That STi looks like it is RHD, so it is very possible it is authentic and not riced out.

Ok, it is RICE. But it isn't horrible. Atleast it's painted, the vinyls lame. And they need to drop it...other than that..POS

Got one for you guys... actually thought of this thread as I took the pic.
No kidding, the wing is as wide as the outside edges of the rear view mirrors.

Thats a pretty nice looking RS body that might have an Sti swap in it plus he could very well have STI parts in the car and since they are just a division that offers upgrades and what not i dont see the violation here.

well..... i came across some pretty funny sh*t

What I imagine he meant to say was the "Illest" or something of that nature.....cut out with a pair of dull scissors.


I REALLY Like the H cut into the fenders with what looks like a hacksaw.




If you will notice.... the BOV with NO TURBO!

You should totally tell him he's a celeb, and that his car is on the internet. Then give him the link.

lol!

That must be a one-off body kit - it just doesn't look right. Ruins the lines of the MR-2.
