Pics of the First GC/GM Impreza with Rota Slipstreams

Yes, there are fender rubbing issues. Im gonna roll them this weekend. Until then, my suspension is running hard and im driving slow in the corners The rear strut has about 1cm of clearance, and when I get my alignment it should have even more. Plus, I think ill raise my front a little with my GC coilovers to get more clearance...
BTW, it was raining cats and dogs today and these tires KICK *** in the rain!!! I did 80 on a 45 mph sweeper (The marconi curve aka corner of death) without a problem in torential downpoor (I would agree it was dangerous, exept I consider my skills good enough not to push it THAT hard in the rain )
My brake problem also seems to have gone away with the sticky tires, so thats good... I also noticed the extra few pounds off the drivetrain equating to more acceleration
Im happy for sure, ill get better pics when the rain lets up (supposed to rain all week!)
