    • Last year, a friend Mitch and I went halvsies in a 1999 Impreza SRX with the idea of beating it on the track when he's up from Queenstown and I'd personally use it a hack to take tramping and throw the bike in.   Recently I've started to tidy it up a little:   I think some new struts all round, 16" wheels with some better rubber and if I can some GTB sway bars, it will be a very fun little car, with no power
    • Minor updates test fitted the headlight covers, awaiting last of the parts to land then off to panel & paint.....Finally      
    • Added eyelids to headlights. Noticed when doing indicator bulbs the top of the lens was getting a bit worn. Looks like a mix of sun and dust blasted stripping off the top layer of polycarbonate.   Will add a door foam tape weather seal above headlights to seal to bonnet to stop the air travelling along top of lens in future.
    • Car all back in one piece. The roof rail clips all worked fine, but they really do need the 2 little tabs to prevent any movement. The tabs were missing from all but 1 clip when I took them off.  I found a couple in among the plant matter under the rails, but seems they get brittle and fall off.
    • Headliner back in, just need to tape A pillar wires back to the holders   Lost one bolt somewhere along the way. They were all screwed back in but some fell out when driving. Turns out they are all cage nut from datacenter phone sized, so easy to replace.   Painting went well, no spills or runs. Even colour matched well. Did the stone chips and roof gouge all with reasonable success.    Will give it 24 hours to cure then still the roof rails back on.
