Love the colour mate. Seen one in the States practically the same colour and it's one of my faourite looking 5th gens 8)

I can understand why your mates say you should have done it the other way around, but it works both ways... An engine is transferable as well as a shell, but then it's getting increasingly harder to find a worthy shell these days. Out of interest what do your friends drive?

It looks great! Like Nits says it would look better with front lip and sides.

Thanks for all the positive vibes guys.

Nafeman my friends drive scoobies, ep3 type r's and focus st's lol. The scooby in the last pic is my mates WRX which my lude was keeping up with!

No way i couldnt do the spray job myself had to get a full respray from professional, was expensive! :(

Performance wise i dont have any plans yet i am just enjoyin the fun i can have in it for now. Im guessing it is running about 200bhp which is enough for now. Will be doing a dyno soon to get a baseline and will make plans from there.

That colour really sets the car off.. Very very nice. Money well spent!
