Default New Black Beast : MY05 STi
Hey guys,

Bought my second STi just under a month ago but haven't got round to taking decent pics until now. Hope you like!

It came as a 2005 STi, 29k miles, 18" WR1 style alloys, tinted glass, Ninja 2 backbox

Since i've had it, i've debadged partially, detango'd and blacked headlights, pink badges, fitted Tein springs, front splitter and cleaned it

Cheers chaps, all i've done so far is washed it and also used a clay bar, the paintwork is in pretty good nick, it's not done a lot of miles to be fair but i've still got to polish and wax it so its going to look a bit more shiny yet

These are some of the products I use, nothing special it's what you do with it that counts.

Spent a while cleaning the car properly today, photos from the start of the thread were just a standard clean and clay.

I've now gone over the car with SRP and also EGP (2 coats), windows done inside out, alloys done, tyres sprayed with simoniz back to black, interior done with turtle wax strawberry flavour so it now smells amazing!
