I've only heard good things about Subtle Solutions if you are chasing spacers.

last set i made i used a plastic chopping board

Have you put any more thought into squeezing some more power out of the engine. Like strapping on one of those intake fans

Cut it out and used fiberglass and 2k filler to fill the gap. Honeycomb mesh held in by mesh pins fibreglassed in and badge cut out of a GDB WRX grill.

Most expensive and time consuming grill I've ever done.

IMO though 100 times better looking than original. Never liked the post sticking up in the middle.

I agree, looks much better without the buldge in the middle lol... Much neater! Since I gotta repaint it, maybe I can do without the buldge but I know I'll stuff it up :( ffs!

Damn. So these are going on it or up for sale?

MY00 Red RX, a nice daily that was sold off once the B4 became reliable...
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.

Going on for a bit for pics and then sell I think as the cash will go to the Chev.

They're already spoken for when I do sell though...

Those wheels are unique in that they would suit nearly every Subaru going from Gen 1 Lib up to New WRX.....colour dependant of course.

I dont know the color code sorry, just getting paint eye matched at my local auto paint supplier.

Wheels are a classic design Niko so they do indeed suit most Subaru's. Super light for 18's too.

Epic. That's what perfection looks like. Well done as per usual Mark. You're one in a million.

Wanting to buy/looking for: single genuine STi rim, genuine STi front lip, Corazon or Zero/Sports grille and another OEM grille

Can you hook a brother up? Please contact me now. I have cash ready.
