hi,i seem to be missing the decal from the boot of my 1998 white sti type r.its the big "wrx" decal ,my question is,...... does anyone know what the exact one/colour is that i need to buy? and where from?ive looked at a few pics but none of them show up close enough to determine which colour/s it is?

 

Do you really like them ?

 

yes,trying to keep the car almost 100% original. i know some people hate them others dont,but i think the back end looks a little bare without it,im assuming mine has been removed at some point.

 

Quick look on google images at a couple of white Type-R's and it seems they're a green colour with cerise trim...

...then a quick look on eBay and guess what? I found what I was looking for. Internets great

if you read the ad mate,they are sold out of the one i need as car is white.

 

If you read my edit mate you would see I acknowledged this.

But no, don't thank me for actually using my head and finding out what colour they were in the first place for you. God forbid

You now know you need the one with a slightly darker blend on the upper and lower edges of the 'WRX' text. You didn't know this 10 minutes ago. No need to thank me you ungrateful ****

 

2004 i bought my98 sti type r in 406 silver and i wouldn't have bought it if it had the WRX sticker on the boot ! lol

Joking apart each to there own and the like, but dont think its a standered item as my old car never came with one on and that was imported from NZ.

 

First thing i removed when i got my car!

 

calm down mate,thankyou!
it wasnt ment to seem ungratefull,do know where i can purchase one?

 

oh really,i thought that these were standard as ive seen far more cars with them than without?

 

Personal choice i think think the small type r badge on the rear under light trim is surfice !

 

+1

 

Rcm sell them mate but they are not cheap. As said look on google, pistonheads for a white type r then buy the correct one from them.'personally would not buy one off eBay as they will be cheap copies or guessed sizes etc atleast from RCM it might be slim but a chance of an orginal or if not knowing the quality of thier craftsmanship it would be top copy

 

Look for the press release pictures and see what they had on the back, simple

 

thanks,just looked on rcm..... £40!!! wtf?

 

You can import them from Japan here:-

I'm fairly sure these are the original parts as well

 

thanks,but again prices seem rediculous......i refuse to pay £40 for a sticker!

 

Have quick look on Ebay 'impreza stickers'.
Person I bought my Type R from got a whole set for £40 not OE but very good quaity copies imo

 

You pay for quality mate, plus they maybe original rather then a cheap copy of eBay not in the correct colour or size but hey your call

 

this is all there is but "b" sticker(the one for lighter coloured imprezas are sold out) i wonder what the "a" sticker will be like as they dont look much different?

Cheaper ones here, but i doubt they are original

I bought my little Type R one from here and they were good, but that is a simple decal

 

oh and here, but not cheap, but probably oem or very good copies

that aint the correct one and the one im after looks slightly different! its the right price tho!

 

too expensive, i cant find one anywhere?

 

You don't really want one then !

 

i do,but not for £40!!! the ebay link above.....decal"b" is the correct one for a white car...must be able to get one from somewhere without getting ripped off?

 

or here

that ebay link doesn't work by the way. says item has been removed

 

Could try a main stealer. Doubt they would be £40.

 

wrong colour!

have a look on the ebay link that chocolate o brian posted
