Sorry, thats been ruined imho. The cereal box sideskirts and rear bumper extentions just scream out 'boy racer' to me, and do not suit the car one bit. If the skirts were standard or maybe 22B/P1 jobbies, and the standard rear spats were they instead of those abominations, I would probably feel differently.

Sorry, just my opinion

I really like it, its a change from the run of the mill tat or just standard look,
Its not OTT like some of the Kits are, ok it isnt STANDARD looking but at least its tasteful and you can see its been thought out not just driven thru a Ripspeed shop and everything is stuck to it like some.
all imho

I quite like it. There are one or two elements that are a tad too Fast and Furious, but overall it is a nice Impreza. I really like the colour.

Is that up for 2500 quid ?

If so that would make a great track car!

Or some one could bring it to blighty and break it, ill have the wheels!

Its got a State provided substitute VIN. I believe that this occurs when vehicles are registered without a standard format seventeen character identification number, but Im not certain.

It appears that that number doesnt bring up the correct details with eBay North America, defaulting to a 1980 registration (the first year that 17 character VINs were used)...
