Default A little change to the front end

Haven't really done anything to the car for months now, so fancied a little change.

Nothing major, but i think it looks better....

Before.....



.... and now.....

I removed the oval badge and the STI logo. Am keeping the STI logo, and the pink oval didn't survive the operation!

They are Chargespeed ones. Very good fit for an aftermarket item

Wheels are Rota Grids

Cheers for the comments guys. Was close to selling it a few months back (fancied a STI RA, Type R or P1), but have decided to keep it now.

Not too sure yet.
Got the wedding coming up in August, so have to pay for that before i can do any track days.
And Rachel is using the Impreza as a daily driver at the moment, so would have problems if it breaks.

Might do a cheeky evening session at Brands though

Do me a favour Gary would you send me the info on them, I'm going to do a CAI on mine and one option is to mount it straight in the oem cover and the other is to fit one of these, just wish to consider the options here.

With a few right mods I think they look spot on

I like the grille mods but think the blob bumper really suits the original fog covers. On the plus side though if you change your mind it'll only take a few mins to swap them back over.

I don't actually know who sell them, they were a second (or third) hand bargain!

Would definately be perfect for a CAI, i can get some better pics for you over the weekend
