Wow dude that is hella mean looking, all black on the outside.

Gosh damn I'm so in love with your car. Just got to look at my friends Silver 08 in his garage, 08's grow on me more and more as time passes by. I might have to trade my 04 in now

Paikman that looks so sick man, I love how that looks. Your doing a great job with this build so far. To everyone that thinks salesmen at dealerships are a bunch of D-bags...most are, but i kind of resent that, due to the fact that I am 26 and work for Subaru in sales. Love my Stage 2 08 though, full exhaust should be here today pics to follow shortly, sorry for the thread jack. Props Paikman do the 08 proud man. Big

Sorry to hi-jack your thread even though I <3 your 08, but like munky says. I'll keep my car, and if and when I can afford a 08 as well I will have both cars, til then

Yes get that lip and that hood, balling!!!!!!!!!!

The ride quality is actually NOT bad at all. I even have the upgraded spring rates of 10kg / 8kg rear
I drove back from IAG on 2 hours of harsh I95 with lots of expansion joints and bumps, it was fine.
Here's some pics from IAG

Dude! are you kidding? Get your windows tinted and you will have the exact same setup as I am planing. Those wheels look awesome!
