Busted the piggy bank! (STi content)

[Moby]

I recently cancelled my order for a Focus RS and decided to blow the cash on mods for my STi.

A few online purchase and then a quick visit to see Iain Litchfield and a few quid later and this is the result:

• Private plate
• STi centre caps
• GT Yellow Headlight Armor foglight covers
• Window visors
• Type 20 handling pack including AST coilovers
• Alcon 365mm six-pots
• JDM wing mirrors
• Maserati style rear lights
• Cosworth air filter
• Forge front strut brace

I'm really pleased with the results. Car is transformed dynamically and visually. Maybe still not everyone's cup of tea tho.

You've made an ugly car look pretty good! Nice one.

 

[fezsi]

I love this shape of subaru!

Looks mint and very tasteful mods!

 

[john182rs]

I actually found a scooby poo that i like, spot on!

 

[Paul.]

as per text mate - awesome!! I can imagine pics do this no justice because before the mods it looks far better in the metal than pics suggest. LOVE it!

 

[Beef-Mc]

Lookin good, those 6Pots are quality.

 

[Englebert]

You've done a great job mate, well done! Wheels and lights look ace. As said, you've turned an uggo into something genuinely handsome.

One last thing though, does anyone do black versions of your exhaust surrounds? In an ideal world, i would revert to a classic single exit personally.

 

[Moby]

Thanks guys - i'm so chuffed with it.

Rob - you can get carbon ones from HKS but I'm think of replacing the whole diffuser with a carbon one from Chargespeed.

I seen this plate before used to be on a nissan 200 this a while back

 

[Englebert]

Diffuser sounds good.

Realised i've been too nice though, WTF is that plastic s**t around the windows? Get it off son! Makes it look like a cheapo import...

Nah mate; not me - must have been a similar plate or someone surrendered it.

Diffuser sounds good.

lol - i'm not too sure about them myself. Really distracting too when you're driving.

really like the new rear clusters looks very oem and amillion times better than the original ones. Only thing i'm not sure of is the fogs but i suppose thats ajdm thing yo!

I need some air deflectors, dunno why but i think it may suit the rally **** thing my cars sort of developing.

I wasn't a fan of the new Impreza when it first came out. It's definitely grown on me now though and that looks awesome.
