Hi ladies and gents,looking for a wee bit of advice really.....just got back from down south (sorry i missed tonights meet,but i think i thrashed any life that was in her out ,all the way up the road from somewhere near birmingham!!!! :icon_salut: and there was no chance i would make it back down in time with x444) after picking up a nice cleanish example of an 01 plate bugeye in red mica for absolute peanuts,i actually felt guilty driving it away!!!

The car is only a 2.0 awd wagon so nothing fancy performance wise as im going to use it for a daily run around to replace my laguna 2 which is about to start costing money so its been told to look for a new home...the wagon did however already come with a nice wrx/sti style factory fitted kit on board consisting of front bumper,wrx skirts and a rear bumper apron,so its not too bad looking apart from the usual minor stone chips and scratches here and there which was expected.it does have a badly cracked drivers foggy which will need replaced any idea's where to find a cheap replacement or does anyone have any lying around unused for sale?? before i go on a recon mission arounnd fleabay.

The exhaust is also a bit tatty looking so would like to replace the backbox...any suggestions??

The car has also been fitted with a rear bumper protector type thingy as you open the bootlid - looks quite nice in the sort of brushed aluminium effect with impreza stamped on it if one of the previous owners hadn'd reversed into something solid with it!!! it has 2 bad dents/creases in it an would probably be better off being ripped off but before i do my usual and tear into it i thought i better ask if anyone else has seen these and know what they are attached with? im presumin that they are just stuck on with adheasive tape? i fear damaging the bumper or worse findin its bolted on and there's big holes under there???

What alloys will finish the car off?? will all the normal wrx / sti alloys from the same age of car fit straight on?? remember not looking for huge costly mods just cheap and cherful to tart up a daily run around,but after all shes a scooby and deserves to look good all the time as im sure you'll all agree!!!!

Big shout out to all the scoobies who waved and flashed on the m6 today!! cheers John

I have an STI backbox (from a Hawkeye) living in my spare room that's looking to move out and broaden it's horizons if you are interested.
