Default My MY05 STi to date
Had her for 3 years now, was an ex demonstrator Euro Import from Germany. As I bought her




I wasn't a big fan of the badges, gold wheels or the ride height so...... debadged, swapped the wheels, lowered on KW's and added a couple of Stiffi's






I swapped the front seats for MY08 STi ones, which are much more comfortable on longer journeys!! And Lee (Catalunya172) Recovered my rear seats and door cards to match






Then more recently I decided to remove the rear spoiler and add some ventilation









And my favourite pic so far



Merv
