my wife thinks I'm an idiot also. and I'll probably swap the plate lights back sooner than later because i already get pulled over for stupid things already like the exhaust and the tint on the lights. but, it looks cool though....

I think they look cool too but the ensuing harassment and tickets won't likely be worth it. Leave 'em. Maybe you'll get away with it.

I actually like the Crosstrek wheels. I don't know why, everything about them says I shouldn't.

Apparently the Crosstrek is only like 144lbs heavier than the impreza.... And there really isn't huge differences between the two. The inside is supposed to be exactly the same I guess. I haven't been in one so I am not sure. I have heard it's a 5dr impreza that's lifted and a few suspension changes. But hey, it's pretty sweet... And yeah, I dig the wheels for sure.

My winter prep work is almost done. Included pics for most of what's been taken care of thus far.
Started with some tint and clear bra installation (front, hood, fends and mirrors) from the great team at CCA Motorsports. Cannot recommend them enough and the great work they do. People ask all the time where to get tint done and hands down the level of detail done is unmatched. Can't begin to express how great it is to have clear bra either, pony up the money folks, you will not regret ever getting it. A true life save to your paint with gravel we have to endure during the winter and breakup season. http://imgur.com/JSsxY Next up, got a steal on some factory SE BBS wheels that were going to be prepped and powdercoated. Owner decided to just sell off and reduce his current fleet of wheels. Wasn't really sure what I wanted to with them since they're for the winter. I decided to just prep, prime and paint w/ clearcoat the wheels in black. At this point I like it so much I'll probably redo them for the more durable powdercoating next season. The set was in pretty much great to near perfect condition. However, I used some filler from Hi-Tech Paint on Lake Otis to fill in the very minor chips (only a couple) that I found. Let that harden, sanded by hand and then proceeded to sandblast the wheels overall and finish the corners/edges by hand. Primer/filler, sanded lightly and cleaned. Started to layer on the paint, followed by the clearcoat, then finished with heat lamps to help hurry the process as snow was coming down. Wheels were wrapped in Hakkapelida 2s. Was my first time ever doing this, I feel they came out pretty decent. http://imgur.com/um1lH http://imgur.com/i23cl http://imgur.com/yXn3G http://imgur.com/Pj3AH http://imgur.com/WrEhI http://imgur.com/pBTPC http://imgur.com/SNfae http://imgur.com/QWo2C http://imgur.com/jvjCX http://imgur.com/D3ogM http://imgur.com/NCi2k http://imgur.com/po7Ag Next in the prep labor work of things done is credited to the great team at Underground Performance. The level of pressionalism and workmanship they've provided is greatly appreciated. (Tribal Mike, Nick and Chris thanks a ton) To start off a full fluid change(oil + filter, transmission, transfer case, rear differential and lastly coolant) was done with all Amsoil products that I had ordered. Signature 5w30 for the Oil MTG GL4 + Syncromesh combo/blend for the tranny Severegear 75w90 for the t-case and rear diff http://imgur.com/haQwg In addition to all that, had the timing belt, balancing belt and serpentine belt replaced (Gates Racing). All necessary tensioners and idlers with OEM or Gates parts as well. Updated OEM Cylinder bracket, crank sensor blade and assembly.(finishing tomorrow) All done to address a common manufacture problem in the 9s. http://imgur.com/uiGQr http://imgur.com/ffFnR http://imgur.com/yBdIa Next up, Vortex generator paint matched w/ OEM S2k shorty antenna http://imgur.com/zfahH http://imgur.com/rbqtJ Rally Armor Classic Mudflaps (Thank you Seth for the great price on these) http://imgur.com/pCiT9 http://imgur.com/o8REJ Beatrush Underpanel. Complete underpanel skid plate, took me awhile to source one out as they're no longer made. DRTPLZ and I took awhile translating the Japanese only instructions and also making adjustments to the overall fitment. May need to make some more custom changes down the line, primarily more clearance for the downpipe. http://imgur.com/kRU8V http://imgur.com/OEr7b http://imgur.com/msr5G http://imgur.com/6GS5b http://imgur.com/hDN51 A better view what it looks like since the car is not raised high enough http://i329.photobucket.com/albums/l...Underpanel.jpg Lastly, raised the ride height up 1inch on the coilovers for obviously some more clearance through the snow. That's pretty much it for now. Have a custom fabricated HVAC relocation kit in the making, OEM JDM center bezel on order for a double din install. Probably a PLX 4 sensor hookup as well to compliment later this month. |

Good stuff EvolvedAK. That underpanel is sweet!. I really need a skidplate for mine. It would act like a sled panel for me. I see the dragging trail of my diff in the snow in the center of my driveway.

Good work, Brian. I really like how your EVO is coming along. It's cars like yours that make me want to jump ship to the Evolution platform.
