hey guys
Im thinking about updating the front end on my 94 wrx and was just wondering if the bumper, lights, grill and bonnet off like a 99 will bolt straight on or if u gotta change mounts and all that?
thanks

Quokka. A guy has a bonnet with scoop etc advertised in there today for $250.

I would rather go OEM second hand then SSS, unless u drive like a hyundai or something. Second hand/SSS painting is required 90% of times anyways

GX-REX is also right. Quokka new issue out today. GX-REX is a good bargain hunter! I can tell

Nah my bonnet came from SSS and I would like for someone to pick the difference. Perfect fit no troubles at all. Cost just over $300 but then needed scoop, vents, vent covers and splitter as well as paint. I was quoted $500 for a complete second hand one from JWS when I bought mine.

and it will require paint anyways, as most of the colours from my94-96 were different to my97+
