i just did it on my car, i spent ~4 hours from start to finish(and a few bad words here and there). i did all 3 grills though, but didn't do the top sections of the side grills. that would be too much red for my taste.
it isn't as easy as it seems to get those red lines straight. lol.

^agreed, its kinda tricky. I decided to prime and paint my grill pieces once I took them out :D
...the badge doesn't match, but it will be gone when I get my grill craft upper.

The black pieces look pretty good on your car. I have thought about doing the same on mine, but a glossy black.

Its just MS photo auto enhance to lighten up the very dark photo. The shop is dark and it looks horrible with a flash on. These are the originals, just resized, no enhancement.

thanks, I'm happy with the way it turned. I think the new grill will really bring it together, and maybe a red nd black STI badge for the corner.
...I used automotive plastic primer, and two coats of gloss black btw.

| Shiz36 | 03-25-2009 05:32 PM |
Is everyone still using the Prostripe striping? I've read posts about the color being a little orange.
Just curious what exactly everyone is using these days for this mod. Thanks.

I didn't use pro stripe. I went to kragen and just got the only red they had. It looks clean. And it took about an hour to do just the center on my 06. I'm not sure if I wanna do the rest or not. I did this with a broken wrist. It looks really good.

[QUOTE=ray101381;17493705]To those that have black cars beware that the "Prostripe" pin stripe stuff in Red isn't really a true red. It has an orange tint to it and is really far off from matching the Red on the 06+ WRX calipers. I had originally done it with the Prostripe brand red and then really disliked the color. I went out and bought 3M Brand scotchlite reflective red tape, problem was i could only find it in 1" width so i had to trim it. It came out very nice and matches MUCH better with the red on the calipers. It really is not very reflective. Good luck picture were with flash.

i did the middle nose on mine but it looked kinda funny, so i went ahead and did the two side grills too, but i didn't pinstripe the top portion of the side grills though, llooks better lol
| shep21 | 05-02-2009 06:16 PM |
^i did all three as well, and at first I didn't do the top of the side pieces, but if you get real low it looks kinda funny. So I re-did them all the way around after painting my grille. check my pic taken from low to the ground a few posts up and you can see what I mean.
heres a better one though...

yeah, my car is pretty much slammed though, so you can't really tell i left the top portion out until you get up close to it and check it out.

just got done doing mine, took about an hour after i removed the grill and the mesh. only takes so long if you want to make sure you do it right. i'll post some detailed pics of what i did later. very subtle but a nice touch i feel, breaks up the all black.

yeah it just takes some serious patience. the hardest part with mine was the corners in which i tapered it off towards the corner then used a back side of a butter knife to help press it into the corner. the part that hung off the back i then cut with a razor blade and folded inside. i also removed the mesh grill while installing which is a must.
