Converting 04-05 wrx to sti look alike??
ok so i was wondering, i'm getting a wrx, i know they both are pretty similiar toone another. but i like how the sti looks. ur probably like "u like how the sti looks, why not get the sti?" simple answer: gas milage! hahaha. anyways, do u know what parts i'll need for that? because the only difference i can see is the side skirts and spoiler.. where would i buy it?
so can i just buy the OEM parts and just install them?

Don't forget the HID setup, and also fender flares (?), I don't know what you call them.
***Only pic I had of a "STi" cause I love his wing and rear.

Just settle with hood scoop, wing, side skirts, and fog light covers. Thats about it for outside appearance. The rear wide fenders are 05+ sti. Pretend your pretending to have a 04 sti lol.
