Seriously, cool lip, kinda high for what it is. But the nice subtleties is what makes a car stand out from most.

Did you guys go to the charge speed site? Did you see the impreza 5 door? Pretty awesome. Too bad the candy cost so much.

I didn't deal with charge speed directly,
There is 2 different versions of the lip, carbon fibre and I'd assume maybe plastic or fibre glass (no idea) which is half the cost

The US version website of Chargespeed only sells the Carbon fiber finish of the kit. They don't offer the FB version of it on the US website. Only in the Japanese website.

I love those steering wheels. Over $500 is a bit pricey... But I may be asking for this for Christmas. How are you liking it so far?

How easy is the DAMD steering wheel install? Is the wheel physically smaller in proportions to the stock wheel and is any drilling or cutting required? I'd really like to put a smaller wheel on my car if I can find a way.

All lights on:


Just LED strips:


Each Headlight: Lit for approximately 20 secs after engine shut down.

Are those LEDs on the inside of the headlight or outside of it?

Not sure how many people know about this but I have a friend who has a friend who works for borla r and d and who said they will be coming out with an exhaust system for our car sometime in October. See the YouTube link.

Very excited:

As long as there's no highway drone (70-80mph), I'm all in.
