Had some interior parts CF wrapped, and resmoked the headlights... Also, a while back put on a trunk lip spoiler, shown here as well.
I'll take better pics hopefully this weekend, when I can do a full shoot after a wash. |

Went to R&H Garage, got Whiteline Rear end links put on, positive shift kit, and LED's on the front with independent switch.
No good pics of it yet, but try to take some later this weekend for whomever cares. I know the LED's arent for everyone, but given that i also dont have fog lights, its good secondary source... http://www.amazon.com/Philips-12820WLEDX1-DayLight-Powered-Daytime/dp/B005DX6BRK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1340946936&sr=8-1&keywords=B005DX6BKW|B005DX6BRK Steering rack bushings will be going on next, but the package contents didn't include all the pieces |

Fresh wash and wax, figured I'd go for a drive and find some various places to stop off and shoot:

Stage 2 today, whiteline steering rack bushings, removed spacers (in prep for wheels, and cause rubbing is lame), and fresh wash.
Boy does the car drive a lot nicer. Definitely much more noticable going from Stage 1 - Stage 2 for me than it was going stock tune to Stage 1. The pull in all gears is significantly better, regardless of where you are at in the powerband. Pulling even from 2k RPM it starts spooling up quick and just feels a lot more torque'y. Very happy with the upgrade and will even look to potentially upgrade to a Custom map (or protune should i decide to add some mods). Removed the spacers because i was bottoming out with the H&R springs, and I do want to get some 18's at some point. Also given the fact that I have some good power behind the car now and some suspension mods, I felt it was extremely detrimental to have the spacers and rub while pushing the car around corners or over bumps. It is crazy how much better the 25mm spacers look on the car though as it completely removes wheel gap, and on the stock suspension setup, is fully functional without any rubbing issues. |

Picture of the Switch back LED's...Not sure if the wiring is correct because they seem a lot more blue purplish then white

Dim is the word. Usually those LED signals are very bright.
Explain the wiring?. How many LED per bulb? |

60.. I got them off Fastwrx.com (http://www.fastwrx.com/coledtusibu.html) so I know they're supposed to be brighter. I'm wondering if it's just because of the powering i have for the LED DRL's too...?

Subscribed because I have a 2012 ISM as well and I have wanted to do just about everything you have done except with some red accents on small areas as well. Fantastic thread. Keep it up man. Sad that i'm completely across the U.S. from ya though

Aw man, send me your thread when you create one, always like to see others and get ideas. I think I'll try wrapping or Plastidip'ing my hood scoop this weekend, see how it looks with the other black accents I got. I know it looked pretty good on WRB and SWP... |

The parking lights are just tinted, you can look into laminx sheets and do it yourself if you like, or i think there are companies that make them precut, but I wouldn't recommend that. Pre cut doesnt leave any room for error or compensating like the sheets. I don't have the STI wing, but, they probably just did a trunk swap with someone who had an STI but wanted wingless look (without having to fill the trunk holes) |

I was originally, and still might, but for a quick fix/change, I just wanted to see how it would look with just Emblems and I really like how it pops. The whole fender badge being black would look okay with overall accents, but I do like how you can actually read the WRX legibly...
