oobster Posted December 18, 2005 Posted December 18, 2005 Decided to get a bodyshop to do it for me, as i'd probably have ended up scratching the paintwork. Cost me 20 notes. It was pi$hin down when i took these pics.

craig mac Posted December 18, 2005 Posted December 18, 2005 HOW IS IT DONE? IS IT WITH USE OF HEAT OR WHAT? Craig
oobster Posted December 18, 2005 Author Posted December 18, 2005 Craig - dont know what the bodyshop used to remove them, but they are just held on with that sticky thin foam stuff. Gumball did his on his own, maybe some sort of plastic spatula thing so as not to mark the paint? Gus - no, it wasn't Stevie, it was another bloke. The same guy that painted my STi "aero skirts" on the front bumper. The very same parts that I just noticed today are all stone-chipped to buggery, so I shall be going back to see him tomorrow. St3ph3n - the car is now manky again. I washed & chamois-dried it at lunchtime, used a bit of autosol on the tailpipe then dressed the tyres with armorall, then nipped to a nearby industrial estate to take the pics. By the time i got back (2 mile round trip max) the car was mucky again. Ah well, roll on summer. Gumball - i'd love to get my car featured somewhere, but unfortunately that bloke with the other red blobeye thats kicking about at the moment (muddy) always manages to get in there before me. Can't complain though, his is 100 times smarter than mine. Maybe one day it will appear in a magazine somewhere, tucked away in the background. Al - cheers bud, i didnt even notice the back ones were squint until you pointed it out. Got it jacked up last weekend, wheels off and got them straightened. Fingers almost fell off with the cold! To all others - cheers for the comments. The only other mod i have planned (and have budget approval for) is a Scott Lowe TRU front splitter. But i'll wait until the spring.
craig mac Posted December 18, 2005 Posted December 18, 2005 ANDY IT LOOKS AWESOME WISH YOU COULD GET THE STI IN RED IT ROCKS CRAIG
p1ggm Posted December 18, 2005 Posted December 18, 2005 car looks good with them removed, i took mine off within 2 weeks of owning the car easy to remove, get a heat gun or hair dryer, heat them up a bit then peel off, then when they are all off just give the boot a good polish up, you might need some tar and glue remover too to take off all the glue if you dont hat it enough
