Got to love the look!, so different from the normal Prodrives! well done for having the balls to be different and giving the purists something to moan about!!! :0)
Looking forward to seeing the new wheels fitted. Ricey |
Is the lip painted or pinstrip tape? Looks good.
Ricey |
Cheers Buddy
The Marmite sticker topped it off. I know a lot of people are like wtf? But that's kinda the way i like it. The lip is painted. I'm not sure if it's a bit busy on the front end. Might loose the Prodrive sticker and the STi fog stickers. Keep the Domo-kun. Will see how it looks with wheels on |
Yip i agree, loose the Prodrive and STi stickers ;0)

I don't hate it, but it does look like you're trying to hard.
Looks like you're copying the US cars trying to copy the JDM look, and for me doesn't pull off either.:) I agree though, well done for having the balls to be different, be boring if we all did the same:thumb: |

It's a bit of US inspired and JDM inspired. 90% of my browsing is done on US sites hence the inspiration. I agree a lot going on which is why i was going to calm the front end down. It is a Marmite car anyway being a Bug. I've had the car 3 years now and it's all about having fun with it. I guess kind of a piss take if you like. A lot of people don't get it and tbh possibly even i don't. Once the new wheels go on the front should calm down. There's some other bits to go on the front so the lines should run a bit smoother |

Well said! Ricey :luxhello: |
I think whichever way you look at it that is a nice car;) . Sure I'd get rid of afew bit's & change "this & that" but that's just my taste. I love your "Datum"? red rear tow eye BTW...it really goes nice with the rear bumper & the blue to. :thumb: Very nice Bockett
|
Thanks GM.
I totally understand it's a love or hate thing. I think i've been focused on getting the little bits that aren't common a bit to much like the angled number plate and Tow hook. Will see how things are in the next couple of week's |
What about some engine dressing??
Carbon fibre alternator belt cover for the Subaru Impreza - Carbon Mods :D so much to buy, so little time....and money ofcourse :thumb: |
Oh believe me i've seen that. As you say so much to buy, so little time
I'm a bit unsure with the engine i kinda like how it looks OEM. Maybe a bit of Carbon would be good but hey the list never ends |
I say it looks ok, various stickers are down personal pref but one thing i cant quite get is the number plate! whats going on! id put that on normally and car looks good :-) Id leave the Sti stickers but remove the prodrive one..
|

The trouble i have with some parts i.e. the number plate bracket is it's very JDM so something like that might look out of place over here yet on other international forums it's the norm. The main reason for it was it's different. As Budgie said this thread/car will grow over the next couple of weeks and again going for something different. With the percy plate if i change the layout to S900BY N i'm guaranteed a pull so keeping it standard and flat mounted looks poo. That said one of the changes that will be happening is around that area. Anyone who knows anything about the whole US thing will appreciate the change |
Nevermind the sticker's & people's fixation with the number plate (I think that look's good anyway :D) When I'm looking at the pictures & stat's, I see a 364.5 Bhp 360 Ft lb torque Subaru Sti with four point harness, great wheel's, uprated exhaust and coil over's....bet that's a great drive whatever it look's like :thumb:

I didn't bother to put decent rubber on the rear when it was due as i was toying with the wheel upgrade idea so i put some cheaper rubber on. Add to that the rear's have been pushed hard since the coily's. If i change my setup in the winter then of course the rear's will need changing. |
Stunning car :)
|

Getting some proper rubber next time bugger the cost:thumb: Edited :D |
You need good rubber.
Thanks for the comments guys (& gals) SCOOBYDC i am on BC coilovers from the SN Group Buy |
