I don't know what I want if I am really honest

Although I like the Prodrive

Stealth and Shiney is appealing

Or should I stay IN YOUR FACE

You have a massive pink sticker that says STi written down the side of a white car. Someone who is a complete layman to anything subaru or rally commented after seeing it "Gangsta ... does that guy work at the clinic?" I pissed myself and asked what the **** he was talking about, to which he replied "He is driving a white car with the initials of Sexually Transmitted Infection written in pink across both sides!!"

Perhaps you should just put it back to the way it was!

PMSL!!!! What a question to ask!!!!!

As for the stickers Phil, I have always prefered a stickerless car (No offence to anyone who has got stickers!!) I now have Robbie from Essex Subaru Breakers trying to convince me to have graphics similar to Tomski's!!! But I like the pure white, clean look!!! So back off!!!!!!!!!!!!

Phil,

I think a nice custom graphics job would look great....
I know the stealth clean look is nice and all respect for those that keep theirs that way....
But for you, i think you like a more individual in your face personal touch.
So a custom graphics job, not just a standard rally kit would be my vote!

I still have people constantly saying to me, who is the guy in the white car with.... or who has this look on their car...
What ever you say or think about graphics, they do make the car stand out and make people notice. Bearing in mind, most of joe public wouldn't know the difference between one model of Subaru to another!
