car has probably been in a front end collision. Explains the foglights and no sticker on the 'slam panel' as we are apparently calling it these days.. might have been easier to source fog lights than sourcing covers at the time during repair.

Possibly drawing a pretty long bow there. Could be a guy who did country runs and liked the extra light. ???

Is also missing STI badges off front guards, but still doesnt mean its a fake one.

Just go and have a look and if you arent sure, get an expert to look at it. Price seems decent.

No doubt its an STI, AUDM 99 STI's and JDM 98 STI were 2 door.

Check for crash damage, if its straight I don't see why would you worry. Its never going to be a collectors item. Whatever people think makes it special for being a 2 door is gone as soon as you mod it anyway.

QFT, unless the car is completely original, and travelled less then 40000k's they don't really seem to be holding much value these days.
