PROJECT BUILD

Bill Vitale is the owner and designer of this sick black 2006 WRX STI. "Project STI" began in September 2006, when he became inspired to build a car that was aggressive, yet clean. For Bill customizing cars is a way of expressing himself, whether it's to increase aesthetic value or overall performance, he believes every modification has a purpose. Bill's experience in modifying came at an early age, when he began building cars with his father.
The STI has been worked on in various locations and he gives credit to many people who contributed to his project. Bill's expertise and know-how in customizing is obvious; just take a look at any of his cars. For Bill, customizing is an on going process, his future plans are always changing and evolving.As of now he's looking to include a rotated turbo set-up, custom exhaust, and a new set of track wheels and tires. Bill's humble attitude is undoubtedly noted and appreciated. The import tuner industry could definitely use more people just like him!

"I'm building this car for me. Not to show any up, not to impress judges and not to be the fastest car on the street. The car is built with my creativity and tastes in mind, and thats how i believe every car should be built" -Bill Vitale

Striaght on the front bumper looks nice but from an angle im not a huge fan but that is one clean car.
 
It's a marmite kit .

Personally I like it on the black car but have seen one on a blue hawk and don't like it at all .

Few quid gone into it . Nice bus
 
Can look very well with the right bits added to it
usually looks terriblle as people add the wrong bits
The Litchfield spec c that sold a while back has the sideskirts from this kit I think
the same ones you see on the RCM cars AFAIK
