J200WRX you are missing the point; if you don't want to hear negative opinion don't post it's a (well relatively these days), a free country so lets all have our say and if you aren't tough enough to deal with the arrogance, (or is that just a different opinion?), don't post
i expect critism and i welcome it but i dont expect to be called a chav or that have ruined a drivers car by putting some green light in my engine bay seems a little much lol but i take the other opinions on boad with not having h elights in the grill and will try it out

lol you need to take a step back from what you are doing and then compare it with the majority of cars on here...that should give you an indication of how your neons will be received

I think you are missing the point; its all good that you want to do that and you should be able to do exactly what you want...it is your car after all But by that same token you have to be prepared for people to dislike it because its your taste not theirs and being a public forum they have the right to shout about it

tbh if you aren't tough enough to deal with a little name calling then you best sell the car, especially with neons fitted...most of the 40+ers are having a mid-life crisis anyway

i guess this is a lot about how you define a chav...most on here would use it to describe someone whose car mods are what they consider to be tacky. Examples of chav mods, imo are flamer kits, anything that lights up on the outside of the car that isn't an head\rear\side\indicator lamp and Lex-****\after burner rear lights...pointless mods in other words.

echo the above, well said

i was looking through pistonheads last night, and found this...
Subaru : Subaru Impreza WRX "Top UK Show Car"

link to his personal website... Model

muddies car. now to the o.p., that is a real show car, a concours standard show car. that is how you are slightly different without going chav tacky with your mods.
