Awesome car the new ISM looks so much better than the older SSM I usually hate silver but this one is perfect congrats on the purchase I'm sure you will fall in love like me!

 

I believe I have already fallen in love. I just wish I had unlimited money to do everything I want but thats part of the game.

 

Your wheels look very glossy for plasti dip. Is that a photo edit or did you use something on them? I've been some in person and they dont look near as nice, not glossy at all even with the glossifier.

 

I used about 6 coats of black and 5 of the glossifier. I was honesty suprised by the turn out as well when I did them

how long ago did you do them? and do they still look gloss black?

 

They have been done for about 2 months and if I wash them real well they are still pretty glossy. They just get dirty so quick

How many cans did you need to do all 4, looks great and I want to do this too but was kinda worried it wouldn't turn out like that! And also what exact color black did you use thanks

 

Plastidip has only one black. Anthracite grey is couple shades lighter but black is black. Depending on how many coats you do 1 can per wheel should do. Sorry for the thread jack.

I admire your wheels too chief, im jealous, I need more gloss haha.

 

Thanks, just wasn't sure of there were diffrent forms of black. But ya I'm definitely doing this to mine!

 

Advice I can give, take your time. And the more coats the better it looks

I didn't put enough onto mine when I did them. Started to look pretty lousy after a little while so I got them powder coated. You got quite the deal on the SPT exhaust. Excited to see this continue. Also, Eric at Torqued Performance is great to work with.

 

Ya that turned out perfect I hope mine do to, I'm guessing you left the wheels on the car?

 

Yes I left the wheels on the car and trashed bagged the brakes. Also I hear Eric is a great dude and really easy to work with.

How was the powdercoating process? Price?

Process was super easy. I got mine done for $250. I got them done when I was getting new tires so I wouldn't have to get tires remounted or anything. I have some pics in my "build" thread lol you can take a look at. It actually looks pretty similar to the finish on yours. I got 20% gloss black.

 

Yep. He would have the updated map back within an hour usually. He is also really helpful on answering any questions on parts of other Subaru related stuff.

 

Awesome thanks for the info. Well Christmas came early/ my wife let me open an early present. Black with red logo Rally Armor mud flaps. Im excited to get them on!!

 

That's pretty dope man! I love the black rims, and we've the same color WRX.

 

Whoop whoop, just picked up a set of OEM black fender garnishes!

Over the past week or so I have done a few things to the WRX.

First up, the wonderful present from my wife. Rally Armor Mud Flaps:





Next was the OEM Black Fender Garnish with the Red vinyl inserts:







After that I decided to polish the SPT Exhaust since it was FILTHY.
Before:


After:





During the next few days I'm deciding what I want to do next. Definitely going to get a short throw shifter and most likely a Bayson R CS front lip.

 

Next was the OEM Black Fender Garnish with the Red vinyl inserts:

I like the red in the side ornaments. I'm planning on doing something similar with my car, white instead of red though. Did you get the vinyl inserts somewhere, or did you make them?

 

Hey Chief

I got mt 2014 at Heuberger too they're awesome. Have you been to torqued performance yet? What did it cost you for your pro tune? Did you get an Access Port too?

Up in Boulder--

No i have not been to torqued performance, I believe they moved to Oregon but Im not 100%. I do not have a pro tune yet, still just running the cobb stage 1 on the accessport.

 

Scratch the previous wanted items short throw and Bayson R front lip. I have pulled the trigger on a set of Swift Sport lowering springs. I got an offer I couldn't refuse.









Im excited to get them installed but from what I hear it is a PITA to do. Should have nice weather here in Colorado on Friday so Im hoping to get them done then. Ill for sure post pictures of a before and after when complete.


Just for fun a photo from the other night while waiting for a buddy at the Denver Airport.

 

Dude your car looks sick man. I wanted a silver STI but ended up with a white one because the wait would have been too long. It took six weeks to get my white and that was long enough :woocow:

What did those springs set you back?

Happen to catch a steal on them, picked them up for a cool $180. SWP is a great color, I believe it opens up more options for wheel colors too. With silver some wheel colors dont look as good.
