Karl's Blob Wrx
 
After driving around in the Saxo for just over a year ( Pictured Below )
http://i1270.photobucket.com/albums/..._4633658_o.jpg

It was Time to move on to something bigger! Insurance on an Sti was insane being 23 and Dad found a Wrx near from one of his friends.

First thing i did to it was Cut the Original Grill apart as i wasn't going to be conned into spending 80quid on a mass produced one.

Followed by a Front Mount Intercooler.

Next was getting rid of the number plate plastic as i didn't like it and was in the way over the intercooler, Smoothed it over and dad resprayed the bumper. I havnt seen any other subaru with this modification done to it.

Then Took the Headlights apart and sprayed them black and made a new number plate bracket so it can sit at the side.

Put a few guages in it Boost and Oil Temp, Didn't want them up my pillar or loose the clock so made a fibre glass plate up and put a switch in that dims them for night time driving.

Last thing that has been done to it so far is Coilovers that i got for Christmas.
And this is how it stands atm.

Went for a De-Spoilered look

http://i1270.photobucket.com/albums/...607_164547.jpg
http://i1270.photobucket.com/albums/...31_2317291.jpg

Then Finally sorted out a proper cold air feed

Looks very US style, I like it!

Red Baron 17-09-2013 06:24 AM

Very nice, like all the home fabricated stuff, looks really good.

Hongkongfooi 17-09-2013 06:54 AM

looks good...had it remapped?

BIG"E" 17-09-2013 07:10 AM

Looking GOOOOOD.. :doubleup:

Mortster 17-09-2013 07:32 AM

Very nice, thought about some spacers to bring the wheels out a bit to fill the arches? Cheaper than getting new alloys/tires.

Steve_PPP 17-09-2013 09:23 AM

Nice work :ok:

As Mortster says, wheels look a bit lost under the arches. Some wide alloys would look cool on that.

ScoobyStu 17-09-2013 09:36 AM

Looks good. Also love the home fabrications, wish I could do stuff like that!

Bytes 17-09-2013 09:55 AM

Nice mods - looking good! :)

Karl-Wrx 17-09-2013 04:31 PM

It's not been re-mapped yet no :( It's on the list of things to do!

And yeah i don't like the way the wheels sit in the arches, Have new wheels in the pipe line

Thanks all :)

Lucky 17-09-2013 05:08 PM

Good work!. Really like the bumper mod where the plate used to sit. :10:

munk 17-09-2013 06:09 PM

very nice i like that !! better with that low level spoiler on i think..

Ginola 18-09-2013 07:15 PM

looks good!, really like the front bumper mod, much better with the intercooler black ;)

drakesnow 19-09-2013 11:49 AM

Good looking car nice work. I'd put remap high on the list!!!! :)

Karl-Wrx 08-10-2013 05:44 PM

There is alot on the list :(

Mortster 08-10-2013 06:02 PM

Where you at Brands last Sunday on a different stand?

Leeroyv 09-10-2013 10:04 PM

Liking that de spoilered look... How do you find it now with the fmic? I presume the exhaust is the only other 'performance' mod??

Tyler 10-10-2013 12:03 PM

Looking good bud, whats next?

Karl-Wrx 05-03-2014 11:03 PM

After an Accident in the Subaru it's taken a massive turn :)

It's not to everyone tastes of which im aware. But i've currently had nothing but good feedback over it

The Car is now white, New set of 18x9 Alloys, Black Roof and Boot.....

The wheels will be going White in the next week or so when i;ve got some free time and i also need to put the rubber sleeving on the sideskirt

Will also be buying the wide track rear bumper at some point but due to funds it will have to remain as the standard for the time being.

Will get some better pictures once i've finished it

Cheers all

Ginola 06-03-2014 12:07 AM

looks good to me :) im not 100% sure on the blue on white though ;P

what happened in the accident?

Willowsdad 06-03-2014 03:32 AM

Liking the white, but the black boot just looks like you've had a prang and you're waiting to have it sprayed. I'd go with an anthracite colour on the alloys too. But we all need to be different or it'd be boring.

Scruff 06-03-2014 04:50 AM

I think the whole thing looks awesome. The black roof n boot are cool and the wheels look awesome. Bit of a mish mash of colour but it works for me :ok:

scoobywayne 09-03-2014 08:27 AM

Very nice

Very nice, wanted to spray my bug white but cant justify spending 2k on respray at the moment. Loving all the diy bits also

ralliart didz 12-03-2014 11:49 PM

I like that :worthy:

Plastidip it! Man its so easy and if you don't like it, you can peel it off.

Steve_PPP 13-03-2014 09:36 AM

Looks great with the white wheels, nice work :doubleup:

Sti mayhew 13-03-2014 10:30 AM

Wow that looks spot on, needs the spoiler back on imho but were all different. Failing that it's stunning mate top job.
