it never ends
Both of my arch liners had been bodged to fit. so now i need two new ones plus clips to fit. Also where the bumper joins the bottom of the wings the small clips are broken also.
ICP here i come Monday morning |
Sorry to hear this Dave, at least the cars getting the attention it deserves in your ownership
|
what's this on? You need a build thread lol
|
I have ordered the inner arches + clips off ICP this morning. I need to find the two small plastic pieces that fit on the edge of the wings down towards the sills. They are about 4" long.
I might start replacing some of the joints while the car is on axle stands i think oem will be sufficient. |

I’ve heard he did paintwork with that scoop that was glued on or something...did he do everything else eg. Engine mods?

i had a reverse scoop on mine from RCM £££ I will say his workmanship was spot on . I am not blowing smoke but it was. Anyway lets leave sleeping dogs lie |
Ah gutted bud, did you sell it cheap? I really don't like breakers, unless there breaking rough or damaged cars, not good clean cars.

So Ryan bought the car after having done all the labour and bought it off Dave, then broke it?
Why does no one won't to sell me an Impreza cheap :( So why sell then buy another one? Sorry for all the questions, just interested.

Not even the half of it. A lot worse then that Johno. So Dave paid so much money to get the car built by him too. Majority of the work was done by him so he knew the money, effort etc (although the labour was his) and then broke the car. Wasn't he on the forums too. :wonder:

I needed to raise some cash to buy a Toyota Rav. We were buying an Alaskan Malamute puppy. Big dog needs big car.
Anyway I don’t like having things on the drip so needs must. I had other cars but missed the Subaru. Golf GTI edition 30 DSG. Bmw 2.0d estate Focus st Bmw m235i missed the Subaru,this one came up with the TDR 2.1 stroker which had done low miles. I went to see it wearing rose tinted glasses. It’s only as I look to renew/ improve I come across previous owners very poor workmanship. I will get there in the end. 👍 |
Don't be mad at yourself mate, There will be bits you need to change if you want to get it back to showroom condition, after all these cars are getting on a bit in age.
