Not sure about that aftermarket splitter in the picture, there is a big gap between the bumper and the spltter so not sure what purpose it would have apart from looking good.

Good grief, 27.9 mpg! I am impressed with the 24mpg as well.
Mine is stuck at 21.6mpg

The splitter and fogs are essential. I like the grill as well, tempting.

I like your rally armour mudflaps, but I just watched the video to fit them and I think I will let the subaru dealership put on the subaru ones instead. You clearly have more skills and confidence with a spanner than I do.

Beautiful car man. Very nice.

This FRONT UNDER SPOILER and lower SKIRT LIP would look great on her.

Best of luck with it.

Its easy, must admit when I 1st saw the video thought it would be a nightmare.
Took me 30mins to do the 1st front one, had the other front side on in 5mins. Easy when I'd worked out what to do.

Back one are very easy, jack the car up and leave the wheel on. You will need a short screwdriver though.

If I lived closer I would of even offer to come and fit them for you.

IMO subaru ones are to narrow offering else protection.

I thought that too... but I watched the vid again (after knowing what to expect) and once you get your head round the task of removing panels..it's pretty straight forward.. so I've ordered mine.

That the official STI splitter? transforms the front profile, like the 03 STI one did!

Just seen this on Iain's website..

new Aerodinamic (smaller) wing mirrors for the JDM STI



Or are they aftermarket jobs (Like on the chargespeed car shown before (and again below))

Great job silver demon - these confessions from the diehard salooners is so refreshing - I'm starting to feel less like an outcast on here..

Moderators - when are we going to see a hatch option in the car icons?

Seems a lot of saloon owners are coming round.

Nice to see so many other 08/09 owners on here Haven't come across a WRX owner yet, which is strange with what good value they are at the minute.

I do like them smaller wing mirrors, look great. But as for practicality, them big dumbo wing mirrors as standard are great for visability. Can see loads out of them and see the difference when i get into the Legacy. Great looking car mate, well done. Had mine a year now and still over the moon with it!!!

Nice pictures and good spec for the Euro's - love the seats.

But............

As has been said many times before,you HAVE to see one in the flesh before you decide whether you like one or not.

They just don't picture as well as say the hawkeye or the blobeye for whatever reason.Looking at the pictures here i'd have said nice but not for me.As i've seen a couple in the flesh i know this will look nice up close - it's hard to explain.

Colour and wheels combination make a huge difference as well and the upgraded Recaro's are a must if you ask me.

Car's looking great. A front lip spoiler and lightly tinting the front windows adds a lot to the looks.

Very nice car.

You're kidding me... sorry to hear that.

Plenty of body parts you can sell before selling the STI though....

O.M.G

You can't sell yet. At least get the 1000 miles out of the way and have some fun.

Hope things work out O.K for you
