post up some NICE FIXED UP FXT please!!
Hey guys,
I am thinking about trading in my EVO for a FXT.. Some may ask WHY? well, Im just tired of that boy-racer image, and want something mature and different.
But I wan to see some fixed up FXTs before making my decisions...So Please post some tastfully done FXTs, no tacky bodykits n such.. I am not a big fan of outrageous bodykits.. Preferably STi bodypieces, lowered with nice wheels!
Thanks in advance!

Here's mine...
It's not the latest picture though. It's been lowered an inch or so with STi Forester springs since then, and is currently sitting on anthracite Prodrive P7's...

i know in a recent issue of sport compact, one of the editors talked about making his Father's XT handle "less like a truck" buy adding WRX suspension, new tiers and some other stuff(sorry, i dont remember what those other things were).

The Forester will sit lower about 1.5" or so with stock WRX suspension

Go take some driving lessons, rack up half a million + miles of driving, and then come out and play with me little boy!!
[sarcasm]Your post is the most thoughtful, insightful, and meaningful post to this entire thread!! [/sarcasm]
Of course, since you know NOTHING about Foresters, you wouldn't know that the Forester team came in third place in the ALCAN 5000, that the Forester smoked a bunch of other teams in the One Lap of America, and that Foresters are starting to pop up suprising the hell out of Audi, BMW, Mazda, Nissan, Toyota, and Mercedes owners everywhere. BTW, Foresters with large, heavy boxes in the back can STILL school a Porch Boxster!!
