I should have the GT7 wheels on both cars in the next 2 days...they would look good next to your S203's .

Well I decided to get the BBS RE's (S203 wheels) once I saw them on Kevin's car so they won't be here until Wednesday. We took a picture of the trio though

Enjoy

And here's some pics of Kevin's RE's. After we put them on I cancelled my order for the GT7 and orderd the RE's. If they look this good on silver...I can only imagine on my blue one

Just got the 18" BBS RE's on with Dunlop Super Sport Race tires. I was a bit worried about the 40 offest, but they fit fine and look great . I also put on the hotchkis competition swaybars and there is literally zero roll now.

Next thursday the TEIN Super Street coilovers with EDFC are going in. The following week the Cobb turboback should be going in as well.

Pics of the wheels to come tomorrow in the daylight!

Were the headlights from the wagon 04 usdm STi hid's or just regular wrx headlights?

Why not just clear the other set with the black housing?

The lights in the wagon were the JDM STi HID's. Now it has the stock 05 STi HID's.

The reason for not clearing them? Any time you open up a light it can lead to problems. Once you break the seal you run in to the possibility of moisture building up inside the lights and all kinds of other things. It was much easier for me to just swap out the lights from one car to another.
