Installed a full 2011 WRX suspension in my Forester today and the JDM Forester badge on the front last night. Looks fantastic and handles so much better now.

Next on the list is new sway bars and end links for it.

This is what I have for now, I can get a better one for you tomorrow. I only bought the front "F" badge for now.

^Sweet. I swear between you and Jeff the urge to mod my '13 is getting hard to resist. If I'd only been tighter with my budget and not wanted tint, moon roof, rear recline, and all weather w/ heated seats.

Since I was stuck @ home w/ a sick daughter I took the time to finish fixing a couple more rattles and squeaks now that I know where they were coming from. Props to Capitol Subaru for helping with the right passenger front door speaker issue a week ago.

Funny thing is I haven't really spent much at all to get it to this point. Less then $2000 for everything on it so far.

Thanks Giibo! I am really enjoying it so far. Doesn't even have 1000 miles on it yet and I've already got the bug to tinker with it.

Its just a 2011 WRX sedan OEM exhaust. Bolts right up to the Forester. (As will all 2011 WRX sedan exhausts)
