My progress!
 
In May I bought a '97 Type R, which apart from the Tein coilover suspension set-up was pretty much standard....

Since then I have de-stickered it and spent a bit of money getting it more to how I want it to look! I've bought Blitz exhaust and dump valve, Version 6 spoiler, Inovit Redline wheels, clear front and side indicators and mudflaps.
This is how she's looking today after a good clean :D

looking nice , i dont like the wrx stickers on type r s ,why do they put them on, you would want type r or sti at least.

i keep telling my mate gold wheels on white cars look good, the only thing i would change is the bumper and get a facelift one and while you are there the grill and crystals.

ROB-THE-BLUE 09 September 2010 08:59 AM

Wow, thanks for all the comments guys! :thumb:

ironbridge 09 September 2010 03:56 PM

nice wheels man are they 17 or 18?

ROB-THE-BLUE 09 September 2010 04:16 PM

They're 18's mate :thumb:

Looks nice. I'd ditch the rear fog and put it in the rear cluster, will tidy it up (you can get red led bulbs for this) and get a Uk long rear number plate.

UK rear plate is my next small job to do on my list :thumb:

Then I'll begin the search for a decent facelift front bumper :cool:

gpssti4 10 September 2010 04:09 PM

Looks great - it would be my second choice in colour; black being my first, but this one makes me think ....................

gpssti4 10 September 2010 04:12 PM

I would fit a V5/6 grill and a light tint to the front windows and then probably leave it at that. Be different - don't change the front bumper, otherwise it just becomes another V6 clone. I changed my front splitter and now I'm in two minds as to go back to an original.

Macca88 10 September 2010 11:02 PM

WOW!!! that is gorgeous mate, absoloutly love these and would love to own one at some point, top work fella keep it up.

M444GY 11 September 2010 02:35 PM
