Hmmmmm....
Its look nothing like the ST's I have seen :wonder:

The ST stripes are two bland equal (around 45mm stripes) down the side in one colour. I would say they are more like the Gobstopper, and as its on a Subaru..... :brickwall.....

Another blend of the two designs:

Not many 18's in favorable sizes for an Impreza, Well not without significant arch work or a car on stilts. LOL

leecalcars 28 April 2011 06:41 PM

rolling the arches mate or even cutting them back to fit extension arches not sure yet,probebly the latter.

leecalcars 29 April 2011 06:44 PM

MRSIMPSON 04 May 2011 03:06 PM

How about you don't get the graphics and keep it stealth? Great project, I love it.

leecalcars 04 May 2011 09:53 PM

Cheers mate , think I'm like a women in a shoe shop when it comes to buying parts just can't stop myself ! Lol

Things will start to happen once I get the car back , just a case of gathering parts and information while I have the time, the best bits are to come putting it all back together again .

leecalcars 05 May 2011 09:44 PM

Finally got hold of a bosch 044 fuel pump just need the 6 + 8mm braided fuel lines and AN fittings .

Still no call from Custom Cages as to when il get my car back !!!

leecalcars 13 May 2011 09:29 PM

Finally got the call from Custom Cages as to delivery date back to me ,after a 30 min conversation with Marcel, who explained the process of receiving car to making cage to fit (bespoke) to completion.
It has put my mind at rest and am really happy with the final job even though i want the door cross over fillets as an extra so will have to wait till the 26th to get it back but il leave the pictures speak for itself ,just need to get it painted in the next few weeks.

prodriverules 13 May 2011 09:50 PM

That cage looks awesome Lee,if you don't mind me asking,how much is it?
I assume you will be getting the inside painted also?

leecalcars 13 May 2011 10:15 PM

Yes Ryan im well pleased with it, and by the pictures they have sent me you can see the extra box sections near the base of the rear seats are spot on.

All in all with delivery and pick up supply and fit the cage was 2.5k cant wait to get it painted in white think it will look and do the job needed.

leedscal 13 May 2011 11:33 PM

nice mate i will be watching this

leecalcars 14 May 2011 01:37 PM

As i have had my flocked dash for a while now i thought i would get it ready for install,firstly cleaned off all the excess flock dust then i drilled a 60mm hole into bottom of cubby box to easily feed guage wiring through.

Then was the removel off the passenger airbag from the flocked cover to save weight and to remove the airbag as it wont be needed anymore, this was a bit tricky as we had to drill out the pot rivets holding the unit to the plastic cover.
with the use of my mates dave's dremmel this was quite easy thanks mate.

leecalcars 16 May 2011 06:47 PM

Me too Ryan,still a bit to go yet but as soon as i get it back its going in for paint decided on white instead of silver.
