I regret painting my engine bay covers, I wished I left them black...

 

Initially, I regretted getting 8.5 inch rims with too aggressive an offset because when I lowered it I had to get the rear guards rolled. Hindsight's a wonderful thing.

But like a previous poster in this thread, whenever I look at the car and the stance it has, I think it was worth the hassle.

All other mods have brought only joy. Love my short shifter and truly believe those who don't at least replace the sways with something stiffer are missing out on what this car is really capable of in the twisty stuff. Improving the ignition system with better plug leads and keeping an eye on the coils is also worth the money.

 

Damn, no teaser pictures! Are you still keeping the Veilside wide body or did you get that changed as well?

 

^I ve changed everything in and out of the car and under the hood offcourse...This week we r finishing the 4 doors..And then front-rear hood-trunk and fenders etc etc...

Although i wish i ve sold it cause i dont have a car for 8months now!!!DAAAAAAAAAAMN

 

This was my first thought when I saw this thread
I also regret purchasing my under drive pulleys, but I do like the way they look.

 

i regret using a crappy stereo place to put in my sub, it has problems. i regret blacking out my taillights a little, especially around cops. i regret using cheap paint on my calipers because i need to redo them now.

 

^ouch...

 

I regret buying a new 360, instead of mods...

 

I would say my only regret is spending all the money I have on all my other mods lol. Hell I am a third away from my Pettit S/C. No really though, I have thought about and researched all my mods before I have bought them and I am very happy with them so far.

 

I regret getting the ms side sirts and rear more than a year ago,
parts are just collecting dust.

 

I regret not getting a Manual every time I drive my car..... I can't wait until it dies so I have an excuse to by a used one

 

if it ain't broke, go mess with it...

 

+1...

 

I regret not getting the dealer to put the fricken stock WHEELS back on the car when I bought it. The online ad didnt have them...then when I met them...I think they figured cause I was black...they'd throw CHROME on dat bitch. When I came back...they were on the car...

I did not know however they are 18x7.5's....

 

^ Maybe you can swap someone with stock rims on here.

I regret the first owner getting the authentic MS rear on my car and nothing else.

I regret not parting out my heavily modified WRX before trading it for the 8. Now I have no money to modify it with.

 

17” Enkei GF1 wheels and Yokohama Ice Guard snows – I actually love the wheel set for winter. On more than one occasion this winter, I drove through snow deep enough to drag underparts of my car and watched other cars spin off the road on ice around me. These tires turned my car into a tractor and still handle well enough for winter. I also appreciate the extra side wall for early spring potholes and frost heaves in Michigan.

What I regret is that I now have to go back to my stock rims and tires or drop a large chunk of cash to get rims I find aesthetically pleasing.
