So after a long search, I've finally found my way into a White MY02 GT Forester (Yep, another one)

Completely standard, one owner and in mint condition i couldn't pass it up, and picked it up yesterday morning. 
 

 
 
It didn't stay completely standard for long, on the way home I picked up a new headunit with bluetooth and phone connection, as well as a few other bits and pieces. Installed everything that afternoon when i got home. 
 
 

 

 

 
 
 
Chrome Indicators to remove the egg look in front and back indicators, as well as replacing the parker and licence bulbs with clear white LED's. 
 

 

 

 

 
 
 
This morning I went to the RTA to transfer rego, and decided to ditch the ugly yellow plates for some cleaner slimline white ones. 
 

 
 
 
I'm really happy with the car overall, it was well worth the wait. 

Im planning on sorting out the suspension straight away with a set of coilovers and bigger sway bars. It also needs some tints, and a proper exhaust to replace the pea-shooter it came with.

That looks really clean and the small mods you've done have made a huge difference already man. Your planned mods are realistic and can be achieved pretty quickly. Good stuff man and it's great to see you're happy with the new purchase.

Thanks Gary

Yeah I'll take it further in the future just want to get these things sorted before uni goes back haha

Only downfall is that the first owner lost the central locking remote, so I have to sort out either getting a new key fob, or a new alarm/central locking system.

Has anyone done this before and have any recommendations?

Quick question, for the plate swap, just a $99 fee?

$102 now, it went up after end of financial year the lady told me

No annual fee or anything

[Liberty]

I thought so! It's still a flat fee to RESTYLE.

Cheers, restyle to random combination only...

Squeezed in with the CZ beginning! 

 

A few more cosmetic changes today, New set of Black floor-mats as originals were quite worn, as well as a set of Diamond Vision Headlights. Feels good to be able to see now, big difference compared to what seemed like 14 year old bulbs!

Nice pick up.

I had the morning off today so i decided to get rid of the crappy in guard resonator and replace it with an PVC unit for a bit more intake noise. I'm surprised at the difference it made for $7. 

 

 

 

I cut up a bit of old perspex and painted it black as a blanking plate to cover the hole where the factory resonator came into the engine bay. The shitty looking bolts have been painted since the photo and look a lot better. 

 

 

 

 

I'm trying to pick up a new set of wheels before Coilovers go in next week, and i'll be ordering some front and rear swaybars shortly after that.

Are you eventually gonna fit an oem plug in the intake hole you covered up?

Will look much better

Otherwise yet another tidy white foz!
