I'm in exactly the same situation with my 93 WRX.
I have been considering getting the grinder out and replacing the whole front end. But another idea came from Stuart Knight [stuart@skcl.demon.co.uk] I get the scoops made unpainted as there are so many different colours out there (plus I don't want the hassle of exact colour matching). As the production numbers are so low (I have the only pair at present!) they are expensive to produce, £160 a pair (plus postage). They take seconds to install, just lift the bonnet, undo the 4 10mm nuts that hold on the dummy vents, lift out the dummy vent and slot in the scoop. Tighten the 4 nuts and you are done, takes just a minute! You can still retain the blanking plate on the underside of the bonnet if you require. Stuart has a Website with pictues on it but I'm now undecided. Speak to the man it may help you, but its made it more difficult for me. Cheers Barge, Oh yes I'm a Stuart as well !!! |
Cheers Barge (why barge?),
I'll try to have a look at the picies, sounds promising tho'. (What's the web site address?) Tone. |
Barge,
found the website (http://www.skcl.demon.co.uk), the bonnet scoops look pretty good. A bit OTT for me though, i'm just after some vents that look like the current cars. Here's to hoping, Tone. |
I need help guys,
I've been thinking about trying to fit the facelifted front to a MY93 WRX but have been put of by the huge cost. I've seen a grill (thanks Richie) to fit the early cars that transforms the look ( alot more aggressive), very similar to the current car's grill. But... this leaves the bonnet vents looking very lame! I've tried , without any success, to find some vents that mimic the current cars look (the only vents avaliable seem to be for the facelift bonnet, 22B-a-like). There was a lot of response to the new style grill (from Revolution in Newcastle by the way) judging by the number of requests Richie had for a picture of said grill. So all you pre facelifted owners out there, anybody had any success in thi vent area? If not maybe we could get a company to manufacture some, there must be a demand out there? This would negate the need to change the whole bonnet and headlights thus saving much money! Anybody any suggestions? Tone. |
