I think that's the Prodrive styled STi type UK mate. Tres rare.
I managed to get a grille off of here, but no idea where you will get the fog covers.

Standard Subaru part £160 + VAT IIRC

Bumper will be GASP ! expensive tho'.

Maybe try the breakers ?

yeah, deffo the Prodrive 'style' STI. Going to be very expensive to retro-fit....

I'd be very surprised if you managed to find a bumper at the breakers, its normally the front end that gets wrecked in the first place

Thanks lads, that's a shame. I think that's the best looking front end i've seen on a bugeye.

Thanks for the offer, I already have some standard ones awaiting spraying. Just thought the ones in the pic looked amazing.

i have a black prodrive sti bug. i replaced the bonnet with a carbon one and did the morette headlamp upgrade. I am dubious about the bonnet cause it's a smaller scoop. what do you guys think?

I'd have kept the original headlights mate - I think they look better than the Morettes - but you're sooooo lucky to have the Prodrive styled one!! I am very envious .

Strongly considering changing my STI7 skirts for a set off an STI8 as aren't they the same as the Prodrive ones? (seeing I can't find a front bumper...sniff !)

Thanks mate. I have kept the old smoked glass projector headlamps so can put them back on anytime. I like the morettes though. It's just the bonnet I am unsure of.

But my problem is as soon as I finish something on the car I am already starting to think of what I can do next!

I have that problem too - combined with the existence of 0% interest credit cards, it makes for a life of debt

SRB Power web site !

A reverse scoop allows heat out and doesn't try to rip your bonnet off at high speed....

NEEDS A FRONT MOUNT INTERCOOLER THO'.

Im doing this and about to cut up a spare Prodrive bumper

Had a little fiddle about with this this morning.

Just a dummy run so i can get everything sitting right, cut the relevant areas etc, get the spare bumper cut and then get it all painted.

To say this thing is rather large is a little understatement and it looks like it will take 10bar lol

Sorry for the fone pics, but thought the weather was too nice not to take a few.
