Default Both my Scoobys!

First is my white 1996 Japanese Spec STI
Only downpoint (other than the paint) oil leaking from the valve cover gasket but not that hard of a fix!! FMIC conversion (not to thrilled about it but looks nice i guess)
Second is my custom painted purple 1995 Subaru WRX
MINT BODY and EXCELLENT PAINT JOB. Man who did it spent 600 hours on this paint and body kit install. Engine is mint. LOVE THIS CAR!!!
Everthing other than an upgraded turbo is stock so looking for some ideas!!

I like the roof scoop where did you get that from? And 600hours for paint job? Looks cool if you could ask how much he'd charge to do mine in same colour?

I would sell the purple thing on eBay it's frickin horrible, and invest the money in tidying up the white one.

I think he charges £20 per hour, I ain't doin the math but it works out pretty cheap, it takes him about a year but its defiantly worth it.

I think it's more the nasty body kit on the purple one that makes it look so bad.

White one looks tidy though.

The purple one is downright offensive to the marque! Total fail in every department!

8765.81 x £20 = £175,316.2

best start saving!

White one is nice but the purple one I think has been covered well enough above.

The thing is, it's not the styling in particular that offends me about these sort of cars (well it does offend me really lol) but what's more offensive is the fit/finish of these kits. Surely when you go and pick it up you take one look at the fit between the bonnet edge and the 'grill' and point out it looks like a 3 year old made it from playdoh.

Or was it 1hr slapping on the paint and 599hrs carefully shaping the top of the 'grill to look like waves lapping at the beach.

white looks really good,

not a fan of the body kit, why spend so much on a standard car? where you not tempted to get the motor done 1st to match the look?

600 hours to paint a car brown???

Do you not mean 60 hours?

As said I'd sell the brown/purple one and get the white one mint.

I like the white one, nice motor. Would be a good idea to get her fully up to scratch.

Not a fan of the brown one either it looks a bit Barry.

The only thing missing on that brown turd is a few stickers. Its literally got every cheap ebay mod going, you may as well finish it off with a few rally graphics.

White car looks ok though. Stick a nice jun style front splitter on it to improve the look.

Erm, the white one looks like it has a fair few bits of paintwork damage to it, needs a fair bit of love. No comment on the other one....
