WRX/STi body to WRC body style observation

shaolin9 · 02-03-2003, 12:11 AM

This is just a quick observation I seem have made (I'm sure others have too), but in order to convert a new WRX/STi to the WRC car style (larger flaring)... new back doors and front side panels would be needed.

I was at the car show today, and really liked the body style of the WRC, and was wondering what the exterior physical body differences were.

Here are some pictures of the doors I took at the show. I am just throwing these observations out...dont flame me if its WTLW or whatever... I know there may be body kits in the future, but I think new doors have to be installed to complete the look. The angling is very different. In any case just an observation...

i see them. and yes, the WRC fenders look beastly

it would be kinda like putting a 22b-esque fenders on a GC. a new, blistered door would be required.
