nice man. i initially had hopes of having the the lip and fender even but its not really worth it. im pretty nervous about putting more preload on the springs since the ride at this point isnt so glorious. let me know how that works out for you.
once i mess with the setup some more ill be happy with 3/4" front and rear. ill post some more pics in a few weeks once i get new shock bodies. bummed it wont be done for WBM

It's clearly a WRX in the picture and should definitely fit my car. Should I just get it and hope that it fits? It's hard to pass up for $64.
I have the same lip i believe, but i got mines from jna

I assume its the bayson r sti lip from 08-10, and not the sti lip for cars between 11-13 that fit the na premium/sport bumper?

I only see the two on eBay right now.

That's correct. It's actually not even the bayson r one, I got one of the cheaper ones that look just like it though. Here is the link to what I got:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/221139342061...84.m1497.l2649

It came a little bent but it had hardware with it, cant even tell when it's installed.

So Im in the market for a new wheel set up for my 09 sedan.. i found these wheels http://www.elementwheels.com/proddet...ck-MgodtRsATQ# they are 18x8 with +30 offset which is odd because haven't really seen anyone running that off set.. i see every goes +35 on 9 inch width and +25 on a 8 inch width. Just wondering if they would fit correctly and flush with the body. Thanks

All the offsets you've listed are kinda low in my opinion. But I know 9+35 is pretty flush in the rear with stock linkage.

I love it. I have an OEM lip on it too, so I hope it fits just as nice. I'm definitely painting it!

Threw a cel today on my way home from the desert/dunes. Surprisingly enough it does pretty damn well in sand. Nothing broke or anything which is weird lol. Gunna try to find somewhere to pull the code because apparently autozone doesn't do it anymore. They told me "California/Florida only mechanic shops are allowed to pull codes". I call horse **** -_-

Not sure if this is something to be concerned about. Possible fist stages of a head gasket leak?

Any consensus as to Sways vs. Springs if you could only do one right now?

Already have 16 or 17mm in the rear.

Goal: Corner better, *then* stiffer ride altogether.

Is there even a point to doing anything to a hatch automatic 2010 2.5i? Aesthetically and mechanically?

If you already have a bar in the back I would go springs. But you will need better struts.
