Turbo bonnet???

Serious?

Nooooooo.........................






Less is more.

Will do Adam. Those studs on the front need to be ground off back to smooth. Then just 3M doublesided tape in that front edge. The other three bolts hold it very firm and flat. Ive done 2 before.

Absolutely turbo bonnet Jase. USDM comes standard with a turbo bonnet and I love the look. IMO it will finish of the front view of the car. On its way anywho.

[Adam]

Oh ok. Maybe I should just give it another go with some tape!!

Problem is, I sanded a bit of the wing, hoping it would clear. Now it needs painting again!

Considering giving it a go in acrylic

[CRUISN]

Mines going into the panel beaters in approx 4 weeks. Wing, bonnet, mirrors, RHS guard and LHS front door getting done.

Then the car will be done.












"nearly"

[Adam]

Yeah right

The engine bay looks bare with the S1 intake pipe so I bought a Cusco strut brace purely to fill the gap.

Mounts will be painted 49B and bar 51E. Colorcoded.

[CRUISN]

Same guys who've done all my Gen4 parts. Very happy with their work and on the situated on the corner of my work. Win!

They said $600 cash to repair and paint RHS guard and bonnet.

Gen2 looks so grandpa spec without the turbo bonnet. Should look great with the mirrors too, I was considering getting a pair for mine but couldn't be bothered in the end

OMG - you should of bought 5 pairs and flogged them of for $200 a set.

[CRUISN]

As if I would buy things to sell and make a few dollars on forums??

^^^ hahahaha no not you

A few minor tidy ups...

Slotted rotors... hey they were free.




20mm adjustable WL Liberty swaybar. Fitted moreso to bring the rear C links back near vertical as the longer Outback sway pushes them right forward when lowered.



Had my mate finish off the exhaust by fitting up an STi rear muffler. The tip was hammered so went with a angled tip. A very nice, slightly deeper note. Perfect for daily duites.
Gotta love good mates. He did the whole cat back system and wouldnt take a cent for it. Told me if I paid I wouldnt be welcome back in his workshop.....

[CRUISN]

The gold brakes arent doing it for me. I have a front set that I'll be repainting to "stand out". Rears I'll have to do when the cars not required for a few days....

[AussieTemplar]

Every image you take of brakes is jizzworthy, Mark.

[CRUISN]

Excited as the Outback is near completion.

Going into the panel beaters on Monday to have two dents fixed rh front guard and lh passenger door.

Ganador mirrors, JDM rear wing and turbo bonnet to be painted.

Cusco front strut brace for bling being color coded - white bar, grey mounts in factory colors.

10mm drop all round.

Brakes Im repainting white with gold decals.

4 weeks till completion.

Then Jun Sawa photo shoot. Happy times.

[simon]

Yeeeewww can't wait to see it completed mate, white with gold decals huh?? I think that will tie in well pics ASAP

[CRUISN]

Yep white with gold. The gold calipers get a bit lost behind the wheels. The new color combo will work better.

[RX25SE]

the Outback is near completion.

Ummmm........yeah.
You sure?








I'm looking forward to seeing the pics Mark.
