[Florin1]

Hello guys, and gals if there are any on the site. Heh. I figure since i keep tinkering with this car, i might as well make a build thread about it. Some of you probably seen the first page and a half, but its now a build thread. Thanks Josh.

is that the lip from a 06-07 wrx? Looks good

[evolutionmovement]

Wow. Love the black with the gray and the red accents.

[L-Tuned BD]

Super sexy! Nicely done, not overstated

[beatersubi]

Very clean. Nicely done.

Yup you can get them on ebay for about $70 shipped. Knockoff of the OEM lip which is $500+.

Your car is lookin good Florin. I got mine back on the road today.

[Florin1]

Thanks guys! Yeah, I'm more into the clean look. And good eye on the red accents Steve. Now I'm thinking about buying that JDM Nardi wheel with red stitching.

As for the "makeover", I added the Ebay lip (06/07 sti), cutout my grille and put mesh in it (painted), put Hellas behind the grille, hids, the jdm tiger stripes, black wrx rear seat, new wheels, whited out the turn signals in the tail lights, painted my body moldings flat black. And got it running. lol

looks great man, glad you found a set of seats. i might buy some for my daily RS too

Lookin good. Normally I don't like black wheels on this color but you got me wanting to try it on mine.

Are those hi/lo HIDs? or just normal ones? I'm contemplating buying a pair...People with bright headlights are one of the things that annoys me the most when driving, but I could really use the extra light if I can do it without blinding traffic.

Damn that's nice! Jester wants

Just regular HIDs. And the wheels are actually not black, they a metallic gunmetal. As for the brightness, i just aimed them down a little. I haven't yet been flashed by anyone.

Our cars look quite similar now. We've even got the same engine. Sort of. Is this the one you're going RWD with?

Ahh you're right, that might be why I like the color.

Yup it is. I just think I'm gonna wait till after the winter before i convert it. Unless i come across an sti differential now for a good deal.

[MikeyMeyagi]

wow, that looks really really clean! Nice car man!

[Florin1]

^ now if i only had the power you have...

[crashnburn]

your car almost looks exactly like my car. are those turn signals wired as parking lights also? that looks good.

[Florin1]

You're the first to notice that. Good eye. You recognize the seats?

[cartwheels]

That is incredibly sexy. As much as I love my WRX, the SS is just a nicer looking car, in my opinion.

[oskar_subaru]

how hard is it to fit that lip ?

[kimokalihi]

Not hard at all. Just buy the knockoff from ebay and get a heat gun and cut a couple chunks out of the bottom side to help the ends bend in more and screw it in.

[Florin1]

What he said. Took me about an hour.

[biggreen96]

If I cared much about the exterior of my wagon it would be sporting that lip. Looking good dude.
