I did it, it's a ***** lol! The only thing is u gotta close the holes with rubber washers or plugs cuz the rain gonna get inside. The removal is detailed on nasioc i think, or maybe scooby mods. Take out roof liner and remove bolts. I'm gonna order the roof rack rail delete replacements to cover up the gap left. PM me if u got more questions, woot!

i took 6 fricken hours. that was because there was one stubborn bolt i could not loosen. my back right "oh ****" handle bar. the whole headliner must come off, but in order for you to do that you must remove the dome lights, sun visors, all the "oh ****" handle bars, and all the pillars. easy, but very time consuming.

I don't like the look without the thingies on the top...I dunno it just doesn't look manly/sporty anymore.

That and when people delete the spoiler...just looks like a regular Impreza then.

Sup Keoni. Thanks for the compliments. I got that left fender repaired, and have since switched out those GramLights and now have some new shoes on. You should do the roof deletes. I love the look..........much cleaner, and I for one, would never use them.
