Bought these today, been putting it off for ages as there stupid money for what they are, but I'm running out of stuff to do.

Then painted them the same colour as the wheels, the clear will matt down as it cures, then cupra decals going on.

Looks quality on the rota's!

I think I prefer the Single exhaust though!

Did you notice any of the waxes being easier or harder to apply? Car looks the nuts by the way! :pomppomp:

Only difference is the colour of the wax



Well looks like I may be rejoining the subaru community,

Hindsight is a great thing, I really wish I had forged my white spec d when I had the hg done, at the time it would of meant sticking it all on the credit card, but after the hg was done I never felt confident in the car , nothing wrong but when you fall out of love with a car, any noise you hear you fear the worse,

So I'd advertised the leon on a few sites. Got the usual messers, but I'm looking now in a deal with a 40k 2005 sti widetrack in crystal grey,

Needs a few tweaks, but has potential, ill keep those interested posted.

Awaiting video of your modded to the flat four exhaust note. The whole car is worth it just for that. Interested in the wide track too. Factory option?
