Default 04 Silver STi

in short i bought this STi on March 28, 2008 its a used 04 STi, previous owner racked up 90k miles. none the less the car is in great mechanical shape no issues, leaks, clanks or other big problems. the Clutch is slipping a bit nothing drastic, but i have an ACT stage2 Clutch and Light Flywheel waiting to be installed. there are a few minor door dings here and there and the front splitters took on some ice and will need replacing soon.

Previous owner had also installed the following (Autometer Boost Gauge, Kartboy short shifter, BCRacing coilovers, TurboXS Turboback exhaust w/high flow cat, Cobb Accessport engine management system, Injen short ram intake, and new NGK Spark Plugs)

so as you can see most of the basic stuff has been upgraded already. now im not looking to make the fastest STi, or to race it. I just want a good looking car with an mean exhaust note. I currently have no plans for performance upgrades but am looking to work over the body.

the car is silver sti with Silver stock 17" BBS rims, I'm planning on first repairing the front splitters, and minor dents. once thats finished I'll be getting the ravspec's mirrors, or l'aunsports version. those will go on quickly afterwards, I'm torn between saving cash and getting 4 Perrin stiffi's or the l'aunsports WRC replica wing, the wing would be painted to match the car, but mirrors will be CF.

Below are pictures of the car in its current state.
