To what color? I'm thinking my stock wheels will become winter tires. Damn you for not having to deal with that lol.

I have no idea. Maybe black. Kind of predictable I guess. Metal gray.

Jdub.csu · 05-25-2012, 10:26 PM

Black wheels on white subies always look good

themaus · 05-26-2012, 12:25 AM

I see that you bought your Car from Shumacher too. Are they mod friendly? I've read horror stories about dealers voiding warranties yet they totally replaced your motor at no cost? I'm hesitant to go Stage 2 in my WRX...

jockeygolfs · 05-26-2012, 06:37 AM

Yes at no cost. Now I was a frequent customer for oil changes so maybe that played a part. I'm pretty friendly with everyone as well. They know me. But either way I think they are friendly w mods. I had a lot done that you can visually see and they were ok. But if you are worried about blowing an engine and not prepared to pay out of pocket then be very careful. I was ready to go with my other block if Subaru didn't cover the work.

themaus · 05-26-2012, 10:19 AM

Thanks for the info...I'll see what they have to say when I go in there for the first oil change. Awesome car btw.

jockeygolfs · 05-26-2012, 10:35 AM

I wouldn't say anything to them. Put the ap away when you get the oil changed. You will be fine.

And thanks!

Thank you! this thread made the first 2 hours of my work day go by quickly =)

jockeygolfs · 05-26-2012, 12:41 PM

Cool. Glad I could help out

jockeygolfs · 05-26-2012, 10:23 PM

Hmmm, SMY Clustermaker sells HT Auto body lips. Hmmmmm seems like good quality at great prices. Thinking of front, side and rear lips plus diffuser.

That's the cluster I ordered for my car =)

jockeygolfs · 05-27-2012, 12:46 AM

Cool man. It s a great piece. My AEM gauges are a bit thick though so I don't get to use high beams anymore.

What do you mean?

jockeygolfs · 05-27-2012, 01:04 AM

The bezel on the AEM gauges is thick so it pokes out a lot from the SMY cluster. I think Defi gauges are much thinner at the bezel.

jockeygolfs · 05-27-2012, 09:24 AM

Just placed my order for the HT Auto front lip.

Jdub.csu · 05-28-2012, 12:18 AM

Hmm I'd like to see that diffuser in person

jockeygolfs · 05-28-2012, 06:56 AM

I am going to get the package that includes the sides, rear and diffuser in a couple weeks. Figure get the lip now and Check out quality. Plus shipping is free so no big deal on ordering multiple times. I did a lot of reading about them on IWSTI and it seems as though people are happy.

jockeygolfs · 05-28-2012, 07:16 AM

I like the Varis stuff as well:

But it is expensive. I like the rear diffuser of the Varis better than the HT Auto but i think cleaning my exhaust tips would be a bitch to do with the Varis.

ã€é€Ÿå±ã€‘æ±äº¬ã‚ªãƒ¼ãƒˆã‚µãƒãƒ³2012 with NAPAC ï¼ VARIS Booth - YouTube

Go to about 4:45 into the video to skip all the other cars. I love the front bumper minus the canards.

Jdub.csu · 05-28-2012, 12:59 PM

Woah 1,700 for the rear ! Yikes

jockeygolfs · 05-28-2012, 02:37 PM

Yes too much for something that can easily be damaged.

Exactly, not worth it to me
