I did this on my MR2 with Duplicolor Fabric and Vinyl spray.
After 5 years, the blue cloth on the doors are starting to wear through. Dashboard looks like it was meant to be black, headliner is good.

One issue I had was the T-top release chipped easily from finger nails.

before


after-ish - still a bit of blue here and there


really after - potato quality

Congrats.

Those are some serious eyelids. Do they hamper the high beams at all?

That retro-does-not-fit JNA lip doesn't though. Also, dScoob's car looks way better than that.

A more recent one of mine

No not really. I'm not too sure how I feel about them. I may remove them...

That car confuses me...i like it, but I dont at the same time. The rally sticker in the window, the wing, the huge front splitter, the red wheels, and what looks to be quick release bumper ties NOT holding the bumper on.

[Trustkevin13]

^^^^ Those quick releases are the special release button things. http://www.fastwrx.com/products/move...-2008-2014-sti

[currymaciel]

Ahhh Ive never seen them before. Thats pretty cool because in Hawaii my stupid rubber straps get eaten by the rain and sun

New guy checking in.

I traded up from an 05' premium WRX to an 09' base. My buddy bought the car brand new, and I did every bit of maintenance on the car while he owned it. When it came time for him to buy a more "adult" car, I gave him the trade-in on his WRX. The car only has 63K miles on it.

Mods include:

Cobb catted dp
Quad tip SPT STI cat back from a 2013
Accesport Stage 2 tune
Cobb short throw shifter
GT spec steering wheel
BC BR coilovers
Whiteline sway bars front and rear
Cartboy endlinks
JNA front lip
Wingless deck lid
Work Meister S2R wheels 35mm offset
Rolled rear fenders (fronts could use it too)
Stereo/tint/etc.

I just got the ol' girl all cleaned up today and took a few pics with my phone, so the quality isn't that great:

[Shipman]

Thats a narrowbody that Id be happy to own.

I'm running them on my wrx as well. They're made by a shop up here ( http://moveoverracing.ca/ ) highly recommend them if your looking to run quick releases.

[Shinji Hirako]

I know this is probably the wrong place for this and I'm sorry in advance. But does anyone have access to cobb app install file for the tuner software for an 08 wrx. I have ap3. My tuner i currently doesn't have the install file for the software.

I believe he is talking about the Accesstuner RACE. Cobb has removed it since May and it might come back this month or next month.
