Thumbs up My 05 Blobeye wrx sti in Crystal Grey

I picked this up yesterday from Richard and I have to say it's a cracker

Thank god you're getting rid of the roof scoop, as that just looks plain daft.

Cheers guys I'm very pleased here and as said a great list of mods to go with it without going to far. I'll be having a look at the scoop with our local detailer hopefully this evening so we can see what is required altogether.

Looks perfect (apart from the scoob, but you'll have that covered)

Love the wheels done in anthracite.

Very nice choice.

Down on power though, you should be getting another 30 - 40 bhp out of that.

Time for a little update and showing the car as it stands now, I've done a few small bits and have a few other items planned but for now I've now removed the sub from the boot and all wiring has been removed plus I have replaced the number plates. Also I've fitted a 22mm Whiteline Rear ARB and a rear strut brace which has tightened things up a little finally I've had some front Performance Friction pads fitted.


















This is a must and after having one fitted in my classic I enjoyed it so much I had to go for it again
