CHEAP

they maybe cheap but I like them more then some of the other lights out there. and plus they are affordable, I dont believe in paying over 300 dollars for some headlights is necessary, I would rather pay 150 for something that I like.In other words to me they bring out the wrc in a car and thats what I was looking for:banana: thanks for your opinion though

$300 ? I wish. Try $700-$1000 for aftermarket WRX headlights. Damn, I wish I have lots of money laying around, would be nice to have them. For now, that money is well spent making my car go fast.:banana:

i think its a dandy idea to have a rst because the insureance company won't know that you have a turbo since they think you still drive a NA impreza. from your experience so far, is there any engine trouble? i've been debating if i should save up for a turbo for my rs. 7 grand for the whole setup isn't bad since it will be as fast as an sti plus the insurance company won't know a thing.
