Swift or Crucial or coilovers.

Try out a bunch of set-ups and see what you like. It is a love/hate trial/error thing.

wheelwell

rims look good, painting the inside of your wheelwell would make it look even better a couple coats of black high temp will make your rims stand out more, once you do it you youll wonder how you every went without

When you say wheel wells? do you mean the fender wells? Because I did paint the backside of the wheels, thats what i would call wheel wells...how would you go about painting the inside of the fender wells?

ok well I haven't posted anything new about the car recently because well...there is nothing to report (new mods). I do however discovered an amazing product that actually works!

I don't how many of you guys have the same problem, but my 2002's headlight lenses were completely destroyed from the 5-almost 6 years of road ware. The scratches, foggy looking spots, and grime wasn't as noticeable until I blacked out my headlights. After doing so, the spots and grime showed up a lot better with the new black background that I had provided for them. Disappointed in how the lenses took away from my new blacked out headlights, I thought i would never be able to truly be happy with them...until I discovered this product called Blue Magic Headlight Lens Restorer.

Like most auto products, I'm always a little hesitant to believe in them, but i went against my instincts and bought the five dollar product and tried it out this weekend after i washed my car. Amazing difference and made the blackedout headlights look 100000000% better. I would recommend this product to anyone. Ill post pics of the before and after.

Thought i would post it just to give those fellow suby owners who are suffering from the same problem i was with my headlights.

As I had said in the previous post that when I got off my lazy a** and uploaded the pics to my photobucket, I would post them here.

I think it made a dramatic difference. Hard to tell from the pics but def. dramatic difference in person. Overall a great product that I would def. recommend to people with the same problem of foggy or yellowed headlights.

Just in case anyone was interested in the product, here is a pic of it. You can buy it at any local auto store like kragen or autozone, costs around 5-6 bucks for a bottle.

Well it has been awhile since I've posted on this but thought I'd put a post out of what is next for my car.

1.) Falken Azenis Rt-615 in 225/50/16
2.) Another set of stock wrx rims for auto x
3.) Whiteline Front and Rear sway bars with Whitlines front and rear endlinks
4.) Swift Springs (hopefully)

With that said. Since I really dont care about these stock rims since they will be used for auto x, what color should I paint them?

Any ideas work for me!
