Looks sick! I went with the plasma blue.
awesome car, what running lights are you using?

Ah tell me about it. Almost impossible to keep clean and the clear coat is all streaky...I am looking into getting a better paint job this spring!
I have have the color changing LED turn signal bulbs installed, but the actual lights are stock. The LED turn signals flash orange when the blinker is on but run clear. Here is a link to where I got them. Color-Changing LED Turn Signal Bulbs - Lighting

I'll look into that...Thanks for the advice! On a side note, the front driver side A-pillar and front of my hood have paint chips from driving in the winter. I never had that issue with my 2006 impreza 2.5i (even after driving 5 winters in Maine). I contacted SOA and they are going to give me $500 to repaint them. The guy I talked to who is going to do it (next spring after the winter) told me that it would be a shame to have a great paint job on the hood and a sh##ty paint job on the rest of the car. I am going to mull it over this winter, but I will look into the opti-coat idea too.
Thanks again!

Thanks! The pictures don't really do it justice. Everyone who gets in says they can't believe it didn't come like that. I highly recommend JPM Coachworks. I had a question and when I called I talked directly to Alex, who I believe is the owner, and he walked me through my question. The shifter was super easy, but the brake boot was slightly more difficult.
Did you paint your OEM wheels or did you get them powder coated? They look great.

Got them powder coated. They had some pretty severe curb rash and they fixed that all up good as new. Couldn't be happier with how they came out!
