No just ducktails - Full stop. And most seem to be applied using wood screws. I can't wait for the cream to rise to the top like classic Ford's.

It's a drift scene thing, ultimatly replacing the good old BGW. Nothing wrong with a diddly one (like the one below for the GT86) but the big ones (like the pics you posted) just look odd.

Quite..
1) My opinion of modding is that it should look as absolutely stock as possible...If it doesn't look OEM, don't do it, or do it better until it does..UNLESS it will only ever live on a track. Don't bodge mods...They are ALWAYS pathetic and reflect just as badly on the driver.

2) Any modding should be done to the highest performance and aesthetic standard as possible, and with a quality that is AT LEAST as good as OEM...
That means no hydro dipping fake carbon or peeling graphics.
If you can't afford to do it properly DON'T DO IT, and wait until you can.

3) Stock rocks....Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow..but the day after tomorrow people will wipe a tear of nostalgia away from their eyes when they see a modern classic such as the Impreza still on it's skinny factory wheels and proudly showing off it's dolby C cassette player.
