I think it looks a lot better, much cleaner and newer. What did you change the headlights, bonnet and grill? What version are the new items from? From your plate yours is a Ver2 classic. I have a version 3 Wagon Sti, wouldn't mind doing something similar tbh.

Is the front splitter the one from ebay? The Type R copy 3 piece (actual 1 peice). Also what wheels are they, P1? They look good as well wouldn't mind a set, have bug eye wheels at the moment and the stock ones painted black

Keep it up like it

^^^ If yours has the same grille as the op, yours is a V2 like mine.

Phase 1 as op, Phase 1.5 new grille, lights & bonnet. Phase 2 gets the lot inc bumper

My V2 (phase one STi Wagon)




Looks like you done a good job speed.46

@ 53 - Doh your right it's the same Might get a front splitter like that, quite like the V4 Type R one I think that's why it looks so different. His headlights and Side lights seem to be different also, more crystal than mine. Are those P1 wheels as well? They look good. I also need to paint my grill

@ B4D - Just spotted your post, what bumper is that on yours? Seems to be same lights and grill with a different bumper and what looks like a P1 splitter? What year was th buddy looks ace

You have to expect and shouldn't get upset about the +ve and -ve opinions when you post pics of your car in a public forum though

If you like it that's all that matters isn't it?

P.S. I wouldn't do that to mine, but then I'm into the 'stealth' look. It looks good though and improves the look of an aging design IMHO (flame suit on).

Defo needs a 99> bumper and maybe a P1 or STi splitter with it.

Looks a bit strange have the 99> grill and <98 bumper.

Also I think they look a lot better with the standard bonnet grills. I've never been a fan of those 22B copies.

But your onto a good start and if this is how you want it then **** it it's your car, you do what you like mate.
