Re-badging MY05 STi Type UK..Pics Please
Please could someone post some 'square on' shots with a datum point of all the standard badging on their STi, with measurements if possible.
Boot: WRX Impreza STi Type UK Doors: STi Subaru Technical International. Previous owner has debadged all STi bits, even took front grill out... Dealer has ordered them for me. Thanks M |
does the dealer have a 05 in stock? if so park side by side and take your time.

The "A" is actually 44mm, so just let it overhang by 2mm each side. I used a length of white cotton stretched between the bottom corners of the clear part of the lights and then measured a centre, then marked it out as above. Before placing the letters I then taped a 2' steel rule under using the cotton guide line to rest each letter on and ensure perfect alignment. HTH |
Corrado Boy...
thanks for that...but it was the following! Boot: WRX Impreza STi Type UK Doors: STi Subaru Technical International. Only badges he hasn't taken off is boot Subaru and Grill badge Thanks again M |
Doh!

Found these.. hope it helps..
The 'Type UK' badge sits about 5mm under the STi badge on the boot below: https://www.scoobynet.com/images/sna...test/spec3.jpg You can just about make out the 'STi Subaru Technia International' sticker on the door... hopefully well enough to position yours anyways. https://www.scoobynet.com/images/sna...test/spec2.jpg (Sorry to post this... if it is your car - think it is Webmaster's car) Good luck! |
Cheers..!!
Dealer may want a go... not to sure... he reckons the backing is lined up so easy to fit... |
Yeah I'm sure the backing is shaped to fill the boot edge. Not cheap though to replace. I had to fit the SUBARU too which comes on a backing sheet correctly spaced. I went to a dealer, took some photos and measurements and used masking tape to get alignment.

hopefully this pic will help you get some ref points

The STI badge has a boot alignment backing and the door stickers have a notch in the backing so that you can line them up with the front of the door. I know this because I had to do the same thing on wednesday! I assume the other badges are the same.

Thanks to all who helped with this..
Notes: STi badge came with a template that lines up with boot lid.. Type UK didn't...and alignment is a bit random on the cars I have been shown/googled, maybe have been fitted at dealers/UK importers??? http://home.freeuk.com/wrx/sti/stibootsm.jpg http://home.freeuk.com/wrx/sti/typeuksm.JPG Door stickers are off Ebay, top quality...are handed for each side...the press cars I have seen on google images dont seem to be handed (ie STi at left on RH door and left on RH door??) Genuine ones are coming http://home.freeuk.com/wrx/sti/stiside.JPG WRX, Impreza badges have not come yet...dont know whether to Refit??? STi badge for grill on way.... Back to standard soon! Dealer gave me 2 extra STi fog lamp cover stickers...put one on the scoop.... http://home.freeuk.com/wrx/sti/stibonnetsm.JPG Again...thanks Mark |
Looks nice mate. Good work.
I bet that one on the scoop starts to bug u soon though ;) |
