Welcome to the club. If/When you do install HIDs, plan on clearing the lights at the same time (or at least taking the housings apart). On the cutoff plate, there is a small rectangular hole under the shield that you need to fill in (I used a high-temp aluminum putty). If you don't, you'll get a good amount of light above where the cutoff line should be and cause glare for on-coming traffic.

Here is the cutoff on my car with a McCullough 4300K kit;


And my JDM bumper (which is currently at Creative Kustoms getting repainted);

figure hey....if he can do an enzo he can sure as **** do a legacy..haaa.
i was also looking at a STI but as the looks suck i decided to go for the GT as it is also comfortable for my 2 year old. She as already told me the first day she sat in the car seat daddy nice daddy nice.

Sweet, sweet car. I drooled on the one at Carlsen a couple times.

Personally, the aluminum suspension pieces make me forget the HIDs...

It has the same hp as the current one. Check out nKoans response to the exact same question. These two threads need to be merged.

I like how they advertise the tire pressure warning system like it's a luxurious feature. The NHTSA is requiring it for new cars, it's nothing special. The car itself is special though. Very, very special. Lucky jerk. :P
