I think his car is a wrx, it came with it with foglights. So im guessing he had a fmic put it so he just took out the foglights and just left the cover on?

yup you got it. It's just the stock fog light covers but you know what i've looked around at aftermarket brake ducts like from chargespeed. It's basically the same crap so save some money and just use the wrx stock fog light covers. Ehh just throwing it out there. It might become the new trend

Great idea! I'll just have to check and see if there's a way to attach hosing to the back of those covers or maybe stub it through the hole and pin it. Thanks.

If the above is not complied with the monitors should remove the offenders post.Can I have a VOTE on this?

You get grandfathered out of any regs (for this post), Nice pics and wheels by the way.So you should vote yes.You have to ask yourself "Even though I can id at least 50 sets of wheels on sight do I really want to spend 4 hours some nite searching every stinking wheel merchant on the web trying to figure out what some hot set of wheels on a fuzzy post really are? Well do ya bunkie? (Old comedy line).Anyway from now on I'm gonna reply these "could be" a hot set of wheels IF,IF we knew anything about them.

if you look at my first post I mention that these are 18x8.5 svn wheels. I didn't mention the offset but it's a 48+ offset. 5x100 lug pattern. If your interested in buying a set contact subydude they can get you a great price. Svn is made by rota wheels. Rota ships the wheels from the phillippines. Umm i'm more then happy to answer any other questions if you have any. =) If you plan on getting a set the proper tire size to go with is 245-40-18. However if your car is lowered you should either cut ur fenders or roll them because you will rub. Hope that was helpful.
