WRX Passed Recon!
After footing the bill to replace my front end and yanking out all my hair, the suby has finally passed recon this morning. Although it just wouldn't be a true Hawaii experience without failing safety too, but I expected that. Just minor things with safety though so I wont complain. My baby will be on the road soon! Let me know if any of you have questions about recon. Thanks to those who helped me out through the process!

what was their take on you not having amber reflectors on the tails? I recently bought some jdm tails for my sf5 which are basically the same as GGA and GD (visually) because paying 100+ for stock replacements was ridiculous. they have all the same markings as the stocks (DOT) just minus the amber top lens.

Im going to assume your car is lowered. If so how did you pass recon? I currently have coilovers and my inspector said Subarus in specific cannot pass with coilovers. something about the stock suspension already being stiff or something like that. any help appreciated, mahalo

Too my knowledge a Subaru wont even pass a bounce test on stock suspension which has always chapped my ***, but that seems to be the way most auto laws are around here.
