Tay its looks good but personally I think you should get 17s since that rear wheel setup just seems to look funny that tucked with the color combo and the rivets

I love the car don't get me wrong, but I don't get it.. At least with 17's his car wouldn't have to look like the fenders had a fight with a staple gun.

Not tryin to hate on slammed sti's but if you're going to make a car scrape please do it to some ****ty old lexus or something.

Fitment is nice, ruining any chance on a re-sale for a beautiful car isn't. WRX isn't supposed to be v.i.p. ; To each is it's own I guess.

I don't like how 17's look. Don't get wrong, some car have pulled them off nicely. For example that silver WRX from bag riders on the RS's. 17's would drop the car another inch, and I love how low the car is now esp with how the rears are tucked. I feel like it wouldn't look as good as the car does now on 18's. I respect your input, but I'm going to stick with 18's.

To address the fight with the staple gun. My rear fender have an aggressive pull. That's why I had to use this many rivets. I could simply have the rivets paint match to the car and 95% of people wouldn't even notice them. I like how the rivets looks, that's why I haven't had them paint matched. Again it's all personal preference. And as for the ****ty old Lexus comment, a cars value will differ from person to person. I've talked to plenty of people who think Subarus are pieces of ****. And by no means is my car VIP. You should go to the VIP forums and check out their builds, they put my car to shame. The amount of fender and body work that goes into some of those cars is amazing. I understand resale will be hurt, but I don't plan on getting rid of this car anytime soon... or raising it for that matter. Lol. Like you said, to each their own. You don't have to like my car just respect the work that went into making it what it is.

I hope those 8 people look at that frame before they make an offer. I love the look Silver Sedan and the style but frames like that kill a cars value IMO.

I don't think people should be giving Tay advice. You should be taking notes.

Its the carriage he is dragging... He can zip that off by removing four bolts and put a new on one. He is driving the car the way he likes too. Do all of you really buy a car and the whole time you own it think to yourself oh cant do this hurts re sale cant do this might not be worth as much... Sounds like an excuse to me, good job sitting behind a computer screen and hating on something that you are too scared to do.. Keep being mad...

@tay since I don't want to quote that much

I wasn't trying to hate on your car at all man.. I wouldn't be looking at this fourm if I didn't like how the cars looked?

I'm a fan of the style of lowered subaru's; doesn't bother me at all. I was trying to compare like the old sc300's that are like 2-4k to a 10k wrx. You put a lot of time and effort to get your car how it looks, and I respect that.

I aplogize for the way that came out. I shouldn't have said the staple gun thing because that makes it sound like it looks like a p.o.s. which it doesn't..

I'm sorry for the way I said things. It's a nice car, just i'd be skeptical to do it with how much risk you can take just driving it around.

I'm not mad at all lol.. was just making a point of how much the rivets stand out to me.

the setup on the car looks great, was just thinking through what could happen if you hit one to many potholes or something. ( some you can't avoid in DC trust me... )

Props for the only real damage being to the bottom of the car. I'm suprised you haven't gone through a few lips / bumpers while having it as a dd.

Again, it's the internet and some things when said don't come out the way your trying to say it.
