Blobeye WRX owners - show off your pride & joy!!
I'll be soon joining the Blobeye (wagon 
) WRX owners club, so whilst I'm waiting and hunting through the ads, give me some inspiration!!
Standard WRX's fine, modded ones even better!!
I've got the obligatory exhuast/filter/remap planned for mine, but also fancy a few subtle body mods, without making it an STi a like.
From what I've seen I fancy STi winglets and splitter, black headlight mod and anthracite std wheels. I'm thinking that foglight covers look better, but I'd have to remove the STi logo's.
But I'm new to the world of Subaru, so show me what can be done

Very nice chaps - liking those
Grinch6301 - are those WRC-1's (and on yours Jamie?)? Looks great. YHPM!
Jamie - Again, looks great. I can't make my mind up, but I think the WRX does look better with the (plain) fog covers. Also, if they are WRC-1's then me personally I'd keep them over Rota's, although Grid's do look pretty nice. Excuse my newbness but does the 321/280 mean you have a switchable map? 280hp would be fine for me, but I was wondering about planning for a safe 300hp, so I guess that would mean fitting a VF34 and STi injectors?
T25 DOC - again, awesome looking wagon mate. Really like that! Are the fog cover intakes modded, or can you buy them like that?

The fog cover is a mod for air feed....car's running 342/320 on last rolling road, but this was when rings needed changing, heads were then skimmed, and headers wrapped so hoping may have pulled a couple more horses out of her....needs tweaking on the map... but also want rear calipers and some parts under bonnet powder coating .....it's all money money money...lol
321/280 is the horse power and then torque levels...

My wheels are 17 inch prodrive oz. there okay I just fancy a change it's either e 9.5 grids or the pff7s. Oh no I do not have the luxury of 2 maps. 321 is the bhp and 280 is the ftlbs torque! Yes 300 is a nice figure and much more fun to drive depends on how much you want to spend! Yes a vf34 or any of the vf series to make a nice 300+. Is your car standerd ATM?

Jay vr6 - looks awesome mate, as you say, the underskirts look good - first time I've seen those.
Matt23 - nice, love those spoilers (UK300?), wouldn't look so good on a wagon though, lol!

Urm well you can either get uprated discs and pads. I had a classic turbo 2000 and put tarox discs and pads on and there were amazing huge improvement. But if you want to spend a little more you can go brembos, aps, alcons are the way forward. You can get brembos 2nd hand for arou d 400-450

I haven't done a lot on the outside except detango, cold air feed, fog covers, mudflaps and tints:
Different story under the bonnet.
and coilovers waiting to go on

I'm getting the serious itch now!! Hope the guy coming to look at my 182 on Tuesday is serious!!
UK300_kev - looks great that, I've seen those pics elsewhere before. Is the scoop an STi one? Also, what suspension are you running?
