rubix Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 new grilles, just wish i didnt have to put number plate back on, but i will see if i can get a smaller 1, next step rear wing.. after some flaps if anyone knows of any prodrive peas 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 looks great. Only thing I guess you could do is get some fog covers and get a square plat move the plate over to the fog lights. But a lot of messing about to do that. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay762 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 that looks great!! - number plates do spoil it somewhat - think I would end up going for a bonnet sticker version - they pass the MOT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubix Posted April 13, 2013 Author Share Posted April 13, 2013 yeah was thingking about the square over the fog but im a little OCD and needs to be in the middle lol, Really Jay we can do that? might be an idea depending on how big the back ground has to be.. what you think it would look like with bigger scoop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Bigger bonnet scoop I like the smaller size one myself. Rear Spoiler it's a must :D And the sticker I think would have to go on the bonnet I would have thought :( And I'm the same OCD. But for me it has to look right and in place with my car or it bugs me :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubix Posted April 13, 2013 Author Share Posted April 13, 2013 yeah bit like the old e-type, got the prodrive spoiler selling them cheap on pro-r, bargain.. except they shiped it with no areofoil fixing holes and no prodrive decals. but they gave me a dicount on my grilles and are fitting it for me at ashburton subaru for freeeee, i like free!!! wanna get some prodrive decals for the wings now and MIGHT de-badge and get a PPP for the !Removed! of her 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay762 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 That all sounds like a plan, As I understand it, so check with your local tester, as long as the letters numbers etc are the correct size and spacing and the mot tester can read it from a specific distance you are good to go, mazda mx5's had them at one point I would also stick with the smaller scoop - if you want more air through the intercooler go front mount Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubix Posted April 13, 2013 Author Share Posted April 13, 2013 So I'm guessing most dont like the sti scoop, I know it shouldn't really mater what people think but I kinnda do (not that you could tell by having bug lol) as for thd front mount, if I had that it go for the reverse scoob, I think they look awseome. But as you can tell I'm trying to go fully prodrive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaneyWRX Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 am lovin the grilles huni they look awesome!!! I would stick with the small scoop too :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 I will always say if your happy go for it mate. I just think the STI scoops look silly and I always think how much drag back must that bring :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubix Posted April 13, 2013 Author Share Posted April 13, 2013 good point well made Gambit maybe if i got a roof and bonet scoops i could pull wheelies, i do like the big ones, but thats another person (laneywrx) who has said they like the smaller ones, is that your baby in the pic laney?

Hey Rubix I believe your car is a reflection of your personality so if you wanna go big you go big huni!!! I've driven a scoob with a big scoop and because i'm short i couldn't see over it LOL but hey each to our own :D And yes thats my girl... I will get some more pics up soon ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't say much I have a roof scoop on mine :) I like to see the power bulge but not have it in my face. But unlike Laney I'm not short. But go for it mate what you got to lose, if you don't like it on the car yourself resell it put the smaller one on ;) Just remember some picture you never know could win me over with it. And I could end up with one ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay762 Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 wrt the scoop size for me its more about function first - if I was going to do short twisty tracks all the time I would go for the big scoop get as much air through the intercooler as possible but longer runs and higher speeds I think I would be worried it would pull the bonnet off - when experimenting, on closed private roads , the bonnet on mine was moving around quite a bit once into 3 figures, bonnet pins are now also in the shopping list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 You white knight of the road you ;) And I know what you mean my bonnet does look like it would lift off at high speeds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
