lol thanks for the input guys...i know it's a weird start but i like doing things a lil diff...plus my car is already trimmed in black so it really does bring the whole car out more...plus it was a guy about 10 mins from the house selling it and i got it for about 200 less then what i've seen on various wrx aftermarket sights.....but don't worry more will be done soon and the car will def. be dropped once i find the right feet for it
