Introducing my technicolour dreamcoat!
As a few of you know, when i bought my wrx it had been fitted with a bodykit by the previous owner, I liked it but was never 100% about it. At the last couple of meets i've been pondering the idea of stripping the kit off and putting the car back to standard. I finally decided to go the full hog and facelift it. Following Simon's (SSS) advice i decided to go down the version 6 route, which involved changing the bonnet, front and rear bumpers, side skirts and grill, i also opted to fit the bumper spats to protect the bodywork from stone chips. Also had to change the exhaust backbox as the last one was fitted custom to the bodykit bumper. Here are the before and after pics, the latter nearly ready for painting.
Before:
And as she is now:
Skirtless at the mo.
Rear V6 bumper with spats fitted.
All to be finished in 262 Silver. Also going to fit STi rear lights and a v6 spoiler.

Jarvis (Scooby401) is going to spray it, can highly recommend him as hes carried out a repair on it before when some druggie kicked it, and fair do's you'd never be able to tell. He also works for a main dealer so you'll have peace of mind with warranty Daz.

Very nice mate 
Classics should be classics and not plastered in naff bodykits.
Just be sure to swap the rear lights out as well

Ye defo, got further plans already. Going to paint the intercooler when its back, was toying with black but i think i'm gonna do it silver now to keep it more subtle and for cooling purposes as black attracts the heat.
