hi all, i keep looking at my car and wanting to do something to it but i dont know what..so what you you do if it was yours?

 

hmm tbh it looks amazing! Id be tempted to do the wheels white tho...

 

ive thought that myself or anthrite

 

As above i say it looks sweet as it is , agree with the dark wheel idea though. Only thing i'm not convinced about is the splitter on the front bumper. Looks wrong somehow cant really put my finger on why just dont think it suits the car tbh.

Wrc front bumper and rear window spoiler perhaps ?

 

like the rear window spoiler idea too

 

Fins in the rear Spoiler would look good on a white car

 

bigger scoop on the front maybe?

 

Rear diffuser.

 

Blobeye rear light conversion??

 

Rear Diffuser (HT Autos Carbon), change the rear lights to blob or clear/red. White's look amazing on the WRC front bumper (if you can get the l'aunsport one with the carbon lip).
Burnup carbon front lights to go with the bumper.

 

Keep the wheels as they are - looks a good contrast with the colour.
BUT I would say get some STI headlights mate - they'll finish the front of the car far better than the WRX items. Either that or do the black light mod on your OEM items.
UK300 splitter or a prodrive bumper would probably look nice too.
And as bluebugeye says, blobeye or hawkeye rear lights - I've seen a white bug with hawkeye clusters and they look fantastic.

 

Im a big big lover of this car. IF you wanted to chage the look this would be my idea to mix it up

front lip painted black to break the front up more
sti headlights or as Giles said, do the black out mod
paint the top of your spoiler black
rear windor spoiler perhap in carbon
tinted windows but not dark
if feeling crazy go for the wrc vent at front of bonnet like wms scooby on here
wheels dark

I know this would change it alot but if you change it a little, might aswell go for it imo

BUT did i mention that i love the look of this car as it is?

 

will the blov rear light go straight on or do i need the blob bumper too, whats this wrc bonnet vent? not seen one of them..and how do you do the black out mod on the lights?

 

this is the cheap crap version but you can get them in carbon, and when molded into bonnet look quality

Agreed!......

 

You'll need the bumper too buddy!!

 

Hhhmmmmm, tis a very nice Scoob, you could consider these...


*STI Headlights (your need a wiring loom to connect them up I think, which are available on the net)

*STI Fog light Covers
*STI Upper bumper grille to go with the lights
(old piccy of mine)


*HT Autos rear bumper Diffuser (carbon or plastic)
*Paint the front bumper splitter black, will look better than the white
*Bigger Scoop
*Paint upper part of rear spoiler black

 

If it was mine I'd do all of the following:

STI headlight conversion.
Take the front splitter back to black.
Change the wheels for something anthracite or black
Add a hawkeye roof spoiler - white ends and a black/carbon blade
Change the rear spoiler for an S202 carbon one
Change the scoop for an STI7 one

 

Only styling mods? Are you happy with the power and handling?

I think the wheels would look good in black, and the Blob rears would look good too.

Please don't change the scoop though, the Blob STI ones look crap on anything other than an Blob STI in my opinion.

 

De-spoiler it

 

Right - deep breath - essay post coming mate

Some eagle eyed people on here - I totally agree that you should get:
- An STI scoop
- The later spec STI grille

My car has both of these on if you want to compare - see my garage.
Are your mirrors white or black btw? One white bug owner painted his mirrors black - subtle, different and looks nicer I thought.

Re the blobeye rear conversion I wrote a guide on how to swap em - you just need the clusters and the bumper and fixings for the bumper.

It's a fairly straightforward job although it's worth getting a mate to help to avoid potentially scratching the car when offering the new bumper into place.

The main problem I had believe it or not was sourcing a blobeye rear bumper - they don't come up all that often. I ended buying a slightly damaged one for £45 and then had it completely sanded down and resprayed by a bodyshop.
Honestly though mate Hawkeye clusters will look FAR better on a white bug than the blob ones.
I FINALLY found the link I wanted to post here - v.clean STI nice car:

and this is how they look:


You can also check out scoobyphotos.com for some ideas; few I saw:

One here with the black light mod.


Despoilered one here:


I personally don't like that look though and some people say it makes the car a little more skitterish at high speed.

Wulsey's white bug also has the carbon spoiler Dave mentioned - see this thread:

I think the car looks amazing as is, but I do agree that white wheels would look great.

 

- wheels refurbed in white
- STI headlamps (or morettes maybe?)
- STI bonnet scoop.

Job done.

 

looks bang on as it is - maybe go for gunmetal wheels - white might be too much

 

Sti head lights
Sti fog covers

just sti headlights, and a blitz nur spec
tbh, i think the bugeye rear lights looks nice, i did a full sti8 rear swap on mine and it cos me quite a bit (including carbon rear diffuser)...i should have used the money for some bigger brakes

wiley

 

How much it cost you Wiley and are you talking spoiler as well as bumper & clusters?

I think bumper and clusters conversion cost me around £160 including the respray.

 

Am i the only one who thinks the bugeye taillights is better looking than the clear on the blobeye and the lexuscrap on the hawkeye? Keep the taillights IMHO.

I would get STi headlights, WRC/prodrive front bumper or only foglight covers if you can't afford the bumper, repainted rims in gunmetal or white and maybe WRC S7-S8 styre mirrors.

 

Yep

Although the blob ones are much nicer than the hawk efforts
