Wide Impreza
 
Hi, every one, i have just spent the last few weeks changing my Tommy Kaira wrx sti into something a bit different. Because these days all you see is Imprezas that all look the same but still very sexy!!
So i changed mine a little made it wide and put the sti8 scoop on the front, going for the respray on monday

Would like to know what you lot think of it, be nice:lol1:

Its being resprayed 406 silver which is the same

Puppetmaster 04 December 2006 03:12 PM

Looking good mate ;)

hamer001 04 December 2006 09:22 PM

Cheers keep the replys coming
 
they are the only pictures i have at the moment but i will keep them updated as they get taking!! ABW has a few pictures of it on a impreza and i must say he did a wicked job

good effort ABW:luxhello:

Looks good I would go more radical with the paint myself silver with a drop of reddish blue flecks or something different????

p.s. mine is reddish blue :)

pippyrips 05 December 2006 09:09 AM

love the wings, not so keen on the front bumper/splitter

EOEUMC 05 December 2006 09:35 AM

That looks like it’s going to be a beast m8 :D
I agree with the colour though! Silver wouldn’t do it justice! You would be better having a flip/fleck/flakes put in it. With the extra curves on the car they would stand out and look great:thumb:

Puppetmaster 05 December 2006 01:20 PM

Was looking for kits the other day... I can't remember the site unfortunately - however, I came across another wide body kit for Impreza.
It was made by a company called Trial and if memory serves it was around the £6000 mark.
Has anyone heard of this company or kit or am I hallucinating and totally misread the price ? :o

hamer001 05 December 2006 08:31 PM

wooowww
 
well to me that sounds a stupid price as you can get a 22b for around 800 and they are very good, oww the only prob i had with the kit was the spacers being 20mm on the front and 40mm on the rear but it looks the dogs just out Kei race wheels on to so its getting there but keep your views coming

ABW 06 December 2006 06:48 PM

more pictures please !

drb5 06 December 2006 08:05 PM

That's the Storm kit blended in yes?

Often thought about that kit myself, but the front bumper put me off a bit.

Liking the look so far, but we DO need more pics.

:cool:

hamer001 06 December 2006 09:22 PM

more pictures are Due
 
Sorry there are more pictures on the way but i spend so much time on it its dark by the time we finish. But i must Give a massive thanks to my mates

Adam and lloyd because they are doing most of the work and they are amazing, so if your ever in Wales and you need body work done give them a call, they have only just started a bodywork shop but the cars they have done are wicked!!

Keep your comments coming, will hopefully be on the road in a few days tme so if you see me give me a flash

it is that price. but you get what you pay for. all top end kits are expensive. eg veilside. if any one has seen the maxpower video beasts from the east, there was one on there. i havnt heard from them since though. quality kit, looks awesome. would love to see one in the flesh.


yes hammers car has a storm kit, wide arch version.

Puppetmaster 07 December 2006 01:36 AM

Just thought I'd double check. First time I had seen it and to be honest first time I had heard of the company so was curious!
I know what I'll be getting when I win the lottery. Or sell my house...

drb5 07 December 2006 07:34 AM

Ah Trial....awesome! :D

If your talking about the yellow 2 door, then yes i've heard about it and seen the pics. Never seen one in the flesh as i doubt anyone can afford it, but then you KNOW no-one will have the same car. ;)

Warwick-hunt 07 December 2006 10:12 AM

just needs 22b vents now :)

Puppetmaster 07 December 2006 12:31 PM

Yep - it was the yellow 2 door I saw ( not in the flesh unfortunately) - although they do a 4 door kit as well :D Apparently!

GeoffMM 07 December 2006 04:50 PM

looks good, you have to find the right balance between standard and / chav mobile, bright orange is a definate no no

hamer001 07 December 2006 10:02 PM

Paint
 
after a long look around i have decided to go with a nice silver because i dont want a chav looking thing so silver will set my gunmetal wheels off so that is the final thing and its in this very minute getting ready hehe cant wait more photos being posted this weekend for you lot

Puppetmaster 08 December 2006 01:28 AM

Looking forward to pics mate :D
Any chance you can send me those pics of your old body kit + a price?
Cheers ;)

LIKEIN THE WIDE KIT, What goes in the holes next to the fog lights could you cut the corners out of a classic and fit them in the holes or is it just going to be the halfords mesh it will be the finishing touches that will make the car
will keep an eye for the update pics

KIPS:thumb:

hamer001 09 December 2006 11:50 AM
