Another wee trip to the subaru dealer to order some exterior and interior clips , pick them up tomorrow always the little things that are annoying getting some interior bits carbon dipped by a friend next month .

Posted your box of goodies today :nod:

Included a indicator bulbholder/plug, its the same plug as the fog light, so you can just chop the end off.

Looks like it has a massive roof scoop.....

Just noticed that :rofl:

Cheers is it Royal Mail Nick

If I bought these how easy would it wire them and where would you put the relay ?
http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14...7d0ca693d0.jpg

Well I think this will do for now

I'll look at my horn relay location and let you know

Well the scoop is fitted back to how it should look but needs more work done to it but will do for now .

That looks sooo much better dude good job!

:agreed:

:agreed:

Thanks guys but the splitter is really starting to get on my nerves with all those stone chips now should I try to do it myself or leave it to the professionals as it's a bigger job .

Give it a go. Take your time and prep it well and at the end of the day it'll always look better than being chipped. If your still not happy then get it done by a bodyshop :five:

Looking much better! :)

Good lad scott.. So much better!!! Believe me mate your splitter has nothing on mine and my front bumper. The paint job I got done was a joke.

million times smarter top job

Yep, looking good :ok:

As there is a lot of stone chips what's the best grade of sandpaper to use to get them flush already got wet and dry fine to give the smooth finish before the primer stage as I am going to attempt it myself first .

I was looking through my folders of history that came with the car and noticed that it got fitted with an exedy clutch last year but it doesn't feel like it as it has a slight judder when moving off in first gear unless it's just the up grade one and not the pink box as it was bought from eurocarparts .

Today I picked up my replacement lights for the morettes as they were broken so striped the old ones down fitted the parts to the new lights with a bit of elbow grease and swearing but got them fitted and put them back on the car so a wee little photo was in order for my work .

Looks smart, bit so do the oem so I'm torn lol
Coming along nice tho keep it up!

Painted some more bits this time I used plastikote as Scott(silver surfer) suggested and I Thankyou as it is good stuff now I wonder if I could paint the inlet manifold with it . I redone the header tank lid as it looked crap anyway here is a wee pic of the bits done .

Nice stuff, not sure on the temps plasticoate can deal with, Header tank shouldn't get much above 100 degrees neither should the inlet manifold
