Hahaha yeah unfortunately thats what it was. on a slight incline but not much. maybe ads 1-2cm at the most. but thats my driveway.
have a look at my first post, 4th picture down. the wheel turned covers it up a little but you can see a gaping hole there.

thanks mate. I'm thinking now i should have got the handbrake one to go with it?

well my initial thoughts were that i don't really like the look of them. and surely nothing on this planet is more annoying and difficult than the gear boot cover! id rather give birth than do that again

Do a conversion, and when they ask what the bonnet scoop is for on an RX, tell 'em it's for the intercooler - what else?
Looking good btw!

Yes I have been told this. I don't really mind to be honest. It can be taken off easily. For the price I paid it doesn't really matter. I mainly needed the shift boot, just got that to match

MY02 Blue B4, aka 'The Project' - v8 JDM STi engine package and assorted other 'goodies' - Sold, then bought back for parts. Stripped and crushed.
MY03 Blue RX, the newer old daily, pretty well more B4 than RX now... In the process of being converted to the track toy... Watch this space!
MY02 Silver Wagon, H6 conversion, full blue/black leather and almost full black interior to go with it. In process of being stripped and sold off.
MY03 White/Silver H6 Outback, donor car for silver waghoon. Scrapped.
MY97 Silver RX, acquired to become track car, but plans changed. Scrapped.
MY13 BRG, current daily, very nice to drive, small mods to make it even nicer again.

Thanks mate, yeah the green is definitely "interesting" just trying something different. i do think it would look much better on a black car but oh well. I'm happy with it until the novelty wears off.Cars looking mint! Love the ride height. The green fog lights are interesting haha If i had of known that heritage wheels blackened would look so good, i would have done that. I do believe you on that ride height.
