Default debadged

finally got round to debadging my boot. really cant believe how hard the adhesive was to get off! i was at it for about and hour with t-cut and cloths. got most of it off and got blistered fingers in the process. but some of it wouldnt budge so in the end i had to use some of my precious tesco 99 from my jerry can to get it to shift! but i wasnt sure how it would react to the paint so washed it off in depth after and polished and waxed it to protect it.

problem now is i had a very clean boot and rest of the car was dirty so had to give the rest of the car a quickie too. what you think?

Really nice scoob mate, the boots looks a lot better without S U B A R U in crap plastic letters, wd40 I found to be most effective.

Did mine a couple of years ago, looks much better IMHO, I too found WD40 got the glue off easily.

Loving your scoob buddy, very similar in appearance to mine which brings this question. What front bumper is that on yours as the car I've recently purchased has got the same corner/side bits with the double bubbly bits but the bottom splitter bit doesn't run all the way from n/side to o/side if you can grasp what I'm trying to say. Sorry about the randomness but I'm very new to the whole Subaru world :-)

My mate Tam's car has the same as well. He seemed to think it was from the dealer?

I had to research about the bumper when i bought the car. Found out its a lester bumper/splitter. They are pretty rare from what i can gather

Agree with what has been said above, gives the rear a much fresher, cleaner look. Good job
