Default Rally rep or not

Probably been asked a million times but really fancy a full on sticker session

Any good examples of reps if so post the pics

And any recommendations around south Yorkshire to complete the task

please edit the first thread to say "OPINIONS NOT NEEDED" as if you dont , you will be inundated with .....

-chavvy
-its not a rally car

and the rest of general abuse that will come along shortly. Good luck.

Personally don't stickers on 'normal' Imprezas but have a look here for the Prodrive stickers

Since I've been on here I've only seen one 'replica' that I've said ,
" yea, that's been done well".

Every other car (and there's been many) have looked sh1te, really not my thing at all. Stickers etc should be left for race/rally cars that are actually sponsored by the company plastered all over their paintwork. Imprezas draw enough attention without the need for stickers and stars covering them.

Here's a link to the only car I've seen that's been done well. I'm not saying I like it but I can appreciate the work he put in and can see the detail he went to,

If your going to do it then do it right, not a half job like most on here as it will look crap.
What car do you drive by the way ?

Yep, that's a proper replica, not some green/silver/red etc. classic with a couple of swoosh stickers badly applied and a shopping list down the c-pillar

It's your car mate, do as you will.
Although you haven't actually asked for opinions, you seem to have more than your fair share

Just trying to find the photos of when he drove for Subaru as a good friend of mine worked for pro drive at the same time on the WRC
Says it was the only time he had ever been scared in a car when out with him on a reccy

Would only get it done if a full high quality graphics of the 2002 wrc car
Don't want the crappy eBay specials as it would just look gash
The cars look great as they are just kept clean
