T'is going to be a BIG job, so I'd suggest pricing EVERYTHING up before purchasing it 'including wider rims and tyres to avoid it looking like its on train rims'

I'm pretty sure you mentioned you're a panel beater so you'd know what's involved but if you haven't looked into it you'd be looking at modifying quarter panels, bonnet 'I don't have this model so I'm unsure if the bonnets are the same', and due to the products being used 'Thermo Flex Fiber', its most likely you'd need to respray the entire car to get it to come out right 'think of the issues spray painters have matching bumpers to the rest of the car now-a-days'.

Dependant on your situation you may find it more viable to go out and purchase an STi of your model or possibly newer 'which would include selling your car'.

Check out Tinos' 'Engine Build Back', thread and see some of the pic's he posted 'note Tino purchased the L'aunsport kit which would be of better quality then this reproduction'.

Interested to know what they quoted you for it.
