I'd say the red on black look, looks evil :twisted:
Plus, it would make a great "in motion" pic!!
Your input required please... possible new look for 2009.
Must admit im in 2 minds now whether to keep the car stealth or change the wheels and vinyll it. So im considering going the opposite way mate.
If your going to go stealth have you considered removing the rear spoiler ? Not sure what effect it would have on the rear stability of the car though? also you could replace the bonnet with one that doesnt have the front scoop? unless its feeding an oil cooler? Just my 2 penneth.
Oh and option 1 for defo!

Yes concidered the wingless look but i too would want a smooth bonnet to complement it. However i have a top mounted oil cooler to fit under the scoop so i need to keep the scoop in place.
My other thought was the posibility of white rims, but dunno if i could pull it off on a black impreza?

looks a lot better stickered up and it makes it easier to find in a big car park!! :-D
Wheels in No. 2 pic look best I think
When I was at the pod with mark a couple of weekends ago I was looking at some of the graphics on the cars and I must say they looked awesome, I know it's personal taste but I think if you've got it , flaunt it - be individual

Driving a fast Jap import is like coming out of the closet, you might surprise some people, but in the end you are still gay.

I know what you mean Phil, but ive had the decaled look now for 2 years and its time to be naked for a bit. Maybe i will have something on the car but if i do it will be small and discreet, a sunstrip maybe?

Frayz the white rims plus some form of white vinyll is what im considering, wondered if youd got the oil cooler on top mines above the top mount so will funds willing possibly look to go down the smooth bonnet route.
Interestingly ive bent the corner of the boot up after marham and I have a suspicion it may be due to the rear wing so Im poss looking at a smooth rear end as well. Also ripped the seal strip off one side down the straight as well. Not sure what to do about stopping that happening again. Duck tape possibly may be the answer
.
I still reckon look 1 mate if your tired of decals. You might want to think about tints for the rear windows as it finishes the all black look off. I had my doubts when we picked the car up as to whether to keep our tints but they do make a difference to the look of the car when its all black etc.
You could also opt for stealth graphics i.e either the clear raised type ones or dark grey on black so they are only visible close up. seen a few black cars with them and they do look special.

Thats so wierd neil seeing the car in a very different form Im thinking more sumo style though with possibly white wheels and no rear spoiler if I go down that route. the cusco thing has been done a bit often even though it looks good wouldnt want to copy anything etc. Loving the wing mirrors though.
As you might have guessed given the lack of serious interest in the car Im keeping it and just going to try and make room on the driveway for another addition next year once the GT4 has gone . Just got to try and quieten her down a bit as the car is still to noisy for donny by a couple of db and sort out the seal strip issue etc.
