2005 GD6 Project -- JDM & STi Spice, On budget.. Of coarse..

I always loved watching WRC on Speed channel. Couple years ago I used to watch Subaru and Mitsubishi go at it, only to be put down by those little Citroen's and Focus's. When it was my turn to get a new car I was immedately shown how much a WRX would cost insurance wise, Nearly twice as much as if I were to get a 2.5RS, The more subtle NA.
Well so I decided to get a 2.5RS.. Aspen white (of coarse white!) 2005 Impreza Pro. I said to myself, non-turbo subies are fun too! low-end grunt and fun driving nature swayed me toward it. Not only that but the Honda and JDM scene here is growing way to fast and played out, I needed to be different, start over and i'm glad I chose a car like the 2.5RS. I'm also on a budget, limited spending money and I have to fuel my JDM craze, so things like the Broadway mirror and Squash air freshner are musts!
For all those Subies enthusiasts, I hope you enjoy the progress i'm going at!

Third: STi Fog-Light Decal (Because it belongs!, Don't kill me!) and Debadge/JDM Subaru Badge

I wanted these badges for the Subaru, bought them dirt cheap, so why not, the rest are for sale if anyone wants?

Fourth: Tein S-Tech Springs --
-2.4 in Front -1.6 in Rear, Perfect drop for me. Installation was kinda tricky in front but nothing I wasn't used to doing on other cars, Fun, Handles and feels better than stock byfar!
