like your colour-coded skirts and front lip.
not keen on mud-flaps myself though.
if you're looking for a new mod how about the more 'aggressive' looking front grill. I think it sticks out a bit more and the shape seems to have a bigger 'grin' somehow.

Not much needs doing to that, as it's already been said, clear indicators and a version 5 STI spolier

I'd be looking to change the wheels, colour is okay just toooooo many spokes

I would leave the cosmetics for now and make it a better car to drive. Brakes and chassis mods will be money far better spent. The car is a stunner as it is.

Which route would you prefer to take?

My old DBM UK turbo had 17inch gold wheels on when I bought it... and so did my STi type R...
And on both cars I've replaced them, UK Turbo with 18inc OZ Chrono's in silver, and type R with 18inch Gunmetal grey PFR's...
You eva love or hate Gold... sorry...

I brought the rims from Barry At elite in Essex.... Only 2 weeks only!!!!!

I have to agree, I'm not a huge fan and I'm thinking of either changing them to 17" OZ SuperT's or do you think I should go 18"?

Did have 17" Prodrive speedlines on it but they were mullered.....

I went from this - standard apart from exhaust:




to this, OZ Super Ts (17s) that you have mentioned you were thinking of, crystal lights and STi rears. Have Eibachs but haven't got round to fitting them yet:





I know its not your colour, but might give you an idea.
