2011 impreza 2.5i

Hopefully going to get

Rally innovations.com light bar
Hella flood lamps
Full xenon HID 10000k kit
And Tsudo S2 catback exhaust.

Now I know my car isn't a Wrx, insurance is to expensive. But if you have any other input or thoughts about it let me know.

Interesting list.

Why these things?

Hopefully you're not too attached to those parts because I have some bad news.

That HID kit needs to be removed from the list. Everything else looks good.

I have the halos in the front headlight and love them that's something to consider. Little tough though...

Disclaimer: Not trying to be a dick or anything. Just lending some information and insight.




The RI bars for the '08-'11 Impreza are crap. RI has made some great bars for previous generations but for the third generation, they completely dropped the ball and I try to advise people away from them.

The Hellas are good. All of Hella's products are top notch. But if you were planning to mount them to your RI bar. Well... You going to have a bad time.

I think HIDs are fine. The '08-'11 housings work pretty well with them. Although Brfatal will insist that HIDs be done by the book. My gripe with your choice is the color temperature. Why 10k? Those are going to be incredibly blue and on the verge or useless.

And then the catback... Tsudo does make a catback for the '08-'11 Impreza. They call it "N1" as it's an N1 style exhaust. No big deal. But the S2... The S2 is a Scion exhaust. You're probably going to have some problems with that.

It said on the website that the s2 was a Wrx. But if the N1 is specific then that works just as well! I like the blue look of 10k also.

What would be your recommendation for a light bar that could mount 2 or 3 big lamps?

You could build one yourself and make it exactly how you like it.
