That's a clean lookin' fozzy you got there. Now we have another person in the bunch.

We definitely need a Forester meet. There will be about... oh... 5 of us, probably. Haha

Yeah love the BBS on the forester. Super light and understated to the untrained eye. I do wish they were at least 17x8, but that would require a 5x114 conversion that is not a priority for me.

Previous owner had put in 04 WRX sedan struts and 07 WRX wagon springs. It's no coilover, but at the same time it rides really comfortable. I love the ride height of the wagon springs, which is quite a bit lower than stock. Looking to have LIC put in a Whiteline Roll Center Kit to help compensate with the geom. on the front end since it's so much lower than stock.

So this is/was the one Lic was prepping for sale and had a feeler ad out on? If so nice grab!

Also, I spot a DetailAddict plate frame. Next time you're gonna be down here (my office is like 3 blocks away) pm me a day ahead. Same if you'll be down @ GST for a Saturday.

This is not the LIC Foz. That one is an 04-05.

As for the DetailAddict frame, that was from the precious owner. It will be replaced with LICmotorsports ones as I have been with those guys since 2004, and in those 9 years have never been dissatisfied with their services.
