Default Hawkeye photoshop request please!!

Right, i have an 06 WRX and i have spent a lot of money making it look, stop and go like an Sti, so now i think it is time to give the car the Sti decal treatment, but i dont want to spend cash on the foglight covers and stickers then find i dont like it.
So can someone help please and give me some foglight covers and Sti decals?

Thanks in advance
Oh ye, and the side stickers if possible please




Do you think i would be doing the right thing?

Mate leave it as it is. No point sticking STi on it if it's a WRX. If you really want an STi then go an buy one but I think your car looks sweet as it is.

I had a feeling i may get that reaction to be honest. The way the car market is at the moment its not worth me chopping in the WRX for an Sti and i would have to spend money on an Sti to get it to the same spec as the WRX unless someone has already done it.
Im only thinking about it because it looks like it just needs a little something to finish the look, any other suggestions are welcome

I dunno why, but when I saw the first pic of your car.....I had the urge to try and photoshop a slightly different grille area onto it.....



Which......to be fair......seemed like an awesome idea in my head until I actually tried it lol. Ah well. So then I got really carried away and tried a completely different front end on it lol........



I know it's a bit crap and rough around the edges, but it looks kinda cool I reckon!

The top one with the grill is not too nice, but i do like the look of the second one. I always wondered what a classic would look like in that colour, spot on mate

Got them on my WRX Hawkeye, no pics I'm afraid but also thought they looked a little plain once on so added a fews stars to just the one side and pretty pleased with the result, basically its a spare swoosh mudflap sticker I had lying around and I just used the stars in the middle along with the word Suburu. Just about to take them off actually for the winter.

It just seems a little more busy, thats all. It does look good though, its making me want a classic in this colour!


I have decided on the sticker thing too. Since the Sti idea doesnt seem to be the best, i had a nose at Combe today and found some small 3"X2" Subaru yellow swoosh stickers that should look pretty good on the doors, so i will pop these on and post pics to see what you think

It really doesn't need stickers IMHO. Looks spot on as it is. Spend your money on tinted windows instead.

Those wheels are gorgeous! They off a S204?

They are the same design as the S204, but they are Rota Fomula Mesh so probably less than half the price. They are great quality too and light weight
