That's why I moved away from my V7 JDM wheels. It's a crime to paint those things any other color but the stock gold and I really wanted something different.
Then I ended up with gold wheels. LOL. least it's a different gold and I won't feel bad if I paint these gram lights. I really want black wheels or I have an idea for an odd version of olive drab. Just something different but not obvious. Been kicking around drab, a dark brown color and an odd gray.
And black with a slight twist. But I'm not gonna bother until my engine blows and the car is gonna be down. Right now I'm fine with the lighter gold.

Damn it. No Olive drab for me. Maybe navy gray or driftwood (new pantone color). Kind of a dark taupe.
Bah. Not gonna happen for a while anyways. Who knows, maybe I'll trade my way in to another set of wheels. I really want some xd9's. That or some gram light 57s. Those are the only 2 wheels on my radar right now. Maybe.... MAYBE DPT's with brand new tires. LOL.

Anyone know how the 2010 motors wire in to an 04 ECU? Do you need the ECU for the 2010?

"the first thing is you need is a
08+ wrx motor/ecu assuming that you want your dash/ac/car to work
the change in wiring to can-bus changed almost everything related to engine swaps
to do an 08 you really need a complete wrecked 08+ wrx"
the guy wants to swap an 08 wrx engine into 08 2.5i...don't know if it would be the same for your year

I totally forgot about that. Those things look sick!

First decent one I found...I never cleaned my wheels so it became brakedust over green so it has a very unique color haha

That was my old wheels I think over a year ago...my 04 stockers are the same color now, and I just got gunmetal tarmac3's that ill probably paint that color later haha
If I find better ones ill post up
