My first car was a VW bora 1.8t I spent an absolute fortune on it.





Then bought a BMW 320d as I thought I needed a diesel but after lowering it, big wheels and remap it still Weren't for me.



Then I bought my first JAP car which was a 2005 Honda civic type R. It went well it was very fun to drive but didn't have the hit me back feeling.



So I bought this Subaru WRX with the Sti scoop, spoiler, and bumper. It's been remapped to around 270bhp and has a few things I noticed pro drive springs, exhaust, silicone piping in the bay, forge recirculating valve. So a good base..



Coilovers ordered and fitted...



Didn't like the silver so looked at my options... Paint job but then 1. It's expensive and 2. Selling would be a nightmare (change of colour and all that) Then I looked at vinyl wrapping. Cheapest quote was around £1200 but I'm a true believer you get what you pay for although wrapping was a better option than painting I came across plasti dip. Cheap, easy to apply and 100% removable so win win lol







Trip up to mid wales for a drive as you do lol



Ordered rota grids should be here any day now so they are next, then power. Not everyone will like the Plasti dip route iv taken but it's different and not permanent.

Let me know what you all think.

 

How did the plasti dipping go? Im suprised you went for that look though after seeing your other cars!

 

did'nt like the silver, so why buy a silver car

 

I was waiting for the "why buy a silver car" and the reason was I was offered the car really cheap by someone local. It has full service history, timing belt just done and already remapped so it's an 'ok' base to work with.

I always put my stamp on cars so il do the same with this. Once the Rota's turn up who knows I might rip the plast dip off(the current wheels look rubbish) I'm just playing around at the minute.

 

Wheels have arrived yayy

 

Nice looking car there mate !!!

 

wheels will transform it, think it will look well when they are on.

 

Thanks guys I hope the wheels will set it off!!! I can start under the engine bay next.

 

Look's good, hope you're enjoying scooby ownership.

 

I think the matt black looks good and you can always peel it off

 

Wheels fitted 😄

 

Wheels look Good matewhat size?SJ.

 

Thanks buddy I went 'safe' and got 8 1/2J ET44 with 225/40/18's but they fit really well I'm really happy with them.

 

Any rubbing?I doubt you should get any but I thought that I'll ask.SJ.

 

Only on full lock but the front is low. It rubs on the inner arch liner slightly.
