Thanks for the comments mate appreciate it. Few more bits to come yet, looking out for more carbon bits, lowering and rear diffuser!

But just booked a wedding on Monday for next Feb so may have to curb the spending lol :thumb:

Looking really nice fella, got some Supertones here ready to go too. Had a few problems with mine but working through them. New clutch, Turbo and exhaust system so far. Up pipe gasket blew out on mine now to waiting for genuine replacements and will back on the road. Need to update my little project too soon hehe. Look forward to pics of the upper roof spoiler fitted when its on too. Keep it up buddy and congrats on the wedding too :thumb:

EssexJamie 29 December 2013 11:27 PM

Oh sounds like you've had a a proper welcome to Subaru ownership there mate lol!

Least your getting it sorted and it will be all good once done!
Thanks on the wedding costing me some big £££.
I've got some part stashed away now to get on with when I get time.
I've sold the roof spoiler on now didn't like the look of it when I had it mocked up, just looked weird with the Prodrive spoiler. Made £80 profit so happy days haha!

Get some updates going mate ;)

Aye proper welcome lol :wonder:

Wasn't sure about the upper roof spoiler thing either hence asking about hehe but you answered that one for me, good job on the profit thing too. Always nice when you actually get money back from anything Scoob related lol. Yes will get some pics etc this week and update some stuff. Got head unit, speakers and some other bits sorted now so moving forward again at long last :thumb:

Stay safe fella :)

EssexJamie 30 December 2013 01:37 PM

You to mate, I will look out for some updates from you ;)

EssexJamie 12 January 2014 03:07 PM

Didn't know the bug and blob had different bulb fittings so my Silvervisions indicator bulbs won't fit so will have to order new ones!
Now to get my Blob rear bumper sprayed and fitted!!

JonMc 12 January 2014 06:36 PM

Great mod ableit very subtle on a bug:thumb:

MedicInAUK300 12 January 2014 07:11 PM

Now I like those J, any mods to the bumper needed at all. Going to pinch this one ;) :thumb:

craigybaby 12 January 2014 07:17 PM

Much better mate :thumb: blob lights are the best for a newage imo

EssexJamie 12 January 2014 11:12 PM

Thanks guys really like the look of it!
Chris not really a lot of people put the rear blob bumper on as they have the precut semi circle in them for the lower part of the light.
But I just removed some off the foam on the lower part of the light, pushed the light right up held it there whilst I bolted it back up and it stayed there! No gap underneath the light either :)

Although I do have a blob rear bumper ready for paint if I decide

MedicInAUK300 12 January 2014 11:16 PM

Nice thanks J, just been pm'ing Matty@MB so hoping he will have some in in the next week or so. May change the bumper at some point as sometime during my Bugs life it's been reversed onto a post so has a little crease in the middle. Two birds with one stone and all that ;)
Do like the look of this :thumb:

EssexJamie 13 January 2014 01:22 PM

You won't go wrong with Matty I've bought a few bits off him very good service and always describes them accurately!
Yeah it is a nice easy subtle mod I think!

http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...ps6b7dbfc9.jpg

Not really sure about it lol, but it's not like it's hard to just whip off and sell on!
Might look better when I get the rear diffuser!

tattoosi 21 January 2014 04:55 PM

Thanks slowly getting there.

Only down the road then just down the a130 spent a lot if time in silver end when I was a kid lol

AzzDSM 28 January 2014 01:11 AM

Nice bug looks clean with subtle mods :thumb:

Is it me or is the boot slightly not sitting right?

EssexJamie 28 January 2014 05:21 PM

Thanks mate, boot seems fine in the photos above i didn't shut it completely! I couldn't be bothered to keep unlocking it lol

AzzDSM 28 January 2014 09:28 PM

http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...ps62623365.jpg

This is the pic that i noticed. seems theres a bigger gap between the light and the boot on the n/s.
Looking at it again it may be just how the light is sitting.
anyway im just picky and with the car being so clean it would be something id have to sort if it was mine lol

EssexJamie 28 January 2014 11:33 PM

The passenger one isn't screwed in on that pic ;)
Forgot to put the little locating tab back in.
This is how it sits when all bolted in and boot shut:

lottielee 12 February 2014 11:39 AM
