I,m with Anger on this one.


The car does not need any side skirts, spats.......and please dont put a P1 front lip on it...if you want a lip go for the version 6 front lip

Car looks great as it is...

From an Ra purist.....

Bloody alot of negative comments about the skirts and spats, dont see the big deal meself, i like um so there going on its still an RA. Still not sure on what lip to go for version 6 does look good

Well if i dont like the skirts or spats i can always take um off, the version 6 front lip is nice but if i just put that on wont the bumper sit lower than everthing else?

The sti 6 front lips look really good on a skirtless Ra.....P1 lip would look a bit odd obviously.

Nothing wrong with the P1 lip.....when its on a P1....

Plus not sure on what you will need to fix skirts on...i assume you will need to drill the sill to attach so maybe not easy too remove..

End of day its yours ..... so as long as you like it jobs a goodun.
