Stage 2 Pics :

[uncle lewie]

Always love to see a STI owner who takes care of their car and is detailing it.

[AndrewSS]

Car is looking good

[Gondy]

Thanks guys. It's hard to keep it clean since its my DD, but I try to give her a wash every weekend! I'm thinking about doing another round of Zaino detailing before the winter arives to try and keep all that nasty winter grime off the car.

Alright well maybe I lied about no more mods this year... I'm contemplating getting a cai, fuel pump, and protune. And maybe in the winter I will get some defi gauges... I guess we will see what happens

[Henry G]

Looking good!

[alphaSTI]

I need to wax my car now after seeing yours... Good job!

[Gondy]

Just added an exhaust clip to the bottom of my 1st post... enjoy!

Planning on installing my amp and sub this weekend, as well as claybarring all the white paint that somehow got splashed on my baby ?!?!?

No plans for any new serious mods at the moment

[nice-rice]

Looks good so far, and those ebay rims are kind of sweet. Nice find.

[SubaSTi04]
