You may be able to fit a bolt on rear wiper hole plug thing from a poverty spec 106...
I've liberated 2 from Persley but they're currently in use.
I'll keep and eye out for another.

You should maybe buy a new front reg plate also... that one just gives the police an excuse to pull you over (if one was ever needed).
Legally you need a 11mm gap between the first/last digit and the edge of the plate.

I'm a bit wary of it...just with it being so much bigger than what I'm used to....
but it does seem a lot more planted and a lot less twitchy than the impreza....and I've had that out on track with no probs
after a few track days it should be fine....just hope it's not raining on the first one
got one booked for next Sunday...and then I'm taking it to a SIDC track day the following saturday....so I'll get lots of practice! hehe

not sure why but I always percieve the 32's to be really hard to drive, suppose with loads more power it would be a bit more tricky
Good luck on the track days

Topped up the brake and transfer box fluid.
Cleaned the brakes.... couldnt get the calipers off but gave the a spray with penertrant so i'll try again when its getting new pads. Had the pads out and gave them a clean.... car stops a bit better now. Will need to drain fluid and fill/bleed with 5.1 when new pads are here.
