate im sort of with Elmer on this one but what do i know.

My 1st scooby was a MY93 WRX and was stock when i first got it, it looked very simler to yours & ended up looking like the pic below.

Basicly i went do the full colour coded route, P1 wing, STi front splitter & anthricite prodrive rims ( i always think anthricite looks best on silver )

As for the graffix id loose them or go the whole hog & get the full set..

i see where your coming from mate. ive always liked gold wheels on a scoob, regardless of colour, and i like the ones now. has a mean streak to it with 16s i think. as for graphics, i dont want a full kit, just the odd "tasteful" ones, which imho i have. not ott and in black so subtle. looking at a splitter at the moment and will eventually have a colour code done on the rubbers and plastics round the bottom. but for now whatever money allows me to do, which is an exhaust...

points taken in the greatest of respect fella

Your doing it right mate.
The best way to mod a car is gradualy keeps the interest up & gives you something to aim for. Theres no better feeling when your cars at the point where you want it to be at & you can sit back & say you've done it your own way..

ARMEN..

Those driving laps are I think PIAA jobbies that come as standard with the RB5. Usually they are covered with colour coded plastic covers with RB5 stickers on them.
