Choices for my STi 04
Hi Guys, I need some honest help with some choices that are coming up.
I have some paint peeling on my Bonnet scoop, and was thinking about possible carbon fibre wrapping ( just the scoop). ( or even buying a new scoop all together, depending on price and time and what ever) obviously I dont want just the scoop to look carbon fibre, and there be nothing else on the car like that... I'm getting ( I wanted these before but cant choose of the black plastic or the carbon fibre look.) Front Lip, if i choose carbon fibre more then likely the front grill, Gauge pod - where the clock is, (possibly) Vortex thingy above the back window. All opinions are appreciated, a few things also if you have any I'd love to see pictures let me know.. THANK YOU

Look at Ultrex for some idea of prices.
Naturally carbon will look much better than black plastic. Vortex generator on rear of roof is shit, look instead at a rear diffuser.

Prefer standard black PU lip. The CF lips are more prone to cracking, and let's face it, you will scratch the shit out of it, so the more malleable it is, the better.
I think the ship has sailed on carbon wrapping, but in small amounts still looks classy. Agree with Dave, vortex things look shit, but so do hardcore rear diffusers on a street car.

Just repaint scoop to match the rest of the bonnet so it doesn't look like aids.
Prefer black lip personally. Rear of the car is fine without vortex thing or diffuser. I do really however like the look of the rear window vane spoiler that the piggy's had as standard:

Go the flat back front lip, like already mentioned you will scratch it, I paid 100 bucks for mine second hand and I don't want to shoot myself every time it scrapes over bumps etc. Yes to the gauges triple pod with defi gauges ftw, not cheap though

I recently put a black pu lip on my pig and I really like the look of it. I spent a while looking at photos of similar cars with and without one trying to see if it suited the car. I am also a fan of the vane spoiler and am looking at one of those too. In the end though if you like it, who cares if other people don't. Just be sure before you spend the cash.

Repaint scoop. Wraping stuff is crap. Especially "carbon".
Also no to votex gayamagigs.

My whole thing is keeping cars as clean as possible. I just sold my car and it was awesome being able to put most of it back to stock. Makes selling so much easier. Bit of an old man's point of view though
