Default Facelift question please

looking to facelift a 93 sti2 wagon to a later front ie 99/00

I realise you need the following :-

Bumper
lights
indicators
grille
intercooler
bonnet & scoop

I think this is right !?

Anything I have missed ?

Also how do I change the the intercooler to a straight fit rather than a wonkey one ? What is required & is it easy to do ? Are there any other options other than a front mount ?

thanks

Paul

You got it right although you dont really need the intercooler for the visual facelift.

Also you can stay with your bumper if you wanted to.

how do you get the wonky intercooler to work with the facelift bonnet then ? do they match exactly ?

Presumably you cant keep the bumper as the indicators on a 99-00 are smaller

cheers

Ive did mine this time last year. Kept the old bumber and just did crystal lights bonnet,grill and scoop + ventsand de-tango's all round. Nothing to stop you also doing the bumper but I quite like the early bumper/jun splitter combination on classics. The bonnet will fit with the slanted intercooler without any problems. I've run mine like this for 12 months and about 8000 miles (driven reasonably hard) and not had a single problem with it.

Keeping the bumper is not a problem unless you want the indicators from a later classic on there, then you'd have to change the bumper.

Don't think that would be a perfect match.
