I have something else in store for the front end, V-limited lips are everywhere and I'd just rip it off anyways

Thanks for the comments!

When you going to put that amp in? Maybe some supersize subs to accommodate them.

Amp is already in, with a PG 10" in a Duffman box

Not sure about the JDM light setup, but might try it, it reduces the amount of lighting more than I'd like, especially with no 3rd brake light.

Thanks, aaron & ave.
Glad other people dig the look.

No plans to clear the headlights, I dig the amber and it ties in with the amber sidemarkers. I think if I was going for a more "blingy" look with this car, with wheels with a polished lip, and more body mods, I'd do something with the headlights, but I think white cars get washed out really easily on the front when you start removing some of the color. I do think I'm going to do something with the Supertones (they're the crappy Indian ones) because there's too much going on in the grill area right now.

And yes, wingless FTW. I have a Mine's replica lip inthe garage, but I think I like the rear end clean with nothing on it; I might add an '06 rear diffuser instead of the Kansai setup I was considering as it fits the oem-type build I was going for.

Had to toss the winters on, I hate nails.
17x8 Rota boosts, bronze, 225/45/17 Yokohama Icegard studless snows.

Also, washed the car for the first time since going wingless since the paint was finally cured.

Remember, kids, friends don't let friends use HDR.

New wheels are MUCH better!

Every time I see another white STI done that well it makes me all warm and mushy.
