Only thing I disliked about the Red wrx was the painted interior...that's just me, never liked how it looks when it's a DIY
No offense...
But everything else on that car looks great.

Def not!!!! lol.... as stated just the RA-R grill pinstripping is DIY... I just haven't seen anyone do it on a CF grill yet.

It took a while to get my hands on that CF piece too.

-Painted Stock Rims (flat black) (wrote a How-To)
-Painted Headlights (black)
-Painted BPV and filler caps (flat black)
-Debadge + JDM and TEIN badging in rear
-Front Emblem color change (flat black) (wrote a How-To)
-Front badge pillar removed
-Painted Mesh Grille for Hood (flat black)

Most people who don't know Subarus assume the wheels are aftermarket. I let them assume.

Also I don't have the body kit or any decals on it anymore. They all came off. Kinda old pics.
