    Here's a couple pix of my car! 09 WRX (sorry cellphone quality)

    Previous set up: Enkei RPF1's 17x8 35off 225/40/17 Continental DWS




    I sure do miss that set up. About 2 months later.. (Sorry for ****ty Instagram pic)



    Rota G-Forces 18x9 35 offset Federal 225/40/18 Full CS Style Lip Kit

    About a month and a half or so later.. Cusco LCA's installed



    Rolled fenders! I did the fronts myself the driver side looks pretty horrible compared to the passenger side.


    Maxed out the coilovers in the front and rears



    Going up the gf's driveway makes it look lower than it is.

    Washed and Waxed


    Just went scoopless today, will paint the hood soon!!

    Kinda curious, what do you think a "sleeper" car is? You're lowered, have aftermarket wheels and a full lip kit... If I saw it I would think it was ricey or that there was a lot of work done under the hood too, definitely not a sleeper car. A sleeper is not at all showy in my book

    I'm curious about the scoopless hood. Isn't that scoop kinda' important for cooling the intercooler?

    I think the OP means "sleeper" because of the scoop delete. It does add a bit to the sleeper dept. Still, a 2002-2007 Wagon with a FMIC and scoop delete is much more of a sleeper

    It's not dead. The mechanic just hasn't bothered to take the time to fix it. I'm picking it up in two weeks and fixing it.

    Thanks for the input fellas! hahaha. Yeah I got some "MINOR" stuff done to the car pushing the stock turbo close to its limit, almost though, almost!

    Next step for me is to get a wingless trunk to match the scoopless hood and of course get the hood painted.
