I'll try, but I only know a few people with 02-07 Impreza sedans.

I did a double take before I realized that you had a Rigid Industries light in there. Apparently my attention skills are a little low tonight.

Well i've never seen that before. Nice work!

vms150 · 11-10-2012, 11:22 AM

I'm sorry but that looks like complete and total garbage

ea126405 · 11-10-2012, 12:16 PM

Appears as though on-coming drivers might crash as you approach.....

bushman95 · 11-10-2012, 12:37 PM

why did you put legos in your headlights? lol

krzywhtboi82 · 11-10-2012, 05:41 PM

Is that the finished product?

thebeephaha · 11-10-2012, 06:12 PM

Sorry but that is not classy looking at all.....

opey · 11-10-2012, 06:18 PM

yea sorry those headlights look like a complete hack job..

garudatwo · 11-10-2012, 06:23 PM

Photography isn't my thing, so put up with some crappy in-progress pics:

Updates:
Alcantara upper door trim, door armrest, STI shifter trim
1080 CF center AC trim, middle door trim, HU trim

To do:
center console, center console armrest, A pillar SRS cutouts, shift boot, ebrake boot, shift knob (baseball style wrap/stitch).

That's awesome!!! Jealous. Here's my crack at it. Im getting some help from someone with experience for the middle section because I failed horribly at it. But its my first attempt.

Yours look great, I'll take some daytime shots tmr (flash tends to ruin photos). The fabric steamer helped a lot.

I'm a fan of your center dash, everything seems to flow better. Mine has the awkward AC trim interrupting the flow.

Thanks. Yeah from what I read a steamer would help a lot.

Looks excellent!

garudatwo · 11-11-2012, 01:52 PM

Look a little better in natural light, yes?

Did the center console and center armrest today. Going to fabricate the ebrake and shifter boot when my friend brings the sewing machine.

That's looks nice. I'd pay to have some one do mine

Zulu- · 11-11-2012, 01:57 PM

Man, those headlights are awful.

LED high beams are cool though, but the application leaves something to be desired.

Everything looks awesome except the air bag cover. It just looks kind of weird/out of place even with all the other parts covered.

garudatwo · 11-11-2012, 02:20 PM

Would probably look less so when I get the actual steering wheel covered, which might be a while I'm still trying to make a good template right now.

I'm considering doing the glovebox, but I feel it might ruin the flow from the dash to the door trim, since right now it goes from Alcantara to Alcantara, CF to CF, plastic to plastic.

Thank you for the constructive criticism, they do bring up valid points that I have to consider

Oh, I removed the CF wrap from the sides of the HU trim, so there's a little less CF compared to the pics I posted last night.
