Then surely the JDM on your car is nothing other than Irony Nic? Unless it's a company that have helped develop/made parts for your car.

its what the internet is there for. people to moan on about things when the people involved arent there to punch them in the face.
i really couldnt care about impreza owners that sticker there cars up or wear the coats. it doesnt bother me. just shows theyre proud owners of their brand of car. like hell you'd see people walking about with a corsa t shirt on. id honestly wear a corsa sport t-shirt to crail or other drag days or things i go to. theyre a good bunch of enthusiasts the preza lot if you ask me.

I depadged mine & stuck a small prodrive sticker on, as it had factory PPP tunning pack & handling pack............not a sti mudflap in sight 

But yeah some of them go daft with the stickers................some have jackets too.

dont tar them all with the same brush
as said, its mainly middle age men
555 jacket/caps/rucksack crew are shameful though - there really is no need

hey, if it floats their boat why not!
Younger folk wear daft clothes and call it fashion. All you idiots walking round with your trousers (or are we so american now we are calling them pants) round the bottom of your arses. Pants on show etc.
I'd rather wear the full blue 55 gimp suit that look like that 
Yes - I own an impreza
No - I dont own any 555 branded clothes. I have a SIDC tshirt somewhere though.
