Lots of reasons:
1) It's a mod that can help avoid Ringland Failure
2) The cost here over a used STi one is only $200 more.
3) Due to having a 4-speed, I'm always in boost at highway speeds.
4) They look cool.

Mounted (but not wired) the first of two auxiliary lights. Extended one of the 8mm bolts used for mounting the hood on. Sprayed some bed liner on the zinc coated brackets to help fight rust. And when they are ready to be wired in, I will be using 130w KC Daylighter bulbs.

Later that night, a pal with a JDM Toyota GT-Four went out for a drive. I took as few pics when we had a break.

Not sure how long it will last (fabric quality is not all that great) But I modded the shifter boot this past weekend
