ive never been a fan of bags but if you dont plan on driving hard and only want looks i say go for it.

my personal motto was bags are for quitters and ive had some reallllly low cars. and when they cant go up my driveway (mine is a 90 degree one also) they stay parked on the street

Why all the flaming? A Subaru on bags would be bad ***! All you people that like the ""Oh yeah im hella flush bro"" could actually make your car functional and drive it!

good for you bro, would love to see a build thread on how your going to do this! Will probably involve notching your frame, storing a compressor in your trunk, and numerous other suspention/frame bits. Good luck man!

Bags are a lot of work. The systems are kinda pricey and the cost to get it all installed can't be cheap either.

Here's a pretty well documented build thread for a '05 RS. The Bagged Impreza Build - StanceWorks



Some say that bags are for groceries...

Cool, I have been in some lead sleds on bags that the ride felt pretty darn good, definitely not for the track though, Go for it bro, just make sure to put some titanium blocks under it so you can shoot some sparks on the freeway!

Why did I use so many commas?

I'm surprised this wasn't the first thing posted in this thread.



Not a fan of bagging, but everybody has their own thing so enjoy
