I haven't done much so far, but I know I will and started this to keep track of how the car's progressed This is my 3rd Subaru...

First was my 2004 wagon, basic vf34 and supporting mods





Then I traded it in on a 2006 STi which I was just barely able to bring myself to sell. I loved this car but I really missed/needed the functionality of a wagon or hatchback.





And that brings me to the 2008 STi

Current Mods:
- cobb accessport
- invidia catless downpipe
- aem intake
- spec-c ra-r shift knob
- chargespeed bottomline replica kit
- duplicolor metalcast painted tails
- sports grill
- magnaflow catback exhaust
- blacked out rear bumper reflectors
- hardwired radar detector
- 18x8.5" rota g-forces w/245/40/18 Falken Ziex ZE-912 for winter

I bought the car with the base 5 spokes, and almost immediately ordered the baysonR style front lip



then I sold the 5 spokes and replaced them with 18x8.5 Rota G-Forces



next was the bottomline sideskirts and rear spats







after that I ordered some tail light overlays and installed the magnaflow exhaust. I've had absolutely no problems with the magnaflow, it fits perfectly, makes no weird noises like others report, and the tips looks great.



then I decided to switch the baysonR style front lip for the bottomline lip to match the rest of the kit... something about the mismatch just bothered me.

I wasn't happy with the overlays, too many imperfections if you get up close, so I decided to strip them off and painted the tails with duplicolor metalcast and some clear coat I had from an old paintscratch order.

I've always loved the 08 BBS wheels and was disappointed that I didn't spring for them when I got the car, so I found a good deal and decided to pick up a set. The plan is to paint them a gloss black over the winter.



The Rotas are for sale btw

[blueteamno]

and the most recent mods are the sports grill and bbs logo centercaps. i think this grill makes the car look less like an suv, and with the new cenercaps i think that brings the exterior down to 8 sti logos

I normally don't like the sports grill but looks great on your car. the bbs center caps are a nice touch with the blue lugs

Very good taste! I love the progression

What wheels are those on the white STi? That looks amazing! Very nice taste BTW.

[blueteamno]

thanks for the comments!

The wheels on the white one were oem Spec-C RA-R's. They're the exact same size and offset as the stock 08 wheels though, if I didn't want something a little wider I'd definitely get a set for my 08.

looks good, is the car lowered at all?
