Default Lucky's Wagon STI

After owning it a month and it being sat in the garage looking sorry for itself I finally had a day and a bit this weekend to get to work on reviving her!.

Snowfoam, wash, Megs compound, Blackfire polish and Blackfire wax/sealant and she is looking a lot better.

Paint/bodywork is really good, particularly for a 16 year old car. No rust, No dings, No nasty scratches and very few stone chips, so really pleased.

Still needs bumper clips and the front bumper re alining, the splitter needs repainting along with the side skirts tho these could easily be stripped back to the original plastic look as most of the paint has flaked where it didn't bond property to the plastic when they were painted. Would love a nice set of 18"Prodrive PFF7's at some point or just a refurb.

Mechanically, a good service, new shocks as the front are very bouncy and possibly a brake upgrade, but all in good time. Firstly a service and check over.

Anyways, here she is, the hawks long awaited replacement.









Oh and not forgetting a couple of additions!!!
