I'm only through page 2.... but I have to just chip in here with a "great job" - it's stuff like this that's going to be invaluable to me as I work on my car in the future. I like that you started out with some affordable, non-intrusive mods.... That's what I'll have to do, raised by a single mom dontcha know, and I don't know the second thing about engines.

^^Thanks! Yah small mods that aren't expensive and kill your wallet go a long way, when they start building up. Then you just run out and need to take the plung into some more expensive stuff. Starting off small is a good start, atleast your unique, that was my goal. I wanted to be different from all the other STi's eventhough I rarely see any! Lol.

Well, yesterday I got my winglets back from the bodyshop, and WOW, they did an AMAZING JOB! Perfect in everyway! So installation was a breeze, I just cut that stupid wire that ran around the inside of the wing. I did it all myself, would have helped if I had another helping hand, but I balanced it pretty nicely. Set the wing at the middle setting, the most aggressive setting is too much, plus you can see the hole on the side of the wing for the other setting. Here are some pics as they progressive to the finish piece! Car is more stable in the backend, and no more wobble from the wing, plus I can see more out the window, whatever it gave me! Thank you again Paperchasin for another great product and awesome dedicated service!!! Enjoy!

All pieces ready to be installed!


The Beautiful quality of work the bodyshop did for me!


Hmm wingless or Syms?


Where the winglets go and attach to, really easy to do!


Another money shot of the nice job they did!

After applying the weather stripping that Paperchasin supplied:


The final product!


Another money shot!!


Love this one:

And some lil gift I got myself!! Much love the for AP!

Nice wing, you need some shorter hangers for your exhaust bro.
