I initially fitted a standard wrx one in about an hour and screwed that up first. I spend a good 4 hours cutting and checking, and finally filing down the STI one.. Eventually got there and looks the goods.

I kept looking at these pics to see how much was required to be cut off..

Never been a fan on 17's but i see what you mean. I initially went 18's as i already had tyres in my garage to suit. I am happy with it looks wise. And it already scraps the front lip and exhaust on most decent sized speed humps, so if anything its going to be raised up.

I have also picked up 05-07 STI bottom mounts to suit my STD coilovers for the conversion. and also ordered dba 4000 slotted fronts and oem replacement rear 5x114.3 rotors as the ones I had were worn out..

Just need to order gearbox and diff oil, and I have everything for my driveline conversion, which should be all in a couple of weeks
