Default Newby to the Forum as well as the Subaru community.

Hi there everyone, my name is Robbo and as you can guess i'm new here.

I own a 2006 STI Impreza having just been made swap my Focus ST3 due to having a baby on the way and requiring a vehicle with four doors. The wife said she didn't care what I got so I had to take the plunge and become an Impreza owner too having wanted one for so long.

Well, great to be here and hope to see you at some meets.

Here she is, I have bumper strips on the doors which the previous keeper put on but i'm unsure whether to remove them.

I'm also after some STI mudflaps too so if anyone has any bargains, get in touch.

welcome to scoobynet!!!
love the color, could do with the door strips removed, plus removing the pink sti stickers on the front would look better imo

Hi,

keep the front strips mate, my mates just fitted them to his 05 impreza albeit its in black but its individual and saves you from dings in the car park.

cheers

Cheers mate, think i'm going to; noticed a few scuffs already. Only on the strips though, not on the paint.

Everyone knows the silver one's are the quickest enjoy the car mate. Buy a rotty and strap it to the door handles. Try scooby clinic for the flaps they may cost a little extra but they are top quality
