Wow! That is easily one of the better transformations of any car on this board! To think it started out nonturbo, FWD, with 130hp, and now has turbo, AWD, and 300hp!!!
No need for a poll is right. When you dust an STi with that thing, it is most definitely worth it

I dont think i'd get that bumper from aerotech, not that it looks bad but shipping and fees are expensive as all hell. I think it was like 1000 usd more than the bumper. (I called on it a while back)

i suppose its all relative. you get big points for defending the nest though. you guys, while having generally poor aesthetic tastes, do circle the wagons well. and i can appreciate that.
p.s. i just think lame decals plastered all over a car that has a serious mill kind of defeats the whole sleeper concept. plus its tacky and redneck. sweet motor though dude!
p.s.s. you guys are mean, i like(d) both my wagons.

A) It needs to be washed.
B) You need a better box in the back. That one is obviously not correct for the car - too heavy!
Remove stickers, paint hood, car will look good.

I recommend gutting it and tinting the windows. Like so:
It will really haul then, thats about 100 lbs, plus more if you strip the a/c and other crap.

Put spinner hubcaps on it and an APC banner on the windshield, I don't give a rats' ass. It's still one of the fastest cars on this board.
