    you've not seen a good job then.

    A good wrap will be done in to the shuts. (doors, boot and bonnet) Yes the bay wont be done, but you see alot of paint jobs the same... Or cars that just have a black engine bay...

    I'd have bought it based upon the info I've seen of it if it was a more neutral colour. For most, the cost to respray will be considerably more than £350. Another 1 on the front more likely.

    I'm not jumping on Alex I do see your point but if you had done it yellow or violet it would be sold and gone now I'm fairly confident on that at your price but at the end of the day it not and it will sell at some point if not then you not listing anything as there only going up and up anyway

    My budget wouldn't allow me to have a re spray on it.
    my nova is my second car....not nearly half the value of my impreza!

    however, top car with spec and effort that's gone into it. Someone out there will want it just the way it is I'm sure.

    still a ton of stuff to do:
    Replace the rear panel with a hatchback version to convert to a full sized tailgate
    Replace the roof panel
    Install coolant pipework
    Few hours of wiring still needed
    Install dash, seats, interior trims
    Modify GMS side skirts to suit saloon arches and add LED's for indicators

    Loads more than this but that will get it on the road at least
