99 Impreza L to a 99 STI Help!

newsavedone · 07-19-2012, 11:03 PM

I know this might sound kind of a cheesy or just stupid but I want to convert the Interior and Exterior of my 99 Impreza L to a 99 STI. Im not looking to change the motor or anything as I'm happy with the 2.2 and no problems. I was wondering if anybody knows what I would have to do for the exterior. I know to get a STI spoiler and new front end bumper but don't know what style or what kind it is. Also if anybody has pictures of one would be extremely helpful as I only have 1 to go off of.

Lastly I want to change the interior to the 99 STI style or newer STI style. I was wondering If anybody knows where to buy the seats at/carpet/everything Ill need. I already have everything ripped out and ready to go. Also I need some pictures (if anybody has them) of the inside as Ive never seen one and know that they were only sold in Japan and overseas.

Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks!

You're looking for gc8 parts. You're gonna want front bumper and fog lights, side skirts, spoiler, and hood to start with the exterior.

As far as the interior, do you plan on doing a rhd swap when replacing it?
