Finally have something done and can post up a mods thread. :)

Bought my MY05 3.0rb in October last year and have been loving it ever since.
I replaced the parker bulbs with some LED globes from Leo and after an issue with the front bilstien shock, not sure what it was, but no one could fix it, I replaced all 4 with the Wheelpower "new" set and up until now that was all i had done.


This morning my tax present to myself was delivered and i now have an ultrex front lip and an ultrex heavy duty strut brace. Unfortunately due to our steep driveway the lip got scratched on the first trip out, but its not very noticeable. Also put an STI metal badge on it.

Anyway most important are some pics, excuse the dirty car and horrible weather, will get some good ones once the weather clears up and i have time to clean it.


Current Mods:
Ultrex lip with STI Badge
Ultrex heavy duty front strut brace
LED parker bulbs

Future Mods:
Heavy duty rear sway bar
STI Quads
Valenti or similar rear lights
Window tint
STI Pinks - maybe

Open for any other suggestions too

That looks neat.

Id change the orange bulbs in the front indicators to some silver type or LED ones to get rid of the orange glow. Something little, but really cleans up the front look.

Thats a good idea. I hadnt thought about that. The more I look at it the more I like the front lip on the 3.0. Its almost what is was missing, really helps with the look of thr front bumper.

Been a while since ive updated this.

Took the lip off, as I was scraping it on my driveway.
Got hold of a new set of Billies, and some STI pink springs a while back and have had them installed for quite some time.

Had a Kido Racing tune. Cant speak highly enough of this. It was a bit of a process doing the remote tuning, but all worth it. Looking forward to another update this weekend when Matt's in Tassie.

Bought a 2008 STI Honeycomb grill with the tabs reloctated to fit the pre facelift 3.0r-b bumper. Which is probably the part im the most happy with. Looks fantastic IMO.

Had some smoked Hanabi's, but for some reason one side just doesn't want to work properly. Only getting some LED's in normal light and different LED's when braking, so they are still in a box in my shed unfortunately.

A couple of pics below.
