I have a hard-on for Subarus, especially bugeyes. The only thing I would do different would be either go wingless or put the wrx trunk deck back on it. Glad you changed the headlights though, the set that came on the car were hideous.

I really liked the first headlights. I've never seen those on a Bug eye before (i know they were painted) You should really go back to those. :goodjob:

Thanks guys... I'm usually a wingless fanboy as well, but I love the way the STI wing ended up flowing with my bugeye.

Anthony, as for the headlights... I liked the Morettes a little, but I'm really a fan of the "bugeye" look and I felt that the Morettes took away from that. Thanks again for your comments guys!

I can agree with that... I think the STI wing is the ONLY one I can tolerate though, I do dig the first set of headlights better...

Thanks, like I said... just wanna stay with the "bugeye" look... Plus, I was to eventually get a JDM grill which you can't run with the Morettes ;)

about 230 to the wheels. Go get a protune, or better yet throw a vf-34 on there and protune

Looks good what you've done. The black/red wheels look better IMO other than that it's pretty clean.
