Looking good !
I think I saw your car tonight in downtown San Mateo (or another car like yours with an I-Club sticker). Around 6-7 PM.

Update:
Did some more DIY stuff. Painted the WRX wheels bronze (Duplicolor) and did the DIY clear corners. Couldn't afford "real" JDM ones and couldn't find any on eBay. Also got the JDM Pink I Badge.

Is that thing repainted? Subaru paint generally sucks but yours looks great.

Nope, it's original paint. There are a ton of small scratches and swirl marks everywhere, but from far away it looks decent.

Where did you get your tail lights from? I really like the look and have been thinking about getting some for mine.

Holy blast from the past.

Here's the car in its current state. It's used to commute daily from Daly City to Santa Clara.




Since then, I've added:
- RS hood
- Prodrive Roundtip Axleback
- Borla UEL Single Port Headers
- WRX midpipe
- WRX front seats
- JDM corners
- New, slightly wider A/S tires.

I've got an OEM Compass Pack coming next week.

Hoping to get a new suspension setup (struts/springs) by the end of summer, or coilovers if I can score a good deal .

I like what you've done so far keep the updates coming and definitely go with bronzing the wheels.
