Sup everyone, the name is Brendan; currently living in Morgan Hill, CA. This is my second car and my previous was an 08 Civic SI. My SI was flushed out and I decided to go for more of an aggressive look for my Scoob and wanted more of a Form and Function type build. I bought her used on late October 2011 with 17K miles on her, 100% stock.

Added a Perrin BPV for a few hundred miles and then sold it.

Next was a full makeover with OEM Rain Visors, BC BR Extreme Low Kit coilovers and traded my stock wheels for 18x9.5 +22 225/40 Rota DPT in hyper black. and also debadged the WRX logo.
