Heheh... would love to Chris, and I already checked out your FS thread... $$s are holding me back in a big way unfortunately!... Feel free to swap with my stocker though!

[Jimmy S]

So... Thought I'd post up a before and after pic... Thanx to Dave and Matt for helping a brutha out!

Before:



After:

[Arith]

Looks great Jimmy! I love the painted chrome strip. Very subtle yet makes the tinted taillights look more integrated. Not sure if you've gotten rid of that CF spoiler for good, but I like it better without it. Just need to find a way to cover up that dot on the bumper! Looks like an ass pimple.

[Laps]

;o love it...

Few Q's/Statement

1. WHAT THE HELL IS THAT DOT lolll???
2. Dont like the CF boot lip - looks cheap and doesnt go with car
3. What did you use to tint the tail lights?
4. What mate you not paint the strip a glossy black? (Just curious)

[zero1]

1. reversing camera
2. each to their own. cf is a love hate mod to many ppl
3. tint film, there should be a previous thread on it.
4. ??

[Jimmy S]

Hahah.. Cheers Jim...

Still undecided on the CF spoiler... it is off for now... and I do like it without...

The reversing camera will eventually be sprayed black I hope... although no doubt it will still be annoying...

In terms of Q4:
4. What mate you not paint the strip a glossy black? (Just curious)

I didn't want it to look like an attempt to match the stock paint, the flat black blends well with the darker lights imo...

Nice Job, on your car.
i like seeing cars develop with photos from the start like that.
TOP JOB.

True...

Well i Have four dots on my rear bumper all black for my reverse sensor, and they look fine (cant even notice)... SO i defs recommend spraying it black

As with the film, did you use the same film as arith (are you refering to that thread)?

ASSSS with CF, I love CF on other colour cars (yellow, white, red, blue etc), but CF on a black car just looks terrible in my opinion...

what did u do with the holes from the spoiler?

[TorpedoCreative]

good job Jimmy, its looking sweet . I love the full width diffuser and prefer it without the CF spoiler

Wait what?... Mine is just a Spec B pretending to be an STi... not a legitimate one!

Cheers James!!

Wasn't there holes in the boot where the spoiler gets bolted on? I've got holes in my boot, wondering if you filled them in or plugged it up?

Nah... Spec B's don't come with a spoiler! I fitted a CF spoiler which is just attached using double sided tape, which doesnt leave holes when you take it off!

[Jimmy S]

So... Its been a while and not much has changed on the car until recently!

Fitted the PSR Silicon Intake pipe up and got the car Verso'd on Monday - 230Hp and 333Nm



Also... Picked up a genuine STi strut brace... bombed







Couple of photo's from Rexpo on Sunday as well
