Slight accident today in my 05MY STI managed to kerb my front wheel whilst trying to get in a tight parking spot. grrrrrr.... I was not impressed! Spent the rest of the afternoon taking it out on the golf course splaying ***** in all directions. I cant even blame the wife for this heniuos crime at a later date as she was in the passanger seat at the time!
Do Subaru make a touch up gold wheel paint for the Standard STI gold wheels?
If not, what is the best one to get at Halfords....
Thanks
Paul.

I got an exact match from halfords ages ago, forgot to write down the code though
I spent a good 1/2 hour in the car park with all the paint code books to find a match. They mixed up the paint and put it in a rather handy dandy touch-up thingy.

Paul, there are some relatively cheap MY05 STI wheels for sale in the classified section - might be worth the investment? Mind you that'd be an expensive repair!

Sorry to hear that m8, my missus just got her new car, not a scoob though, and kerbed her wheels after 4 days.

Where do you play golf?

What if ?

"Motor World" (used to be called "Les Smiths")do a "touch up" pen called "Metallic Gold" it's just over £3 and is a perfect match on MY05 STI

If you can't do it yourself/find the right paint mate, try somewhere like littleknocks. They touched up a small scratch on mine (done by the previous owner...honest!) and made it look like new.
