Very nice indeed!
I like the detail at the front- white grill, white morettes, white head lamp surrounds. Mint! Would you consider white alloys? I think it would look allwight!

Thanks for the comments

The job was a complete rub down with all doors, boot and bonnet removed. All door sills and inside of boot were sprayed new subaru pure white instead of the original feather white (much brighter) . All the work took three weeks and cost me two grand.

Cheers

It's a WRX instead of the STI which comes with the roof vent. I though I would save a little money buying the WRX over the STI. But ended up replacing the whole engine and gearbox anyway as the car hadn't been cared for by it's previous owner. So much for the saving!.

Looks absolutely mint, love the P1 front end.

Car looks stunning John. Well worth the wait . Perhaps you can drive to this weeks meet and i can have a few beers for a change lol. Fair play Mals done an awesome job. Mines booked in for about 2 years time that'll be about how long it wil take me to save.

Cheers gents, all the hard work was done by Mal at Mals Auto Sprays in Talbot Green. He's done a few cars for me and they have all been finished to a high standard. I'd recommend him to anyone.

Anyone know who it belonged to ??

I remember seeing it on here a long time back and have always kicked myself for not saving all the pictures at the time.... any more about do you know ?
Was it a Ford white ? I remember it was not a standard colour at the time.

Haha, we'll see Simon... I think/know that mine will be a lot more subtle than that one though!!

£1500 for a custom side exit system...... ouch...... bet it sounded amazing though!!
