Yea that's what I was leaning towards doing, I just can't make up my mind whether I want a CF or not. Thanks for the advice (and the compliment) though!

Getting several things next week, including clear corners, black strakes, window tinting... and looking into a kit. Anyone have any suggestions on a decent price for a MS kit?
Oh yeah, east side of columbus, ohio and just over two months in!

i accidently went too far in a parking spot last week...now i have a nice little spider web crack on the very tip of the lip from the curb

That is a skill that takes a while to learn. It took a while to get used to not pulling up so damn far. I was so nervous when I first got the lip I would be a good 5 feet from the curb and the *** of the car would be out in the road.

I cheated. I took the pics right after I turned on the lights. Makes it look cooler. Thinking about upgrading to 6000k anyway though.

Yeah, sold all my parts. Turbo kit, body kit, exhaust, etc. Wheels will be for sale next.

I custom matched the wheel paint by eye. I don't have the color code.

I need a car I can drive all year round. My 8 was a garage queen. The AWD will help a lot for the winters here.

I am so glad I don't have to mess with winter. But I am an ex WRX owner myself so you cannot go wrong. I was tboned at 40MPH and walked away with out a scratch. Great cars, sad to see you go.

Some recent shots of my car. I need to take more pictures of my new setup but for now I am too lazy. These pictures do not show all of them, but they will do for now.
