I'm not a fan of body kits, but when you add the two tone on top of that it just kills it

Pictures dont do the car justice, in person, it is a sweet lookin STI. The black roof if sooooo glossy, it is VIPER black.

What's wrong with the grill/hood alignment on the white STi?

yea im with dark, the two tone looks funny. To me, the sti is already a great looking car so exterior mods to me should be subtle like rims (not that subtle but an upgrade over stock) and a few things here and there. I would get rid of the body kit and repaint the car all white. Not sure what kind of performance mods he has on the sti but i would do more on performance.

Just my .02

To be honest, we are a great community, but its the intarweb dude. People are naturally going to talk more **** just because they can . Don't take it to heart.

Did you expect every single person who saw your pictures to like your ride?

You could have the most awesome ride in the world, but there will always be someone who doesn't like it (I hate the 08 STi and the new Skyline myself).

You have to take the good with the bad. If you're happy with your ride then that is all that really matters.

You should trade exhaust since the 3in on your 2.2 isn't helping at all.
