Should have left it black,its soon gonna be totally mullered with stone chips

Agree with EF, would have been best leaving black. or paying extra for Carbon

carbon was coming out too dear and i didn't like the look of black on the white, too much of a contrast.

agreed i'll be on my hands and knees with a touch up pen most w/ends but how does that make it different to the rest of the subaru paintwork?

wasn't it you who had a recent front end respray elmer? we're fighting a loosing battle mate!

DJ73

could you not cover with a clear vinyl , could give a bit more protection

Barnesy

Cheep enough to get it sprayed every year.
Looks good in white.

Looks good mate- as long as you keep up the touchup it looks good colourcoded

Love white (girlfriend said no)

Come and see us at KentScoobies meets?

There's one this Friday!!

We're nice

Elmer Fudpucker

You ain't kidding!aside from the full frontal re-paint,the bonnet had been done twice previously due to stones that had actually dented the ally bonnet and that's despite always always leaving a massive gap between me and the car in front....all in under 20k miles as well

Admittedly your splitter looks spot on with the fresh paint

but my carbon one,despite its silly price,is still going strong after nearly 3 years and on more than one occasion has been used as a 'kerb alarm'



All the best,Jon

edit:go on paint them headlights of yours black

got to say it jon, there's not a single thing you've done to your cars that i've seen on here that i haven't been impressed with (IIRC you had an RB5 i've seen pics of?)

great look with the lights, again not sure with the black/white contrast but if you'll come round and do them i may be convinced you've got the sort of colour that'll look good with a number of ideas/colours but i think i'm a bit more limited with the white? (plus i don't have the ***** to rip open the lights yet, only had the car a couple of months!)

****e luck to need that sort of paint within 20k


trevor - will deffo go to a meet one day (only been saying this for years now) and if people there are half as friendly as on here you all sound like a good crowd

fridays in normally out for me as i normally play footie, but will try to get along one day though, cheers for the invite

iantype-r

car looks absolutly stunning mate, i agree with what most said that carbon or black would of looked good also, buts its down to personnel choice, still looks excellent in white though, nice 1 mate

cheers ian

Oddie

How did you spray your lights??

Woody1

Used to have a red front lip on my Supra. White should be fairly easy to touch up or respray your self as contrasts will be hard to notice. I used to give mine a respray every so often.

morpheus1870

Agree about the stonechips but it looks so much better when colour coded!

Suppose having a black scoobs helps



Great job, looking good!!!

WRX Bloke

How do you get your headlights black like that? They look proper!

Soulgirl

From the original pics.. much better but in my opinion, could have been 4 inches deeper

if i could have got carbon for the price i paid for the colour coded one phil, i would have gone for it

still not sold on the black on white contrast though.

wrx bill:- is yours a uk sti or import?
