 Masked up the rear quarters above the bumper ends just in case i slipped, trying to line up both sides when you're only holding the middle is a challenge! Will get some pics in a bit

Car looks a bit higher than normal in those pics but i think its cos it wasn't on the flat - half on, half off the road.

well i think your cars wicked steve with the mods you have done on it
 i think you should save up and get a big spoiler+boot as a spare then you can give it a change now and then. as for telling if a spoiler is real or a copy. look at the brake lite,at each end the real ones have wot looks like a bullet tip on the end of the brake lite. copys dont. i not 100% i wish i had a turbo

Looks fantastic steve. I love what you have done to yours as its now unique and you wont see another like it. It prob only looks high at the back because they seem to take a while to settle after being jacked up too.

cheers mate. that looks the business but can't justify swapping out for coilovers yet really, suspension on it is all pretty new.
blobeye rear lights do help too, still keeping an eye out for a bargain set on ebay.

Not replied before as to be honest I wasn't sure on how the new bumper suited the car
 Kept popping in to have a look though and the more I look at it, the more i'm liking it  Does sit well spoilerless too If you opt to go back for the spoiler look, how about the S202, 03, 04 spoilers? think one of them would go wellThe torque drifts look good on the piccie Jura posted up  maybe worth consideration Steve? Has to rank as one of the nicest bugs on the road mate

Cheers Ron.
Everyone has different tastes and i've got no problems with some people saying it doesn't look right etc. A lot of people say the spoilerless doesn't work without it being slammed with wide wheels, but hey ho. One of the S202/3 spoilers might be cool. Wouldn't want to spend a load on one to change my mind though!

Think its always difficult when you mod something thats a good example anyway people see it for what it was and its that toss up between excellent clean example or modded clean example!I think I would have been the same if it was my car, not sure if I liked it before or after more often than not its the mods that your not sure about after fitment that turn out to be the best ones further down the lineSpoiler wise, how about trying one of those BMW lips on the rear?

Time for a bit of an update i think.
Did an evening session at Brands which went well, apart from melting a set of brand new Bluestuff NDX's (yes, the copper in them melts at 1100c, so a bit toasty). Top marks to EBC who got involved with a thread on scoobynet, and they've sent me a replacement set of NDX's to try, as well as a set of yellows (for free). Seems there are issues with the pad on WRX 4 pots and EBC wanted people to try options and give feedback. Anyway, brake fluid change this morning was the final step before being ready for the Ring this weekend (cheers to Brent @ SMD for fitting me in, rather last minute!). Some photos from Brands:

Other recent changes - i've sold the despoilered bootlid and currently gone back to the WRX one. Hopefully this won't be staying too long as I have a little project to work on.
Also picked up a set of blobeye lights   Really like how they look, make the back of the car look much newer, especially with the new bumper/diffuser. Roll on Germany!!

Probably time for an update
So... changes since June last year.... I bought an STI spoiler online for cheap (took a punt on it) and it turned out to be crap. But it was on the car for a few months before selling it again (at least i made my money back). This was the car at Japbash in Sept 2011.

After that, i saved up the pennies for a while and decided to address my problems with melting front brakes. So at Christmas, these arrived
356mm 8 pot Ksport kit from the group buy on Scoobynet, with bluestuff NDX pads. They've totally transformed the car on track, and got some serious abuse at the Ring and even more so at Goodwood. They don't fade at all and the stopping power is just nuts. Might have to address the imbalance from front/rear as the below pic shows

After the brakes went on, my front splitter got broken (trodden on
 ) so that was removed for a while. During this time, our friendly Admins at True Colours detailed the car - well chuffed with the result.    Shame it was raining for the drive home!

Last update.... bought a genuine STI spoiler to replace the crappy replica. Only problem was it was white (off Anger's trooper) so huge thanks to Tangowayne for painting the spoiler and bootlid, plus the new splitter and fog covers at the same time.
Fog lamps removed before new covers fitted, and all now done bodywork-wise. How the scoob looked at the Ring:   And at Goodwood:

Had the car for 5 years now, and finally going to get round to decat/map. Its been running rich for a while anyway so i need to get the fuelling checked anyway.
This arrived today from the H&S group buy, shiny  It also weighs quite a bit less than i was expecting, i get the feeling the standard catted downpipe with all the heatshields on it must be at least twice as heavy.

Overkill on the finish! Need to drive it upside down now!
Looks great, I have some spare heat wrap and stainless ties if you need some.

Have you replaced the up-Pipe or was it de-catted on the PPP versions?
