Nope,no graphics for me.

I prefer the plain look,there are better things to spend your money on IMHO.I know it doesn't help you as you've obviously already bought them but i'd take 'em off mate.

So you'll be keeping the low spoiler and not fitting the front bumper pods or a lip spoiler?
If so good man

Scooby green, lose the graphics unless it's going to ruin your sponsorship deal.......

I agree too, as they say - the grass is always greener on the other side!
I had an 03 blobeye STI with those stickers on and removed them after 4 months.

only put WRC graphics on a car with the replica wide arches etc. Its worse then a standard 3 dr escort with a cosworth spoiler claiming to be genuine. Looks cack imo

Ive got graphics and wouldnt change them.
Dont think it attracts the wrong attention.
Thats would be the big exhausts that do that.
If you want a standard normal average car then buy a Mondeo.

The resaon we all buy Imprezas and the like is to stand our and be different, have a car that makes us smile. Why try and make your car annonymous? Is that why you bought it?

The graphics are the same as grills, splitters, bigger spoilers, wheels, exhausts etc....

i see your point but park your standard car next to a wrc car, you'll look like a very poor cousin. Spoilers, splitters, big wheels etc all have their place, as do graphics. But in the same way i wouldnt have a massive carbon rear wing (and i mean a proper GT wing) with steel wheels, i wouldnt have such massive graphics on what is essentially a standard car.

I see your point, but it is Highly unlikely my car will be parked next to a real WRC.
95% of the population who see cars that are done as replicas will never have been near a WRC so no one really will be any the wiser.

It really is personal prefference.
All my cars have stood out in different ways. This one stands out the most but really has the least done. I havent even gone for the big exaust on this one, people look anyway.

If all our cars were the same and we all did the same to them then that would soon end the Subaru scene. It would become Mondeo-ish possibly worse............................................. ........Vectra-ish
