Looks good Andy, but I can't help thinking that the newer bumper looks a bit out of place with the rest of the pre-facelift front end, just my opinion though

Thought i was switched on with RA's as i'm on my second STi ra.
WHERE is the roof scoop??
Was it only the sti's that had them or what?
Apart from that, you made a GOOD descision there mate

you are wrong, they're different
nice looking RA there bud, good idea to get rid of the lights![Wink](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/wink.gif)
consider a 99-00 front grill and colour coding your mirrors and door handles
here's mine from a couple of years ago (UK) , looks a bit different now though![Big Grin](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
