I just want it to look clean, then I'll try to make it look like a JDM STi.
cool, i just ordered a small can of cgm touch up paint to get mine to look a little cleaner. i'm still looking for some gold paint that matches the brembo's to paint my wheels with.

Aaron - +1 why I kinda didn't want brembos. The rotors & pads are pretty damn expensive! And there are better BBKs out there for about the same price range if not a few bucks more. I really want an STi.

Hi, kids.

FWIW, I'd go with Stoptechs over Brembos. 2 piece rotors, more common and cheaper pads, etc. I'm not going to drop coin to replace the Brembos, but I like the feel of the Stoptechs on the wagon better.
Man your car is clean. I am buying a wingless trunk and painting it SWP soon so I can swap back and forth. I bet I can get a full set of Brembos for $500 (possibly trading) and swap it sooner than if I saved up and bought a different kit.

I love your car... seriously it's sick!

but sybir there are a few key sti things i bet you wouldn't want to give up
cosmetically... the rear flares on the 05+, the front splitter, more aggressive scoop, you have wrx not sti side skirts, so i guess you traded or it came like that. i think wrx skirts are better with the lines of an 04-05 though

The STi just looks better

Well I want a P2
Would you ever sell your RS and upgrade to a gd STi?

Haha if you read this you are slick. It's a "secret message" so Lorin can still surprise most people. Lorin's getting his STi this week!!!! WOOT!

Troof. Realistically, the rear flares and the splitters would require large chunks of bodywork and paint, and the rear flares are functional; the front splitters I like the look of, so they can stay. The hood scoop will always be big
I really just wanted to nuke the big wing and goofy sideskirts.

Car was a box stock '05 with wheels when I bought it; I bought another trunk, WRX sideskirts, Tein mono flex's, etc etc etc in the last two months.
