Looking good James. :D

Still after the matching rears?

Very easy to keep clean. I just use a wheel brush and car wash to wash them down everytime I wash the car. Mine still look as fresh as the day they were painted. :wink:

They look great cruising along behind the black wheels :good:
Did you fit and bleed the brakes yourself?


Haha all though I got told a fair bit it's not hard to do, I paid a proper mechanic to do it. Don't like trying DIY's on the car especially when it comes to my brakes haha


Yeh I feel you there!
Putting new slotted rotors on the front in the coming weeks and want to paint my calipers while everything is off. Might get my sisters mate to help out with the brake bleeding etc so i know the car will stop :p

This forester is too awesome. It's the sort of forester that makes you go "Shit, I could drive one of them."
Built not bought, it's a way of life.

Haha I wish, unfortunately didn't fit the budget + with the car not doing any track time in the near future I figured all I needed was the street driving set up!

Thanks for all the comments guys, much appreciated!

No major updates on my new front bumper unfortunately

Thought I'd throw my new additions up though in between getting a hold of my bumper!

After getting a Canary because of excessive noise I got rid of the Xforce Canon And opted for a 3" Custom system with twin tip xforce muffler, The note is much better now being quiet while cruising but still has the boxer rumble when I put my foot down and will also cop a lot less attention from the po po due to sitting up higher and being much quieter while cruising.

Another addition is my Pirelli P Zero Neros, after giving these a thorough workout down south on Caves Road in both wet and dry conditions I'm extremely happy with the new tyres.

Exhaust looks very tidy and not to "in your face".

After going from RE050A to P Zero Nero's, I found the Bridgestones to be a better tyre, being able to go sideways a lot easier on the Pirelli's. But it sure was fun. :mrgreen:
