V3 type r graphics....
Hi all,
can anyone point me in the right direction for someone who can produce accurate rear quarter and the centre boot graphics for my yellow v3 type r? i know ICP still supply some but iirc the boot one is no longer available in the correct colour. I was never too fussed on the graphics but it’s been for sale for at least 4 weeks now and I can’t even get a single person to view it, so I’m hoping at least getting the exterior to look as close to factory as possible might help. i also need STI fog cover graphics if possible. many thanks Mick |

Isn't there a guy on eBay selling replica ones? How much you asking for it? As July and August are the worst months for selling a car apparently.

Hi jay,
i’ll have a trawl through eBay tonight, ICP have the correct rear quarter graphics for 80 quid so I might just buy those to keep it genuine. I honestly think the first person to view it will buy it, I understand the colour isn’t for everyone and most want the later versions but mine is a decent spec for a road car and it’s had a good chunk of money spent on it |
It's not an insane price but there's dealers with them listed at that price. Yellow isn't the most liked colour although I like it. Might be with putting £8,999 looks better. :thumb:

I’m doing the advert now with better photos, 8,750 ono
if it doesn’t sell I’m going to go 6 speed and brembos and keep it another few years, I don’t actually need to sell the car and I still enjoy driving it but i was offered a nice Porsche from a friend and fancied a change. cheers mick |

Whether it back in day when we all jumped onto Evos then sold them a few months later as they were boring compared to the Impreza’s (fun factor) or now where a few of us or jumping back on Impreza’s they are also starting to climb quickly in price. And according to a lot of people are turning into a investment. You have a rare car in a rare colour pal 100 percent keep it and sell it in a few years when it’s worth more and the Porsche has done nothing but deprecate. I sold my RA for 2500 10 year ago and believe it or not that was going rate. Last year it did 5500 on fleabay. |

Porsche 996 values are pretty low now anyway (it’s only a carrera 2 I’m looking at) so hopefully won’t come down to much....they have been climbing until recently.. im planning on doing more road trips over long distance next year and the type r is awful for long journeys the gearbox ratios are terrible for 70-80mph for any length of time, my brothers heavily into porsches so it’s something for us to do at a weekend really.

It’s stunning pal ticks all boxes for me only thing to let it down abit to me is wheels, unless there standered like that?
I buy a lot of cars (part of my job) black wheels on a car to me put me off them as a lot of time I just think they’ve been refurbed cheaply, stems back to when people just painted there wheels black because they were nakered and it hides everything lol. Not saying thats the case with yours at all and i genuinely think it’s a sound investment to some one. It’s got to be one of the rarest cars in rarest colour! |

They are indeed standard, as far as I’m aware it’s a signature edition, they came with the black wheels from Subaru, iirc signature editions are literally just a yellow version 3 with the standard wheels in black lol nothing more. i have a set of 17” gunmetal revolutions which I had on the car which look amazing but I’m selling those separate after the car has sold to claw some money back as it looks like I’m going to have to sell it for far less than I wanted if I do part with it. |
The wheels fitted are 18 x 8 Revolution wheels - not exactly a standard Subaru fitment - even for a "signature edition".
https://cbradleymotorsport.co.uk/med...te1_copy_1.png Indeed the standard wheels did come painted black https://www.dragtimes.com/images/761...ru-Impreza.jpg https://www.carsaddiction.com/files/..._Signature.jpg Is it also missing it's front lip spoiler ? |
Hi Don, you’ve looked at the original advert my friend, it’s on the standard black 16” alloys in the current advert (link a couple of posts above) my revolutions are 17” not 18”.
it is missing the original 3 piece splitter it’s been missing for 7 year at least but it hasn’t bothered me to be honest, I always intended to refit it if I could find one but they’re hard to find in good condition or silly money NOS. |
I see, maybe worth editing your #6 post and remove/change the original link to the new one to save confusion :thumb:
