Default My car is nearly done

Hi

I posted on here a few months ago a few pics of my car halfway through all the work i wanted doing.

Well now i have 95% of it done and wondered what you guys thought of it.

She is a MY99 Sport.

Started out like this,




For quite a while looked like this, and this is how she looked last time i posted,




But now she looks like this




Just need to get my mirrors colour coded and some springs and she is finished.

I know it is a sport and some people will something to say about that. But she is my pride and joy and how she looks right now is exactly what i was after when i bought her and started to mod her.

Mods done

Exterior
Replica Version 5 spoiler
P1 Splitter
Full colour coding (soon!)
Crystal lights all round
Inovit 18" Tarmac's

Interior
Full MY2000 Turbo Interior (Seats and door cards)
MY99 Momo Steering wheel
Momo gear ****

Also-

Borla Un-equal Length headers
Cobra 5" Back box.


Dan

Nope, no turbo bonnet. It aint a turbo, so i aint gonna try and make it look like one with the bonnet.

The Borla sounds brilliant, well worth the money imo.

You have done a fine job, looks lovely

One or two peeps with a turbo are now doing the no scoop mod for the smooth look but you need a front mount for it.

No mate, sports come with equal length headers and only have a very slight burble. The Borla really emphasises it.

Thanks for all the kind words, it makes it all worthwhile. I know what some of your cars look like( ) and it means a lot that you think mine looks nice too.

Cheers

very nice. I remember when I had a Sport around 4 years ago. Was thinking of a Borla back then but didnt know anyone here in UK with one on.

I guess its a hit amongst the imprezasport.net community.

Danny have you seen that lads black 2.5 RS with the Borla on from america? I still have a video of his car

Yeah, a lot of the members on Imprezasport.net have them on. It really makes a world of difference.

I aint seen that video clip, but there are some good vids on IS.Net that made me want to get one.
