Imprezza mods to a 340 1.4DL??? Insane!

Post by 340maverick » 07 Apr 2005 12:10 am

Hi everyone,

After seeing Special's avatar, which he cunningly edited with photoshop I rekindled an idea I had. What about putting a full imprezza bodykit onto Maverick (my 340DL)?

With a little research and £50 for the entire kit (don't you just love breakers yards hehe) I have today successfully adapted a subaru imprezza front bumper to fit my 340, and what a sight it is.

Only problem is... I have to wait for the latching kit to come from ebay to secure it, but I think I can wait lol


If anyone has any ideas of other mods that would 'spruce' up Maverick, let me know. Hopefully I'm going to make it to the meet this Sunday but I might be on call, but here's hoping I won't be.


Chris.

Ps. On the lookout for some wiper arms for the headlights - any going spare??? :340:
