New to the Subaru Club!

[CivicDXR]

Introducing Jen-Ette, my Satin White Pearl 2008 Subaru Impreza WRX.

This car previously belonged to my brother, but he has decided to go a different route, so I decided to try and sell the truck and take it over as it is more cost efficient for me in the end. Finally started driving it on Friday.

I didn't like the new design at first, but have grown to love it as I was helping mod it. Mods when my brother owned it (there was a previous thread on some of the work):

-Sport grille
-Debadged
-Cobb Springs
-Taillight overlay with the reverse cut out (I hated them stock)
-Ultimate Racing cat-back exhaust
-6000K HIDs
-Painted gold wheels (which doesn't surprise anyone that knows me fairly well)
-DIY 'Home Depot' Front lip

Stuff I've done since Friday:
-Reinstalled WRX badge (I may paint it gloss black)
-Cut out turn signals in taillight overlay
-Yellow foglight film
-Installed my Pioneer F700BT from my truck

Future plans (not much, I'm happy with it so far):
-replace 6000K HIDs with 4300K HIDs
-Rear chrome strip color matched overlay
-Wheels (not sure what kind yet)
-Pink 'i' emblems
-Ings +1 or Chargespeed Grille
-STi/WRX265 or Crawford Performance Wing
-Maybe Cobb Stage 1 suspension (front and rear sway)

Don't wanna mess with the engine just yet because of the warranty, but anyone else have any other mod suggestions that I could look at?

Here's a few pics, sorry she's dirty, hard to keep clean in this weather with all the snow melting.

Thanks! Nope, no patience, did the taillights, and never again. I commend those protection/3M film installers on their patience. Was done on Saturday at ShadowTint.

I'm not a huge fan of the new style, but the painted wheels, drop & grille clean it up a bunch.

Congrats :thumbsup:

She looks good I was the same way, I wasent too fond of the new style when it was first released. But now I'm not sure about the previous generation.

As for slight mods, I've always loved rally armour mud flaps and the painted trim on the hatch instead of the crome(below the six star symbol on the hatch like the STi) looks pretty sweet too!

[psycoticclown]

That car is hawttttttt! Congrats!
