1)Everything bolts right up. No modification was necessary whatsoever. Use extended hangers but it will still touch the bumper. Right now it's cold so it's not melting but I intend to fabricate a bumper cut out from an 08/09 WRX Rear Diffuser...once I get my hands on one.
2) Yep. Just the catback. I have no engine mods as of yet. For the price that a WRX cat can be had for, it's well worth it for both the sound and appearance. I did not want anything loud or ricey, we're just 2.5s anyway. This is the perfect balance of a deep, yet subtle growl with a calm G35ish sound when accelerating. No drone either. I may be mistaken but I could swear I hear a slight rumble when waiting at lights too. Hope I helped. |

Just took my grill out and bought some steel concrete mesh. Anybody know of a good DIY? I have a pretty good understanding if what I plan to do but I have no dremel. Will post pics when done.

Gonna put the grill back tomorrow. Pretty satisfied with the outcome especially since I didn't really have a plan. Just don't know if I should paint it black or not. Paprika colored car. |

Pretty satisfied for 10 bucks. Especially without having much of a plan. Just deciding to paint it black or not. Paprika sedan. |

That looks pretty good man. Where did you get the honey comb mesh from? Local home depot store or equivelant?

Did you get the kit from lightwerkz or theretrofitsource? I currently have the lightwerkz 35w 6000k pnp kit in my halogen projectors and its okay but I want to upgrade to get a better cutoff and maybe go to a 55w kit. No problem man, just here to help! |

It's the same package from LW or TRS. The only difference is the ballast. With TRS you get the Matsu****a ballast which is OEM from Subaru and mounts in the OEM location, LW gets you the regular Morimoto ballast. No difference really except a cleaner, more OEM looking install.
Oh..ok, I guess I'll skip the underseat option. I just don't want a box or anything in my trunk. One it looks childish (to me), attracts thieves (I live in NYC) and takes away useful trunk space. |
