Question project nears completion

hope ya like..bought it needing a bit of work as a replacement for my wifes sport.....came with no engine,no interior loads of bits missing and generally unloved...



hopefully now just window tint's and maybee lowering springs plus bit of tlc and it looks better than ever..



The wheels took some choosing in the end I went for wr1 replica's and reckon they look sweet.
My missis is well happy with it

From pic 1 to pic 3 is an amazing transformation.

I wish I had the know-how to do that sort of thing. I'd love to rebuild a scoob - or indeed any car

Brilliant job the car looks fantastic it's a credit to you.

Tints on a wagon really look good to that will really finish the job off.

That's another new age wheel that seems to really suit the classic shape to.

Needs some STI rear spoilers to finish it off I reckon, but then I am a bit biased

There were some STi Rear Lights in For Sale Section for a Wagon too mate.... IIRC they are on about page 3 just now, 160quid and they will transform the rear of your car.....

I speak from experience, as I fitted them to my Wagon and was blown away by the difference they made.




Cheers,
Grant

Lucko thanks mate... There are more pics of the transformation here.

Trails, dont think that was the same car bud, I sold it on a couple of months ago and as far as I know it was in Glasgow at the Weekend.

You bought those lights yet Jase??
