So, finally got my summer 18s on. The snow tires are now on the old 17s...
Also, you can see the CF mirrors I put on a couple weeks ago. All I have left in my garage to play with is my STI wagon waist wing ~ getting nervous. Need to get more parts!

I'll tell you what ~ you try and work with a 'two tone' car!

Yeah, I hear you man. Who cares what other people think. If you like them, that's all that matters. My parents hate the color of my SubZero wheels.

Yes, it revved much freer and seemed to accelerate better as well, no idle issues, no CELs!
wow good to hear! might havta do that to my OBS this summer. The only "mod" i've done so far on the car is have it painted WRB. I'm just working on some aesthetic stuff for now and wait till my warranties are up before i play around with the engine. next things on my list are sti front end splitters, wrx side skirts, and maybe aeroguards.
btw, your cars lookin sweet and i bet it performs real good too! i see you've cleared your headlights too. those def. work better for your car. that orange would just look out of place
