It's a slight improvement over the top pic, but the rear wing looks daft.
The first pic is so bad that if I worked at TSL I'd get the decals removed ASAP 'cos I wouldn't want to be associated with it - it's a fooking embarrassment.

headlights on 2nd pic make it look like a beamer.
What is this obsession with headlamp converions? Unless you have a bugeye don't do it! Car designers spend ages perfecting the look of a car, then some muppet decides they know better and changes half of it.
Both cars look w@nk.

Have to say I do, pretty much, agree with Messiah.
Whilst I understand the arguement that the 22B was a showcase for the huge range of styling options available through TSL, I am getting a little concerned that their, hard earned and IMO well deserved, image as a hugely respected tuning company is taking a bit of a self-inflicted knocking by this strategy of throwing as much plastic/carbonfibre/vinyl at company vehicles just to create a stir.
I personally have spent a lot of money at TSL since I bought my first Impreza about 18 months ago, something I hope to carry on doing in the future.
Within a month or so of starting out on modifying my car it became clear to me that TSL had the one of, if not the best reputation as a Subaru specific tuning company. I now find myself worrying that if I had only recently bought my 1st Impreza I would be slightly put off by a increasingly Max Power image.

MONEY - I hate to admit it, being a Subaru owner myself. But if the Evo 4 is anything to go by, the 5, 6, 7 and 8 must be awe inspiring when driven hard.
But I like my scooby better as day-to-day use car - wouldn't want to have to drive an Evo everyday, unless I could afford the weekly chiropractor appointments.

That's almost as bad as the 22B. It's let off though by the fact its a normal Evo, and you've not gone out and destroyed a classic.
Sad to see TSL, a respected tuner, go down the Max Power route IMO.

It might be hard to tell from the photos..and to be fair, you may not know, but the reason for the strange lights is too allow us to fit the (free
) version VI carbon bonnet. If you look closely at the silver one lower down the bonnet shape, lights etc are all different on a IV.. This would have left a rather odd shape gap between the light top and the straight bonnet edge. The projector lamps aren't as nice as the glass VI ones I fully agree.. but lots cheaper
But hey.. it's different. and it's got you all talking again.. so who cares!![Big Grin](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)

The engines much nicer to look at than the car. That is bloody awful.
Hope TSL arn't starting to go down the max power route. Judging by the last 2 cars (the strange kitted scoob) its gettin me worried
